We had Zone Conference yesterday so our p-day is today!
Crazy title, but due to some crazy circumstances (a bat flying into our apartment and dying there) made us jump through some ridiculous medical hoops trying to receive rabies vaccinations (mandated by the area mission doctor) and not finding them in La Rioja after going to almost every hospital in the city that afternoon. Not a single place would give it to us, we even went to veterinarians.La Rioja is just casually SIX hours away from Córdoba capital and we had to travel, overnight, in a special taxi
(this is all happening last Monday night) to try and get the vaccines we need. Our Mission President tells us if we can't get them this same morning they were going to have to send us to the U. S. of A. to get them. Effectively ending my mission a month early to be able to receive the whole series.

THANK THE LORD we convinced the random man at the anti-rabies center to give us authorization and then we traveled to this other hospital where they gave us five shots, three in the arms and two in the place I will not name. haha
So we were out of our area for three days trying fo figure that out and then we get back and eat something janky, and puts me out of business ALL SATURDAY. At this point I just wanna work and work and work but its like there’s some outside force working against us.
But the tender mercies of the Lord were still shown...
FARID GOT BAPTIZED!!
STAKE CONFERENCE!!
MEETING A BUNCH OF LITTLE KIDS IN THE STREET, THEN DAYS LATER THEIR PARENTS APPROACHED US IN THE STREET ASKING TO TEACH THEM!
So I’m m grateful I didn’t have to go home. Even though we have to make the six hour trip to Cordoba to finish the treatments I just count my blessings. It really made me have to reflect on what my mission has meant to me and how bad it would have hurt to cut it off a month early knowing I still had so much to do. So here I am! 28 days and trying to leave my all there on the altar.
LOVE YOU GUYS
