I just first like to say that rats are gross and if you find one in
your house it's just bad news. My companion and I dedicated almost 4
hours to cleaning out our closets. Doesn't sound big both our closets
are called the "abyss" because for years missionaries just throw in
their stuff that they will not bring with them. So it was packed with
junk but worse was that the rats left their droppings all over it so
nothing could be saved. So after 6 full huge trash bags, vacuuming,
and mopping with bleach/water solution, we cleaned out the abyss and
we were super grossed out. Absolutamente nunca quiero ver un ratón de
nuevo (I absolutely never want to see a rat again).
Things got way better after that day though. We tried to find someone
we met during a finding activity but we instead found someone I
contacted and after trying to give him a Book of Mormon he said no
thank you and gave us $20 for lunch, we tried to refuse but he was
relentless. So we used for it for lunch.
Also we have been some amazing lessons with an investigator with
Marco. He was found by missionaries almost a year ago and he wants to
be baptized and everyone in our ward wants him to be baptized but he
has to work Sundays. Lately he hasn't been reading the Book of Mormon
so we have been focusing on specific characters from the Book of
Mormon and he enjoyed so much the story of the Brother of Jared, he
told us that he would promise to read the assigned reading about King
Benjamin before our appointment tomorrow, how cool.
While in the streets we asked a lady if she needed help with her
shopping bags then she said no then told us that her son was a member
of our church. We then asked if she would be interested in coming and
she said yes. How cool I hope her son will help us out. Also we were
able to find someone named Jorge who has a hard time hearing but we
had an awesome first lesson with despite having to yell in Spanish
almost the entire time. We have high hopes for them.
That was my week I hope yours was great and hope this week will be
great for all of us.

PS. Marco told us that grapefruit was not bitter but sweet at a
certain time so he gave us grapefruit I almost died it was the most
bitter grapefruit I ever had.
