ha I'll take what I can get:)

So this was the best sunday I have yet seen here in the beautiful Uruguay. I LOVE THIS WARD AND AREA! However, When really good things pass, God has to let Satan Balance it. #oppositioninallthings :( Well, Ill take this opposition over pretty much any other. Today is the first day ive gotten sick in the mission. I had to get up 4 times during the night to go to the bathroom, but was still able to hike el cerro de pan de azucar today with the zone (haha not sure if that was the best Idea, but It was really fun. Right now, I am extreme3ly glad for warm cybers and Agua Tonica (Its a pretty awful drink, but it settles the stomach like no other.

So SUNDAY!!!!!!!!!!! We've been passing by Familia De Leon almost every day these past 2 week and finally they started acting. Persistance and a lot of contact really help people realize what is really important in life. They're on a 5 day streak of reading and praying as a family and came to church yesterday!!!!:D We also had 3 investigators in church yesterday (Alvro, Cynthia, and A new guy named Nohel) Nohel is actually the nephew of the family De Leon and they brought him with them. Yep, they're coming back, and bringing others with them.
 
Miracle that happened this week:D We were searching for this menos activo who I have never met before (my comp had 1 time before I got here and knew where he lived). Upon clapping the house, this lady came out . I recognized her immediately but couldnt figure out from where. After talking a bit, we realized that she is an investigator of the Hermanas in Pan de Azucar (haha I love the names of cities here) who had litterally just moved here. I recognized her because she intraduced (how do you spell that?) herself to us a couple weeks back when we were waiting for a bus in Pan de Azucar. We had spent a while talking to her that day, and now..... she just appeared out of now where right when she moved. IT was really cool. This means we have 5 investigators!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That is the most I have ever had here in the Little Europe of South America. IM SO STOKED!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
We also had a few cool charlas with some new menos activos that we have begun to work with. I love this place. It's turned into my most busy area with some incredible members.
 
Okay, I dont feel super good, so Im going to say bye now.
 
Love you all a whole heap,
Elder Eliason
