Hola!
I hope everyone´s Semana Santa was good. Semana Santa is the week before Easter and it is extremely huge here. All the students have the week off school, and the week after as well. A unique thing here is that the jews dress up in wild costumes with masks and dance around the streets. On Wednesday night, they all gathered together to dance laps around the Catholic Church. Ton´s of people were there to watch. It´s an interesting tradition that the jews do.
Because of Semana Santa, a lot of people were busy and out of town, so as a zone, we didn´t have much success this week in teaching. We have 2 "escogidos" investigators, but other than that, we only teach about 5 or 6 people occasionally. We work hard every day, and we´ll see success soon.
General Conference was this weekend, and obviously all in Spanish. I cheated though and put English Subtitles up during a few sessions. As a missionary, General Conference was better than ever. The members here only watch the one session on Sunday Morning at the church, but me and my companion sat by ourselves in the church watching the other sessions.
I had another draft, but it accidently got deleted. I guess this will have to do for this week. Happy Late Easter everyone. Remember the Atonement.
Church in Ahome
