Ysapy

Oh hello everyone back home!

Happy Valentine's Day tomorrow. I forgot that it was almost Valentine's day until I found a poster for some party they are having here. Crazy. Everything continues to go quite nicely in Ysapy. We've actually had a pretty interesting week.

It all started with some elders in my district in the other area of Ysapy. One of them has problems with his lungs and actually went home once for it, but got back on the mission to try again. They started acting up again so he got grounded in our house for 2 days. So we got to live in 4 for a little bit, and they'd just chill in our house for the day. They probably managed to rack up quite the cooling bill. (My first house in Paraguay with a little AC box.) So they finally got permiso to leave and go back to work, and the missionary got sick and now they think he might have dengue so now we moved our beds to their house and actually live with them. Woo! They have a lot of people that can get baptized really soon, so instead of just letting all of them drift away, Elder Harward and I decided to pick up the load for both areas and so we help teach their investigators too so that way everyone in Ysapy is happy. We just rotate with the non sick companion and someone stays with the sickly missionary. It makes for some interesting planning but everything is working out. And Elder Harward and I had 7 investigators in church so our side is still doing well! I'm glad we got blessed for helping the other missionaries out. Yeah! We had a cool family come to church, so we'll keep working with them. We also had lots of cool new people that we found and 2 have already come to church and it's just awesome.

Ysapy is doing super well and I'm stoked to stay here for a little while. Hopefully I'm not just here for a change or something dumb. That'd be my luck. And I probably just jynxed myself. Ugh. Anywho everything is doing well. We are working a lot and now meeting twice the amount of people because of the merging areas. It's kind of exciting.

Yeah! Other than that it's just business as normal. It's just hovering around 100 degrees which is never fun, but we're getting used to it and in March it starts to get less freakishly hot so that's good. Yeah! I hope you all have a good week full of excitment and cool things. I love you all!

Love,
Elder Morris
