Hey Guys
This week has been a pretty good one. My new comp is Elder Navarro from Chile. He knows quite a bit of English which is kind of nice but all we do is speak Spanish in the street. In lessons he speaks so fast it is hard to understand him some times. He is a great teacher and a hard worker. He was the Trainer to Elder Larson form my group (MTC) he keeps saying Elder Larson is going to change the mission. Their numbers are ridiculous. I hope to learn a lot from him on how to work. ç We finely found a girl we have been looking for for the last 2 weeks. She is 13 but looks and acts like a 17 year old. That happens with a lot of girls here for some reason. But she is so ready to be baptized it is crazy. She has come to church by herself for the past 5 weeks or so, her aunt and uncle are members. But when we committed her to be baptized she said no she promised her cousin who is on a mission he could baptizer her when he gets home, which is when I get home. Super frustrating. But we will work with her. Having a Latin comp is way different. People seem to accept us better. But I am not going to lie they are not the neatest in houses. He just throws his stuff where ever he wants which is kind of frustrating. I guess I will just learn to deal with it. We played soccer today as a district which was a lot of fun but I got fried. My neck is so red. I have never worn sun screen here, but I have also never been burt but with out my hat I just burned.
This change I am going to work so hard. We have huge goals to save the area. All of Salto is dieing. It use to be the promised land for baptisms a year or two ago but now it is really struggling. So we are going to work really hard. These last few days I have come home exhausted not from walking but from having so many lessons. Although Sunday before church we walked at least 3 miles to find people for church. We had hoped for 7 and only found 2. But things are looking up. Anyway have to go. te amo mucho. Que tangan un buen semana. Yo tengo que aprender mas español y mas sobre el evangelio y las escrituras. Que Pasen bien. 
Con Amor,
Elder Wray
P.S. Not sure how right any of that is.
