Pushup Count: 160
Hola a todos! Something pretty big happened this week! If you speak Spanish, the subject line might give it away, but if not you'll have to wait till the end 
. Some highlights:
. Some highlights:- Last pday we carved pumpkins
- We found a giant lizard in the church
- I politely choked down some salad a member gave us, and then almost blew it when he asked if I wanted more 
- Halloween was kinda lame cause we're missionaries, but we played chess and darts and failed to make caramel apples
- "I like the soft crunchy stuff"
- We found an mx track out in the middle of nowhere
- Waxed our noses again
- We had a sick lesson with our friend Cyrius, and the member we invited prayed in sebwano (no idea how you spell that)
- I had exchanges with our DL and ate 7 pieces of pizza
- We talked to the same group of drunk people twice in the same hour
- "Ah, the weed is strong with this one"
- We got to set up a table at the farmers market
- Talked to some Jehovah's Witnesses who used to be members of our church
- We finally went to the Borax mine in our area —it's one of only two in the entire world and it's HUGE
- Daylight savings absolutely killed us — there's not a single streetlight in North Edwards
Yesterday we had a lesson with our friend Rosalinda, who had previously told us that she was waiting for God to tell her when to be baptized. We prepared a fire lesson on answers to prayers to help her make the decision, but before we even started the lesson, she told us she was ready and we put her on date right then! I didn't even realize what was happening because it was all in Spanish, but all the sudden my comp was talking about dates and I realized what she had said. It was so cool, and we're so excited for her!
Spiritual Thought
Just keep praying 
. We said a lot of prayers for Rosa this week and God answered them. He's not always gonna answer us in the way we want or when we want, but He will. This has still been a hard week, even with our prayers, but I know difficult things are for our good. God's never going to leave you, because he loves you!
