Hello everyone. So I have a couple fun stories for this week. It all started on
Monday when i got sunburned to a level of red that i had not to this point experienced in my life. Our zone got together to play sports and we played for a long time. So yeah that was fun. I also managed to burn the back of my knees in the sun, so walking was rather difficult. The day after was just new years so we slept a long time to try and recover. It worked for my companion, but for me, not very much. So yeah that is how that went. I tried many Argentine home remedies to try to fix all my problems. I made some mate and then put it in the fridge and then put that on my body with a rag that i cut from a blanket. Also a thing we tried was putting a cup of water upside down on my head and like bubbles went up through the water and apparently that was supposed to help. Also I have tried drinking various amounts of water, and i think i have peed more hours than i have slept this week. Still my head hurts pretty bad. I think it might be heat stroke, but now it is getting kind of better, so baby steps. It was pretty crazy. I spent most of my days in a members house wasting away while my comp went on splits with members to try and visit all the appointments. It did not go great. It was a rough week for everybody hahaha. So yeah. We also went to the doctor on Friday, and it was not a scary doctor place. It was actually like a good american doctor place. And there they just told me to drink more water and they gave me a cream to rub on my burns. It helped a lot. So those were the fun adventures of this week in the health department. Good stuff.

Also, we have lots of people that are progressing here. We had 7 friends in the church, so that was nice. Some of them still have to get married or learn more, but there are baptisms so that is good. Just keep swimming.
Entonces, realmente se q Jesucristo es mi salvador. Se q a veces tenemos pruebas y dificultades y a veces parece q no hay porque. Siempre hay un propósito, a veces sufrimos para aprender o para q vea Dios hasta donde llega nuestra fe. A veces sufrimos para q podamos ayudar a otras personas en el futuro. Siempre hay un propósito. Se q al seguir adelante recibimos muchas bendiciones y seremos mejores personas. Se q lo dificil es bueno y q podemos hacer cosas dificiles con la ayuda de Dios.
See you all in 5 months! (Whos counting tho?)
