Thanks Everybody......

Why thank you so much mom for wishing me a good bday. Actually on the
bloggy blog I want to thank the few people who wished me a good day as
well because I dont really have time to write everybody back haha so
THANKS EVERYBODY! My birthday present from the Lord was an opportunity
to baptize our investigator! We have been working with her for four
months, I found her when I got to this area and now she got all
purified and stuff. It was the coolest gift I could´ve gotten here. We
did a big asado at night and partied a bit. The week went by pretty
fast. We are just trying to find more people to teach, it seems as if
that is always the story. But little by little this ward is growing.
As long as we are going forwards we arent going back! Have a great week
mom, your the best.
Love from me, like, alot :)

The longest distance I traveled this week was a half hour bus ride to a
place to go and work with some peeps haha. But I think that I am going
to miss how much we walk here. I have fallin in love with walking and
just soaking in my surroundings. The smells, well, I could do without
some of those, but for the most part its a great experience. I
remember that on road trips I would just play my gameboy or just
always be looking at what wasn´t outside. Man I have learned that the
world is just a beautiful place and I want to travel a bunch so I can
see it all. Sometimes I really feel that I am just a little pawn in this

 world and that the Lord just moves me around to different people

and situations and that He has all of the control. I am not complaining

 at all haha because He knows light years more than I do and I am

 glad that I can confide in his hand so that I can hopefully do His will here.

 I am not even close to perfect but I know that with the help of Christ it

 is possible to get there.
Love you dad! Hasta luegito papa

Even Though It Was a Little Thing.....

It rained a bunch here and
we got really wet walking in the streets all day long. You´d think
that the people would have compassion on two young dudes walking in
the storm and knocking doors. You´d think that they would at least let
you in to warm up or to have a glass of water. But if you thought that
way, you´d be thinking wrong.. The rain seemed to just give everyone a
lame reason to just turn a servent of the Lord away from trying to
save thier souls. I have a new comp now too from California.

 He got here on wednesday and my comp left to go to
San Juan. I hope your week is better than the last and that Fishman
can run the ball some more. Love you dad, the mission is awesome!!

We got to see the re-dedication of the Buenos Aires temple on sunday and the cultural
celebration on saturday. They were both really cool. I have never seen
either of those two things before. I found out that Elder D. Todd
Christopherson speaks spanish way well! He served his mission in
Argentina and still speaks way fluently. I could only spot a few
errors when he was talking, but it was on really tough stuff so he has
a whole new coolness level in my book. With getting a new comp and
all, it made this week kind of drag along. He has lots of ganas to
work and also knows alot about college and technology. It is way cool
too because I had been pretty lost on the school thing and he got here
just in time to help take out a lot of my doubts and questions. I just
love how the Lord knows us all and answers prayers in his ways, my new
comp, being here is an answer to my prayers and it
never stops amazing me of how loving our Father in Heaven really is to
us. I love it when little things like this happen, it makes my
testimony grow a ton more, even though it was a little thing. Have a
safe week and I´ll ttyl :) LOVE YOU!!

We Are All Stoked....

Sup Pops,
 These past few days have been in the70´s or 80´s I think.

Its been pretty warm and there is still another
month left of winter here haha. Aparently there is a big annual storm
that rolls through here on August 30. It hasnt come yet but they say
its on its way. They call it the Santa Rosa haha. Your trip to Kodiak
sounds like it was a great experience of pain for you haha. I think I
am going through one of those experiences right now. Its all good
because with how fast time is going by it´ll get here uber fast. I
didn’t ever think that I would hear (or read) you say that church was
awesome before I started my mission. You seem to say that every week
now. I am way proud of you for getting stronger in the gospel and not
falling away like I see here so much in families that have
missionaries leave. Thanks for trying and just pushing along.
Love ya dad. Hasta la vista, baby

Hey momma,                  
    My week was good. This next sunday we are going to watch the
re-dedication of the Buenos Aires temple and we are all stoked! There
are three sessions but we are only allowed to watch one of them.. And
there is a cultural celebration on saturday that we are allowed to
watch as well. Me and my comp are tagging along at a very slow walking
speed haha.  I got the other shoe that was bent in half and Im going to
wear them today to see how they are. There is some colateral damage to the
structure of the shoesbecause of the extreme heat they must´ve endured on the
trip here but I think I can fix them. Thanks for everything mom I love you a ton
load!
