Week of Unfortunate Events

 Hola!

I hope everyone has a great Thanksgiving week! It doesn't feel like November here because it is super hot. The heat here is different than I am used to! It's not humid, its more of a dry heat. Also, with the heat there have been more bugs and I have been getting so many bug bites at night. I have over 40 bites now. 

This week was pretty hard....a week of unfortunate events. With the heat no one has been outside during the day, so finding has been difficult. We also were supposed to have the baptism for our friend Juan Silva on Saturday, but we have not able to get in contact with him, so we had to cancel it. We still don't know what happened to him, because he hasn't been at his house. We hope he is okay! Then on Sunday our other friend, Juan Mesquita, didn't come to church so we will probably postpone his baptism. Also, when we got to church on Sunday the baptismal font had overflowed from when we filled it up on Saturday, thinking we would have a baptism. Hahaha! Luckily it didn't make too big of a mess and we got it cleaned up before church started! It made me laugh because it summed up our week!  

Although sometimes life is hard, I am trying to remember we have so much to be grateful for. I love the quote, "There is one thing we can do to make life sweeter, more joyful, even glorious. We can be grateful!" Even though this week was hard, I am grateful to be serving here in Uruguay, I am grateful for the opportunity to share the gospel and I am grateful for my Savior, Jesus Christ! 

Happy Thanksgiving!!!
