Week 81 - Retiro

 This week was super good.  On Tuesday we did divisions with the Elders from Constitucion 2 and I went with Elder Jones who used to live in Spokane until he was 11 so that was fun.  (Tanner also told me when we talked that this Elder Jones now lives in Utah and went to Lone Peak High School and knows Jackson and Hayden Enloe).  On Sunday we had 12 people in church including the Sarzuri family.  Also Veronica and Omar, converts from my first ward in Boulogne came and visited and they are doing really well. (Tanner didn't have his camera with him so he asked this other American couple that happened to be visiting the branch to take a picture of Tanner and his comp and Veronica and this American couple texted the picture to Kirt.) The Sarzuri family has been progressing really well except for the dad.  All the kids went to a primary/youth activity and loved it.  But Ramiro, the dad, is having some troubles stopping drinking and hasn't been present in the last threes lessons.  They are getting married and baptized in a week and a half so that's very worrisome.  Another that we are teaching is a guy name Luis Poca who is 25 and his cousin who is 11.  Luis is super interested and come to church the last two Sundays and is preparing to get baptized on the 8th.  His little cousin Anali is super funny and super intelligent.  She has a question every two seconds and wants to know everything.  On Sunday I was supposed to give a talk in church but the other speakers spoke too long so I was ok with that.  Today for p-day we are gonna go to to a famous restaurant here called Siga la Vaca (Follow the Cow) which supposedly is like a huge meat buffet so that will be good.  It was a really productive week and tonight we get the new transfers so I am probably gonna get sent to another area.
