August 8th

Another week passes by and everything is good. ya the tropical storm came through but i was dissapointed. it didnt really hit the DR very hard. The day it came through there was just cloud cover and it didnt rain. but the day before and the day after it rained pretty hard, but it i have seen it rain harder so i was kind of dissapointed. But President had has buy some extra food and water just in case so we had to be prepared. other than that we had a good week still struggling to get people to church but there are a few coming. We don't have any baptismal dates right now, but we are still working with Estephani and Juan and they still have the desire but are not sure. When people are going through the process of baptism satan puts more things in their way and makes it harder for them. 

We have found some new people and are working with them and hoping that they will accept the gospel. transfers are in a week we dont expect to get moved or have any changes but with a new president you never know. So we will have to see. we are going to the temple at the end of this month the 31 so if i forget to tell you my pday will be a wednesday on that day 

Right now our ward doesnt have a bishop so we are hoping to get one soon. are ward starts at 8 because we share a chapel with another ward. so they start at 10 and we at 8. they have 2 sister missionaries. one of which is aunt Jens niece. I keep forgetting to mention that. We found that out a couple of weeks ago. It was funny. such a small world.

Well that is about it from the DR this week I hope all is well with everyone and I am so thankfull for all of your support. Love you all so much.

con amor,
