It's been another roller coaster of a week. Probably the craziest and saddest things that happened hit us early in the week. Remember the investigator I told you about who came up to us and told us she had been listening to the missionaries in Guayaquil and wanted to be baptized? She told us she wanted to be baptized as soon as possible? Well things were going great until Wednesday. We show up for an appointment and her family told us that she left and doesn't want to be baptized anymore. Yeah, like a bucket of water out of nowhere. That was really sad to hear about. But alas, if there is any good thing to be got out of it, it's the family is really humble and are really listening to us. So we'll continue working with them.
Other than that we still have lots of other investigators that we're teaching. One family in particular seems to be progressing fairly well. A single mother of 5 daughters (all about 10 and under I'd say) seem very interested. It was way exciting on Sunday--about five or ten minutes into the meeting, she walked in with her family!!! Ah, we've been inviting them for several weeks now and they finally came!!! I don't know, it was just really great to see them there.
Then Sunday Hermano Valencia came with us again driving us around in his car and oh man, it was funny, lol. He's just the type of guy who taks a lot and is funny without even trying.
All is well :) . I don't have much time left, so I'd better get going. Thanks for the letters and everything! I love you!
Love,

That's kind of a dirty trick!
