Capitulo 80 - On Saturday we got hit by a hurricane or something

 It rained literally the entire week. I don't think I've ever seen so much rain in my life haha. The rain was pretty normal until Saturday. On Saturday we got hit by a hurricane or something like that (note to mom: I'm fine, I doubt it was a hurricane) the point is the we were teaching a lesson to a family of recent converts and the rain just started pouring and pouring down. Before we realized it, we looked outside and the dirt road turned into a river of rushing water. the family told us to wait for the rain to calm down. we waited for 30 minutes until we realized that we had a appointment right then. We decided to leave. The moment I step in the water got passed my ankles. We started walking across the street and it got up to our waists. It was awesome! At least that's what I thought in the moment.

  As we were walking, people were trying to get around, and they couldn't. People would try crossing the dirt roads like we did and they got sucked down the road because the water was really fast. We had to help a few people out of the water. We realized that the appointment we had wasn't home, and so we started moving towards our back up plan. The rain didn't stop, and we were soaking wet. The water got higher and higher and started going into houses, and people were going crazy taking things out of their houses before the water destroyed everything, so we started helping people. Some people's walls fell down and for a lot of unfortunate people, their houses were taken away. I'm pretty sure that just happened in our area, because I asked other people how they were and they said the rain wasn't bad for them.

  The next day we had Stake conference. Only one family from our area went to the stake conference because everyone else stayed back reparing their houses and helping other people. President Chase, the President Duarte(temple president), and Elder Perez of the 70 came to the Conference. It was a good conference, and most of the day after the conference, we spent helping people with their houses. We'll see how things go this week.
