Halfway!!!

Hello everyone!

Yes, me and Hna Oswald hit our HALFWAY MARK today!!!  Time has flown by and we can't believe that we'll be home in December.  We´ll be celebrating today by going to Quito in a few minutes here and getting my emergency ROOT CANAL... the doctors had to move it to tonight before the entire country shuts down. 

That being said, this week has been CRAZY. Any missionary (at least in my mission´s area) who has 4 months or less until their release date is being sent home immediately and honorably released, which is so sad!  My heart was breaking for all the missionaries who had to leave earlier than they expected.

On top of that, for the next 2 weeks we can´t leave the house because of coronavirus spreading... and Hna O & I have already been stuck in the house all week because she´s been so sick - shoutout to her parasite! :´)  

It´s crazy how fast everything seems to be going downhill here.  But, I am so thankful for living prophets and for the guidance they give us.  Prophets have been preparing us for crazy situations like these for years, and we will be blessed for following their counsel!

Talk to you guys in a couple weeks,
Hna Harris

- Showing Hna O the sector... she thought the river was the view but I was the view ;)
- The indigenous people here wear their babies on their backs so I was just trying to fit in by putting my gnome on my back
- We really be out here doing the Lord´s work. Just kidding I would never leave the house with a FOOT TANLINE that bad
- Us and our emergency food for the 15 days we´ll be in the house!

A dog bit me and I´m still upset about it

Good afternoon to everyone except to the dog that bit me :) Ok I´m being dramatic but YES I got bitten (bit? bitten? I´m forgetting english?) by a dog for the first time in my mission.  I was just walking along in the village, minding my own business, the dog was walking by us minding his own business, and then he just comes behind me and bites me in the leg and tries to attack us?!  The audacity.  Don´t fret though, I´m rabies free (so far) but I do have a pretty sweet bruise from it. #blessed Other than that, not much new stuff happened this week.  We got to stop by at Lesli and David´s (our miracle baptism) wedding reception for a minute, found someone to teach, and ate some weird animal parts like usual!  It´s been a good week here in Cotama (other than the dog bite...yes still being dramatic), and I get to go back to the city to QUITO for the day tomorrow for a dentist appointment!!!  Stay tuned to see if the toothac...

Wheels up!!

And just like that...24 hours after we talked to Hermana Harris, we received notification on 3/24 that they had secured flights for them and they would be on the plane today, Thursday, March 26th.  Miracles indeed happen, and a group of missionaries from the Ecuador Quito/Quito North missions are airborne and expected to arrive in the US in just a few short hours.  Our daughter’s Ecuador days are officially ended and it’s bittersweet!  We are excited to see her soon!!!

Bug Free!

Hello everyone! First of all, I would like to thank all 59 of you who emailed me with concerns about my ear bug.  I was suprised how many of you actually read my emails haha!  As an update, the bug didn´t lay eggs and no other insects have crawled out since then.  God is real haha.   Last pday my comp and I went to Centro Historico in Quito where all the touristy places are.  It was so weird walking around and hearing people speak in English haha.  We took a ton of photos, but unfortunately when I tried to upload them today, the computer deleted everything on my card, so now I have no photos :´)  Shoutout to Ecuador´s technology.  Luckily, my comp had a few on her camera but sadly none of the ones with us in it!  Keep reading your scriptures and praying! Con amor,  Hna Harris
