Happy Valentines

Happy Valentines! I spent all of my Valentines day with 3 other single guys preaching about God. We also decided to sleep outside, because the weather was nice and we could see the stars (actually, I really want a hammock). But no, nothing special happened. Haven´t had a girlfriend in a year, and I´m willing to wait 2 more to find the right girl if that´s what it takes.

In general, things are good here. They´ve slowed down a bit, but we´re still working hard. Strange things happen regularly, so I don´t know what´s notable and what isn´t anymore. An example would be a lady who asked us to fill her garafon with water at the station about a mile away because she couldn´t carry it, and when we got back she basically taught US how many people get confused trying to follow God and go down the wrong path, and we need a way to know what´s right. And then she told us to read the Bible more and the Book of Mormon less. She wasn´t willing to listen, so we bore our testimonies and left. Strange lady.

While playing basketball today, an investigator from a different ward who was going to get married this week and baptized this Saturday injured his leg, so that really stinks. Hopefully he´ll still be able to go through with everything, because if they hospitalize him or operate he can´t get baptized or married for quite some time. I can´t imagine what would have happened if the injured was one of us. Hopefully he gets well soon. A couple of our investigators are going through some hard times right now too, but we´ll see what we can do. God works miracles all the time here, after all. Remind me to tell you about the Romo Family some time.

Other than that, not too much has happened this past week. Well, things happen, but I don´t participate. The Cabalgata is an example. The annual fair is starting here, and they have a parade of horses through the city. Supposedly it´s just an excuse to get drunk though, so we thought we´d keep clear. One of our investigators does Parkour though, so that´s pretty cool. I´m doing my best to keep learning and improving as a missionary. I hope all is well at home, and I love to hear from you all. No insurance issues, no doctor problems, no ward chior (although we actually were talking about changing that just yesterday). I´m doing alright.

Love you,
