Week 97!

hey hey hey,
it's been pretty good this week! we haven't done too much but it's been fun!  LOTS of rain and lots of humidity, humidity so bad that the floor is covered in water and it doesn't help trying to clean up the water because it just comes right back literally 2 minutes later.  so we're trying to get through the humidity.  hahaha but i went this week to Dolores to do divisions and i was with Elder Elliot.  it was super funny, literally the city is FULL of crazy ladies that LOVE the missionaries.  hahaha so literally during the whole day there were like millions of ladies that kept whisteling at us and saying crap like ¨oh there's a new missionary in town¨ and crap like that!!!  haha but luckily i left there without any problems or anything. hahaha hahaha we bought a pizza together and it was super fun!  Elder Elliot has 4 changes in Dolores and he's ready to leave there hahaha it happens to all missionaries after staying in an area for 4 changes.  but we also have been working in our area with a kid named Brahian ¨bryan¨ hahaha whose tìo is a member of the church that recently recieved the melquisedek preisthood.  he's been helping us a lot and eventhough he's a kid he already has a super strong testimony.  he's recieved a lot of little answers and he's realized something that we all should learn, that we don't need a huge answer to follow god.  just through little things we recieve answers.  so he's got a baptismal date for the 14 of this month.  and he's super excited, now we're trying to work more on his mom who likes to talk to us but she also isn't married and she's living with a guy.... so we're trying to work with her on that. but overall everything is going great!!!  this next week is going to be super fast because we have to travel a CRAP TON!!! to montevideo for a meeting, mercedes for divisions, and dolores for a baptismal interview.  so this week there's lots to do but it'll be fun!  we're getting along good and we're working super hard together trying to help raise this branch up.  but that is pretty much all that's happened this week.  i'll try to write more in this next week.  but i love you all,
THANKS,
LOVE,
Elder Atkinson
