The Husband Named Hugo

This week was super amazing! I'm in a new area with a new companion and I love it! Here in Manta there is no rain or clouds and just straight sun. It's a lot of sweating everyday, all day long.  My comp always walks around with this huge sombrero.  Sometimes from behind he looks like a Chinese guy.

Last Saturday we had 3 baptisms! 4 in the ward.  There are 4 missionaries in the ward.  The zone leaders and us.  It was such a cool experience. So last Friday this couple, where the wife had been listening to the missionaries for 8 years and the husband who's been listing for 4 years got married on Friday and on Saturday got baptized.  After they got married, the husband named Hugo said that he feels the same haha.  He's super cool and never wears a shirt unless he has to go somewhere important.  Also, a girl who has been listening to the missionaries for like 2 and a half weeks.  This next week her sister said that she will get baptized.

I love this new area and I'm looking forward to what is coming up. Oh yeah, I went running with my comp on the beach one morning and there were tons of fisherman with their catches from that morning.  They had all the fish on the beach. There were tons of sharks like bull sharks and other types, but I don't know what they're called.  Also these swordfish but aren't swordfish, but pretty much the same. And barracuda and tons of big fish.  It was awesome. I know I didn't spell some of that right, but that's not too important.

Anyway everything is going good and just taking advantage of our sector and finding new people to teach and help and do all that we can to find more people to teach.  Love you guys so much.  Sorry I can't send pics, but this computer doesn't have a spot for my flash drive and it's been like that the past couple of times... sorry.

Hope everyone has an awesome week!!

Love,
