Ethan Rasmussen Quito Ecuador Mission June 2021 - June 2023

  Hola!!  This week was a lil crazy.. last Monday it was a normal Pday and then that night we got told that we were gonna have transfers on Tuesday. I really didn't think much of it because I was only in Quinindé for 3 months and usually people are there for a really long time hahah. The next day comes around and I get told that I'm going to the coldest place in the mission hahaha. Tulcan, It's right on the border of Colombia, like 10 min drive, and super high in the mountains. It's like high 50s and low 60s everyday. I ended up having to take a 11 hour bus ride which was really fun. I am in a trio with Elder Toapanta from Quito and Elder Simmons from Idaho. We are thinking we aren't gonna be staying together for very long because the Colombian borders is supposedly opening really soon. So the Elders that live here are gonna move to Colombia and someone's gonna open a new area and get that house but you never know really. This area is sick though I love it, it...

  Hola!! Sorry been a minute since a email... Transfers happened last week and im staying here with my companion! My district leader and his comp are now sharing a ward with us!  This week flew by! My district leader and his companion were suppose to move in into there new house this week but they went there and it was soo gross and it had no power hahah. So they have been living with us for the past week in our tiny house. We finally got notice that we can visit houses again, the last two weeks we werent able to because of covid but we can again! So super hyped for this week because we are teaching a bunch of people that want us to go to their house but we have been able to! We also had two baptisms the past two week! Seeing their joy from it really makes worth of the grind! Sum pics
