Hola todos,

yes I am here and alive haha. Sorry I didnt write a group email last week I was busy talking to my family,.! we got to skype too for mothers day! I love my mom very, very much. She is the reason I am who I am, and thanks to her I am here today on my mission! (along with my dad)
Some sad news, is that Elder holland got cancelled :( hes going to give a conference for the members but not for the missionaries now.

so recap maybe of the last 2 weeks, well a lot of our investigadores have had strange health problems happen ( the opposition, thanks to the adversary) soo like 5 of them we havent been able to see for 2 weeks haha, and one of them dropped us. (the elders say that we bring bad luck hahah)
Im worried about one of them because he is 86 yrs old, yeah, 86! and has to have a surgery  for his heart and its a 40% chance that he doesnt come out alive. We told him that maybe he shouldnt go then!..idk when he will be baptised then because he cant get out of bed sometimes..(maybe in heaven he will get the chance to acept his baptism) 

But on the bright side, we have had some great investigadores, one of them stopped us in the street to talk to us after we didnt see him for 2 weeks! and is super excited about the gospel! another asked us on saturday, the first day we met him, and asked if he could be baptised in the Mormon church!!!!!!??? We were like UH YES! haha hes super prepared!! super humble!! also, the couple that is going to get married is probs gonna be married in 3 weeks now! yay!

So my comp had her birthday! Yesterday! also her cumplemes on friday! which is birthday month in the mission haha. she has been out now a full 18 months!!! It was great yesterday, we had asado, and a ton of cake! Also, I tried some weird kidney from pigs I think, (hence the subject) and that did NOT fall well with me..it was hard to eat but you gotta respect the people here!" also, I tried some blood sausage....and I felt gross after..because it was made of the pigs head and blood..do not eat that if you come here haha.

anyway I hope everyone has a great week, I love you all, and I love my Savior Jesus Christ, who has changed my life forever!

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

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
