Cause you're in New York

I went to San Salvador this week for Migration. It was quite different than Nahuizalco. It actually has big buildings. Even Santa Ana have more than a four story building. It's not quite like New York though. 
This week was an interesting week. We are working really hard to try to accomplish our goals. I don't know what it is but we have been struggling in our area. I am worried about the people we have that are "supposed" to get baptized. They have been acting a little weird. I am feeling the pressure of my position in trying to reach this goal. I know that I have to be an example for them.  You can pray for J. S., S. C., Freddy, Adriana, Jessica, Mariana, and Elizabeth.
 On Saturday I went on interchanges with Elder Slack. He's from West Jordan. We were out in a cantón called Pushtan. We could see clouds coming in. It was starting to get dark and it's a 25 minute walk back to Nahuizalco. We started walking and it started raining with everything it had. It was not only rain but lighting as well. There was a ton of lighting and a couple struck real close to us. We were soaking wet and on a dark muddy road running back to Nahui screaming like little girls. I had never heard before the lightning. Everyone hears thunder but I heard the lightning whiz across the sky. It was awesome! I thought, "What is my family doing on this wonderful saturday night?" I thought well they are probably talking to the neighbors, playing basketball, and just having a good time. Meanwhile I am trudging up a dark slippery hill in the jungle in El Salvador with rain pouring down on me and lightning about strinking me. I love the mission!! 
This morning we went and saw some waterfalls here in Juayúa. They are really cool. That was the first planned zone activity that I have ever been to.
Anways I don't have much more time.
Have a great week!
