Don't Give The Church Wifi Password To The Gipsy!

This week in a rundown:
 
- chronic bronchitis, yeah. thats fun. IM THRIVING THOUGH!
- gispy scanned a QR code on my phone for the church wifi??? But they are our neighbors(to the church) and are just gonna use it allllll the time, I was just trying to be christlike people
- exhanges in Esquel! We had a few days of traveling(it was only 3 hours to get there) and made it to esquel!! I spent a few hours with hna molina(who is from the mission my brother served in!) and a whole day with hermana Affleck, she is so amazing.
- got BURNT so bad. The sun is strong here folks.
- took a lil side trip to TREVELIN!!!! yes dad, you heard that right. Its the southern most area in my mission and there are only elders and a senior couple there and we ate dinner with the senior couple to finish our exchanges
- had a WARD CHRISTMAS PARTY! it was so swag, we sang in a choir, the youth acted out the nativity scene, and then we ate roasted chicken, so. good. I'm making you guys a real asado when I get back, youre welcome. And THREE of our friends came to this activity!! The ward was so welcoming
 

Spiritual thought!-

 
"61 And another also said, Lord, I will follow thee; but let me first go bid them farewell, which are at home at my house.
62 And Jesus said unto him, No man, having put his hand to the plough, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God."

 
Just think about this for a lil bit. When you got baptized you promised to remember Him always. Every sunday we promise to take his name upon us. Dont look back, look forward in faith. He helped me walk on water this week, and he can help you too
 

Love you all more that I can express with words!! A lil bit less than 1 year left to be the lords hands and change eternities

Church X 4 Emojis

Milagros yall!! A few things from this week: - A family we are teaching came to church yesterday - One of our friends that we stopped teaching 2 months ago went to church/the baptism of her GRANDDAUGHTER yesterday and told the missionaries there that she wants us to teach her and pass by again!! - my heels are absolutely destroyed from walking a ton but I couldnt be happier to be in pain for the salvation of other people - I gave a talk and people could understand me haha!! My comp said my argentinian accent was so heavy at some points in my talk that she couldnt understand my spanish - a kid asked if I was chinese.   My favorite miracle this week:   while we were walking to a baptism for another ward, a guy stopped on his motorcycle and said "tengo una consulta", I was prepared to help him with dirrections, while my companion was preparing to run haha. He took off his helmet and my companions contenence changed completely. She said "I know you!! Albino!!". This man...

I'm Dreaming Of A White Christmas

Image
It rained, it poured, it rained some more. And then it snowed. Yup. Its summer for yall but it is very much winter for me and the rest of la gente here in Argentina. This week was cold, and as I am writing this email I am looking out of our window(we live in the 8th floor of an apartment building) all I can see is fog. The poor weather made it harder to work but we pushed through.   Had my first (multi)zone conference this week in Roca and it was great to get to know other missionaries! For those of you new to mission lingo- each companionship of missionaries has an area that they cover. Every couple "areas" is a "district", and every couple "districts" is a "zone"! Zone conference is when we all gather at one church building and spend the morning(or day in our case) together!  We had exchanges! This is when missionaries who are leaders over a zone come to a different area and we switch companions for the day. Hermana Orme and I stayed in our are...

New Missionary Pt 2

Image
Yup, the title is correct. I got asked WAY to many times if I was a new missionary in my area that i've already been in for 6 weeks:( confirmed my thoughts of being pretty much invisible for the first transfer here in Argentina. So thats been real nice the past couple days. Oh and I got called fat in the street. Lets just say people are VERY open here and will not hold anything back.    Other than that, I have a new companion and she said that I have perfect spanish! At this moment I would like to thank my mother for speaking to me in spanish at home sometimes, because of that, I didnt completely loose the spanish I learned in high school many many years ago.   We had more miracles this week and one of our friends we have been teaching for a few weeks finally came to church! WOOHOOOO!!! I cried when he walked in, and then a less active member that we've been working with walked in. I was speachless, crying in gratitude, and saying prayers of thanks. God is real, he hears ...
