Although we slept soundly, Erik was jolted awake by the sound of me flailing around the bedroom like a crazy person because i had seen a spider (not superhuman size but big enough) and I wasn't gonna relax until i had killed it. After moving everything on the floor twice, i finally got it, and we could all relax again.
I don't think anyone enjoyed the rain/mud as much as him |
We got home before Ryan & Veronica so we decided to make lunch for a change – lasagna of course! – very Ecuadorian. I think it turned out pretty good with homemade sauce, just missing some really good parmesan.

The young people here are exceptional! Their ability in the ministry (reading scriptures, asking questions), preparation & participation in the meetings is exemplary. But Maite is extra special – she walks the 4 or 5 blocks to all the meetings by herself (her mom doesn’t study, only her grandma and other aunts/uncles but she doesn’t live with them) with her book bag all packed with her meeting books. She pays rapt attention to the meeting, taking notes of the Bible texts read. She knows her way around her Bible & has her hand up to comment a lot. She already studied the Great Teacher book (she knows her Bible Stories book too!) and is now in chapter 1 of the Bible Teach book….She’s 9 years old. (She sat with us tonight-precious!)
