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!

¡Bienvenido!

¡Hola mis amigos y familia! This is of course my first blog post. I am a missionary that has been called to the Mendoza Argentina Mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. Also known as, the Mormon church. I report to the Provo Utah missionary training center(MTC) on the 27th of September. Just a week away! Wahoo! Crazy how soon it is. Well why am I  going on a mission? Some may ask, why are you going on a mission for a church that makes you follow such strict rules? You can't see your family or friends at all for 18 months?! You won't have your cell phone? You can't return home even for big events? You can't do whatever you want on the trip? Why is it so long? Why are you going then? And, et cetera. But I am here to tell you the answer. I'm so excited to be able to serve a mission for my church. I love the gospel of Jesus Christ. It is the reason I am the way I am today. It has shaped my life and who I am. I am so happy that I have a relat...

Last week of the MTC, Agentina is where I'll be!

Sorry I sent that other one on accident too early!! haha! So Hola again, This is my last week here like I said haha, so I'll be in Argentina in 2 days! It is so crazy and surreal to think that and imagine actually being there, for a year and a half! And it will be warm there!! SO weird haha, I'll have to get used to the southern hemisphere! So my next P-day also won't be next Saturday again most likely, it will change so I'll have to tell you all about how it goes later. This week one of the best parts was Halloween!!! It was the best one yet, because we dressed up (me and my companion) as M&M's! it was so cute! We are Martines and Mallet, so that's why haha. There are going to be pictures attached from it. Me and Mallett also gave everyone cute Halloween gifts/notes with jokes and pictures on it, glow sitcks and candy!! It was so cute they all loved it jaja! It was also a really good day because we all bore our testimonies in Español as well, which was real...
