Feliz Navid - Quito North, Ecuador

 Hey everyone hope you had a good Christmas!


My Christmas was good! It was really chill because our president said we had to stay inside all day but it was still good. It honestly just didnt feel like christmas because of how hot and humid is it here hahah.

This last week was a really good week, we went and visited some people and had two bapstims. It was crazy when we went and visited the people and we had to take like a 20min bus ride out of town then we walked like 20 minutes into the jungle. This family lived on a farm in the jungle. They literally had cows and pigs and chickens. Super awesome family though. They gave us a huge bag of Maracuya, which is a super popular fruit here because it grows like a weed. It makes the best juice though.

They baptisms were great as well. I was able to baptize again!
We went to there wedding in the morning and then we went to the baptism straight after! 

Im pretty excited for New years here! Its a tradition in Ecuador to make like huge pinatas, then on new years they just lit them on fire on the street. It like symbolizes burning all the bad things in the year away! So i will let you know how that is next week!

Miss you all! Have A Good New Years :)

  Hey everyone! Fat minute since I wrote an email but here I am! Last transfer I was only in an area for one transfer in Otavalo, it was literally on a volcano and the people were indigenous and it was just straight farm land. Even the Sacrament meetings were in Quechua. It was pretty dope honestly I got to learn a little bit of language. But then I got transferred about a week ago... Now I'm in the big city of Quito as a "finder" basically an assignment that we just contact all day and we just teach one lesson w people and it's like a lesson to really see if they are interested, and if they are we pass the to the area in the zone! So it's actually really dope but we are traveling a bunch and meeting a lot of new people. Also there's four of us and 2 of them are freshies from the mtc! And last week was awesome because we were able to find some that wants to get baptized in the future!
