Rain, Thunder and Lighting! Sick and Singing too.

¡Hola a todos!

This past week has been crazy. On Monday we had the craziest thunder storm! It was dumping rain and the streets got flooded so bad it was looking like a river! It was fun to watch the streets run wild and the sky's flash here and there with thunder and lighting! When we went to bed Elder Navarro opened the window and let's just say that's when it started! 
On Tuesday Elder Navarro started to get a sore throat because he said it was the cold air from Monday night and the next day it got worse and his body starting feeling weak and he had headaches. Thursday was the worst because we stayed in the apartment all day making calls and teaching lessons through the phone. It was interesting. Friday and Saturday were a little bit more normal but still tough. On Sunday, I started to feel weak in the body as well and at the time I am writing this I have a headache and the other Elders in our apartment said their feeling sick as well. Also people in Córdoba having been telling us that they are sick with a sore throat and all, so I guess something is going around. 
Lately, everywhere missionaries have been having to drop people or a baptismal date falls through and it's the same here. I don't know why, but things that happen to us are happening everywhere! It's been a crazy few weeks for sure! One of the good things that I can take away from this week is that my Spanish is definitely improving and we had 5 people show up to church yesterday which is a huge win! We also have lots of lessons set up with members for this week so I'll let you know how things go! 
On Friday we had zone conference which went really well! Everything that was talked about coincided with everything that has been happening lately which is good! I definitely learned a lot! At the end of zone conference, I sang in a quartet with Elder Barnes, Hermana Sorensen and Hermana Skousen! We sang Peace in Christ and man it was nice to sing with other singers again! I kind of forgot how much I love singing with others!  😅 
Anyway that's all for this week folks! I hope everyone is doing well back home! 
Love Elder Burbank 
The old companions back together!

On Thursday when we stayed in the apartment, I made some pretty bomb Pesto pasta for lunch! 👌
