Week 31

Saturday Morning, I woke up in a whole new world.
Thursday we found out there was a special change. Friday Morning I was on an 8 hour bus ride to Santa Rita, Paraguay.
I left Niko and Praxedes, who are getting baptized this saturday. I left Suni, who`s getting Married and Baptized the 19th. I left Victor, the man that Elder Ramirez called the most Golden, Prepared investigator that he`s ever met in his life, and his awesome wife, who were both getting baptized the 26th. Haha, I left everything I had worked my guts out for. But Christ called, and my calling says that I`m to come.
The truth? God has everything worked out perfectly. I`m in Santa Rita now. It`s the most beautiful place I`ve ever been in in my life. It`s like a group of 30 year old, fun-loving, hard-working, goal-driven young couples got together and decided to build a city. The people here are happy. They laugh, and have a great sense of humor. There`s a positive, exciting, optomistic feel that permeates the air. This is a clean, vibrant people.
And half of them speak portuguese. ;_).
I`m out of time. Love you all.
2 days in, and we`ve already found an awesome, super prepared family, that are on date to be baptized.
We had 15 people in sacrament meeting yesterday. Rented building. We`re not a branch, we`re called a group. The church hasn`t even been here a year. Lots of people have never heard of Joseph smith or Mormons. What a chance, huh?
