It's been a crazy week. My companion is a physical wreck (the results of many avoidable sports injuries) and on Wednesday he destroyed his ankle stepping off a sidewalk. So we spent a lot of this week in our house on doctor's orders. Now he's somewhat better, but still has an ankle that looks like an orange. A Mexican orange, because the oranges in Mexico are green, but an orange all the same. We had lots of investigators at church this Sunday (most of them were old people visiting their children who live here, but they're still investigators), so we're feeling pretty happy about everything, but it is frustrating to be stuck inside. Halloween was a failure. We actually got one group of trick-or-treaters, but we didn't have candy for them. The woman escorting the kids tried to give us jobs as English teachers at the high school where she works, but we resisted. It was hard because she asked us in English. There were more trick-or-treaters out on the first and second of November than on Halloween, which I thought was interesting. The first of November was the Day of the Dead, so our mission president told us to go to the cemetaries to contact people. It actually didn't work out that way because nobody wanted us, but it was pretty cool to see the people and everything. Yes, we had another week.

Love,
