Well since I last wrote, I have gone to Managua 2 times. And the first time was last Tuesday. We had reserved seats for the 3am bus. But it broke down before leaving Jalapa. So we had to leave on the 4am bus instead. We waited for the 3am bus on the side of the road, but when it didn't pass, we had to go to the bus station to wait for the bus. And one lady had a 100lb bag of bananas (cuz its Nicaragua) and so we helped her carry them to the bus station (like 100 yards away)
When we finally got on the 4am bus, all the seats were taken. So we had to stand for 5 and a half hours to Managua. But we made it. We went to a meeting for my companion, because he is new in the mission. While eating lunch there, the mission nurse came over and asked about my comp's ingrown toenail. When they went to look at it, it was infected, so we went to the hospital so they could clean it. And today we went back to the hospital so they could take care of the toenail but cutting it out. So Elder Ruiz will be on crutches all this week.
Yesterday at church we had 27 people and 2 investigators!! So we are still making progress toward being a branch!
Till next week,
