Osvaldo Cruz- Week Eleven

Hello World,

This past week, the weather played a large part of my week. Saturday night, we had a super big rain storm that caused a lot of flooding in our area. It was pretty extreme. My neighbors, only a few blocks away, lost everything they own in the flood. We gratefully, live on the third floor of a apartment building and suffered no damage. We used a good part of Sunday coordiniting with the members of the ward to help the people in the community and then Elder J and I went out to help some of the people we are teaching. It was a very sad and humbling scene. Everyone in the street cleaning and throwing out their ruined furniture. Many people also simple sat in the street as the waited for the sun to dry things out. It was very grateful that we suffered no damage and we worked hard to help the people and give meaningful service. 

Thank you to everyone back home for your support. I am praying for you all.

Photos include one night when I made sandwhichs and felt proud to take a photo.
