Hola todos,

My compañera is going home this week! AH! its crazy, today we had to buy another duffle bag for her, and have to get her haircut, (mi too) and get rid of some of her clothes haha. Shes doing great though and super duper diligente!!!

For some reason lately we have just been struggling with the people we are teaching, the brother that is going to get married is going to have to wait 3 more weeks. But its going to come! The other investigador is going to get baptised the 15 of June we are hoping, but has to attend church but hes afraid to leave his sick mom home! ah..bueno. praying for him to have more faith. 

We had a miracle though yesterday, we found 2 new investigadores that are golden! One of them, a girl came without inviting! Her friend from another area told her to go to the mormon church, and she came! Shes perfect! And that night, a recent convert told us he has a friend to introduce us to! He is golden too, super interested in finding the true church and about what happens after life here! we are so grateful for these blessings. 

We had a zone conference this week! It was super great! But sad still that Elder holland cant come now :( I learned so much in the conference, about how to teach super clear, short, and focusing in the committments. also something that we do as a mission is meditate and pray about our investigadores for 30 minutes every morning, that has helped a lot the past couple months. Sometimes when I get stressed or just sad about the people we are teaching, when they dont progress, I think about what Heavenly Father thinks too. That he has tanto paciencia, and is filled with love and understanding. I sometimes just miss the temple and really wish I could go there to feel closer to the Lord! How lucky those of you are who are able to go to the temple.

This week was day of the Argentine independencia! 25 de Mayo! So we saw 1,000 flags everywhere haha it was awesome! I bought a flag myself :) also, the dollar is 24 pesos now here! its crazy haha, I feel bad for the people here..the economy is just terrible. but I love it here still and love teaching peoeple the restored gospel of Jesus Christ! what a blessing to be able to do this.

Pics will come

I also had to go to the doctor again for my knees so they would give me another medicine. We also had to go to the dinner for the newbies missionaries that came this week, and the 1st training meeting! it was so funny because the asistentes invited us on short notice for the dinner and the training meeting, and we were like..uh but we already have been in training for a month now! hah but we went anyways. I felt like a newbie being with all them again haha! crazy that next month i will have been here in argentina for a year! A lot of people have rejected us this week as we talked to them, and i dont think i felt physically more exhausted

last one....

hello everyone! well, i just have a couple last things to share here. This is going to be my last week of my mision. it is amazing to me. I have learned so much here more than ever before in my whole life. I think i am in debt to my father in heaven for all he has done for me! there are no words to describe it in any language. We have found 6 new people to teach! I am loving it. one if them is Estefania she is so special and i feel so bad for her. she doesnt have work (like 80% of the people here), and is a single mom of 3. Very humble. I felt the spirit so strong iwth her. Nancy is doing really well witrh the ward too here , it is amazing to see the  chagne in people. I will miss it very much. The ward here has taught me so many things that will change my life forever. It is a ward where there is unity and faith and actual conversion in the Lord Jesus Christ. I dont have time to send pictures, but in just a week or so you will all see more anyways after. Sorry haha. Today has been pac
