I can see Las Mercedes, my second area from my window. I can see the house of Christopher but it's not in our zone so I can't go visit him. I got transferred kids! I'm in Mision Comayaguela, Zona Comayaguela, Area Comayaguela! This is my 3rd area in this same Zone but I'm stoked! Pradera and Tiloarque are both in this Zone. My new comp is Elder Young, from Riverton. He has 8 months in the mission. He's a super chill dude and weirdly reminds me of... ME! I also got Elder Briggs in my zone and this other bro from St. George! I'm happy and I'm pretty sure I'm gonna finish my mission like this. A lot happened this week let me tell you... On Wednesday we traveled back to my old area to give a capacitation in the church by the temple. It was a capacitation for the missionaries that are going to train new ones. We also had to do a an example of a companionship study. It was funny because I found my old district in the chapel having their district meeting. I got to eat Sopa de Garrobo! Thats iguana soup for those who don't know. Guuuulp... It was good!! We actually bought the soup because we really were interested in what it tasted like. If I could describe the meat.... it was like chicken but firmer and rubbery. I liked it though and I was hopping around like and iguana afterwards. I'm scared to tell you this but... we were headed to the house of a referral named Browli we had received from a recent convert. As we headed to knock the door there was a ripped tattooed man with his shirt off filling his outdoor pool he had set up in the street. He said "Hey! Don't go in there cause you'll just come out with the devil inside of you! I'm tellin you a Devil! I was weirded out but I forgot about it and we walked up the door. It was open and the recent convert came over to us. She's old about 60 something and she said Come on in! We went in and another lady came over but I've just gotta say I had a creepy feeling in there and these ladies look like straight up witches dude! The nose, the laugh, the creepy grin, everything! Anyway they were whispering and telling us that Browli was on the second floor in his room. The lady whispered the devil is up there. She said he looks like he's dead cause his chin hangs down. We heard some weird yelling sounds coming from upstairs. We kind of chuckled. Then the lady whispered Are you scared with a creepy smile? My comp and I BUUURSTED out laughing and we couldn't stop because we didn't realize what we had gotten ourselves into and plus you guys know that's my weakness. They started laughing with us and about 2 minutes later I finally controlled myself. We were ready to go up. One of the ladies walked slowly up the stairs and took the lock of the door and ran back down and said okay go ahead with creepy grin. I was sketched and asked her to go first. She said no way. I'm not going up there. There's a devil! You guys go! We went up the stairs and saw the door of Browlis's room opened. We walked sloooowly and we saw him! He was sitting on his bed with his back facing us. He was twitching and moving weirdly. I was sketched!! My comp asked how are you? He yelled really loud "I'm good, I'm okay, I'm veeeery goood!" I started laughing. We introduced ourselves and asked if we could talk to him. He turned around and his eyes were crrreeeeepy as if he was on some kind of drugs. He walked out of his room and we went on his balcony and sat down in some chairs. We tried sharing a message but he was trippin out saying how he didn't like our church. Some loud Jesus music turned on in the background and Browli started laughing creepily, so once again my comp and I started laughing so hard! I thought we were gonna be possessed or something if we didn't get out of there so we bailed. Not going back again. Sorry for such a long story. It's just that nothing crazy like that has happened in a while. We have great investigators here in the area. I'm excited to keep working with Elder Young. We already had many powerful spiritual lessons this week and I hope to baptize lots with him. Love you guys have a great week! Iguana Soup! Mexican tacos from last Monday. They were so good!!
