What up guys! This past week was pretty awesome. Well the hurricane was kinda crazy. It destroyed the beach town that is 40 minutes from soto, called La Pesca. But after it hit there it went from a hurricane to a tropical storm. So in the morning on monday at like 6 it hit soto and it was so windy and raining a ton for about 3 hours then it stopped.
The river that is there grew a ton from all the water. But later that day at 4 i got a call from the asitants that i was changing areas and had to leave on the bus at 5 30. So i had to pack ALL my stuff in like 30 minutes...do not know how i did it! haha
then Like 20 minutes before the bus left it started raining a ton..a ton!! And we left the town onto Victoria. But guess what? Soto La Marina flooded after we left! The water was up to the knee in some parts and the river raised even more that it destroyed a lot of houses, and a lot of members are now sleeping in the church like 22 people.
(Hermano Benito, here on the left is probably living in the church right now in Soto de Marina; as his home is probably destroyed from the hurricane.)
They closed off the highways to the town right after we left! What a miracle. BUt im going to miss that area.
I had a lot of fun and it was awesome. SO we worked in Victoria for a day, yesterday, and now i finally arrived in my new area! Its called Huejutla in the state of Hidaglo. Its about the most south of the mision. haha from the most north to the most south! Pretty cool. It looks pretty cool so far.
Its in a mountain area and its all green and houses on the hills. Ill send pictures next week because i dont have my cord to put them on here! My new comp is Elder Garcia. He is cool and i got raised to be the Senor Companion! Oh yeah. Im excited to be working in this new area.
Oh when we got to victoria monday night it was crazy to see all the water in the streets! It was honestly a full on raging river haha! There were cars stuck and the water was almost past the tires on the cars there. Look for videos on youtube of When it rains in victoria tampualipas, or something like that. One of the craziest things i have seen!
