So this week, I finally got to meet the ward because last week was stake conference. There weren't too many to meet but the ones we have are really cool.
My comp got the flu this week so we weren't able to work very much between his vomiting and what not. He also had an ulcer (on his lip) that got infected and started to cause him severe pain so we had to go to the urgent care last night. He's still hurting, but he's better and has the meds he needs.
My Creole is getting surprisingly better. I'm now teaching in full "ping-pong" with my comp. What's actually hard is not speaking, but really just understanding, since the grammar's quite simple and the vocabulary's all similar.
We're not even making any efforts to find Haitians anymore but we just talk to people that live with our investigators and end up getting more!
Our ward's proving to be very good to them and supportive, so we don't have to worry too much.
John got confirmed this Sunday and is excited to get the Aaronic Priesthood and help with the Sacrament. He's super cool.
Today we watched Finding Dory and ate some Sloppy Joes as a district.
Anyway, that was my week, have a good one everybody!

This is John our Haitian convert. He's a gem. Also, my shirt in this photo is 100% wet 'cause we forgot to get an extra shirt for John so we traded right before and then right after the baptism. So the shirt I'm wearing is the one he got baptized in.
