This week was awesome. My mother has asked for more detail in the email again so here it is.
Transfers
For a little backround, back in changuinola I was comps with elder Hulme and it was awesome. We had a bunch of fun, we worked hard, etc. The sad part was that we only got one transfer together, but yesterday I found out that he's coming to Narganá with me! We're going to be comps twice and I'm super excited. My old comp elder Baugh is now my new ZL so thats also awesome. It's going to be an awesome 6 weeks
Exchange kind of
Elder Griffiths came to nargana for a few days because elder baugh had to go do ZL stuff. It was super fun. Elder Griffiths came into the mission with me and is hilarious. Just an all around awesome guy.
Storm
So a few weeks back we had a massive storm with thunder that shook the house. That storm took out the internet in the church leaving us to use the data from our phone which just doesn't work half the time. We finally got the whole system for the internet and wifi in the church back up and running this week and it was great. Then yesterday we had an even BIGGER storm that flooded part of our house. More crazy thunder and lightning that gave me flashbacks to vietnam. Long story short, we no longer have internet in the church. It was fun while it lasted. We'll see how long it'll take someone to come out here and fix it. Again
Guna parade
The school this week had a small parade where all the kids walked together through the streets in their traditional clothing. I think they said it was international day of indigenous people, but I habe no way to confirm that. It was super cool and I was able to watch from the almost half finished second story of our house. Alas, I didn't have my phone to take pictures. Sorry mom. Next time.
