So this has been a crazy week! I was without out a bike for a few days because it was being repaired so that meant we walked a lot more than.... ever. But that meant we had less time to fill and more time to talk with random people which is awesome! On new years eve they want us in at 6 so that we don't get hit or shot or mugged or idk what else by the crazies out at night so we went to bed early! An extra hour of sleep does wonders! The last few days have been slow but we recieved some names from our bishop of possible new move-ins. but all of the houses we went to no one was there, the house didn't exist, or the house was actually a car repair shop.... but it was at least something we could return and report on! So to fill our nights we have been meeting with active members and sharing a missionary message trying to spark the missionary spirit. One house we went to both of the parents are deaf so the family signs for them. I am learning a little sign language... but not enough yet to be useful. However it was amazing to see how even the the words aren't said the spirit of what is said is still there. I am pretty sure that the official language of the gospel should be sign language for that reason!
Hope that all is well back home!
love
