Sorry I didn´t send anything out last week, I hardly wrote anything anyway. The only news is that I´ve been here in Cuenca for about five weeks now, but there are cambios today so we´ll see what happens.
Cuenca is suuuuuuuuper cold, especially compared to the coast. I´m kind of dying, especially right now, because I´m sitting right next to the door. It´s sort of like a mini European town in some parts here, it´s kind of cool. There´s even a super fancy mall that we got permission to go to today since we brought more than 5 people to church yesterday haha. It was so fancy, I thought I was in the US. There was a KFC, McDonald´s, California Kitchen Co., and other things that were generally really cool. I even bought a Butterfinger. ...and a box of Alfajores that I found. They´re a different brand than the kind in Uruguay, so we´ll see if they´re any good or not.

This last week we didn´t have any baptisms, but hopefully everything will go well for our baptism for this week. His name is Jorge and he´s 14, super tall, and super serious, but we´re starting to get him to smile more. He´d never admit it, but we´re totally his friends. The week before last, his little sister got baptized, so we´re hoping this will help get him excited.

| ...so I bought a beanie...and I love it so much |
Nothing else really is new, except that I bought a beanie last week (I love it I wear it all the time when we´re in the house) and that I´ve probably gained about 15 lbs since I left my house. Greeeeaaaaat. Meh it´s okay, I was a little underweight before the mish.
Hope everyone´s doing great and I hope to hear from you next week!
Love,
Hermana Iverson
