hola todos

This week, after much 'tribulation and affliciones,' we were blessed a lot! I know that Heavenly Father listens to us and wants to make us grow in our faith through trials. We found a bunch of new people to teach who are actually really humble! but, the girl that was going to be baptised this saturday, is going to wait for this saturday I think. She said she didnt feel completly ready, so we are preparing her baptism this saturday. I have never prayed so hard in my life until now as we are praying for her!

The 'athiest' we are teaching, told us he prayed to know what path to take, but he didnt pray still ask if the Book of Mormon is true or if the church is true! ah haha patience..but we are going to help him. Also me and Hermana Martinez are working with a ton of Menos activos, inactive members, and the stake gave us a huge job to look for all of them that are being moved to another ward, yesterday they told us at church! so that is great more work for us yay!

We are also planing an activity coming up for the 9 de Julio, which is like the 4th of July here! and the members are really excited! they are beginning to trust us more I think. (the members here are like of 'cold,' because they all have a lot of money kinda) But, I think it is possible to change the area if you gain the trust and friendship of the members! that has been a big lesson for me here in this transfer. but, sometimes it is sad because some investigadores that are really humble, have said they didnt feel welcomes in the ward because the members all have more money than the investigadores. but we are trying to work on helping the people feel more comfortable.

Yesterday we taught a new investigador, and he wants to be baptised si o si! haha (like he wants it more than anythin) he is an alcoholic, and smokes a lot, and is separated, but said 'I have no problem being baptised, im going to church next sunday too'! haha he is a CAPO, great, and named Marcos MARTINEZ, haha the best name in the world!

I hope everyone has a great week, and serves someone who needs help this week. Yesterday we were able to help a homeless couple and gave them food and clothes we had extra in our apartment, and the joy I felt was the best thing I have ever felt..so I encourage everyone to do an act of service this week!

ps. pray for the economy here hahaha, because Argentina is in kinda like a great depression, everything is super inflated, the money is worth almost nothing (the dollar is 28 pesos$ now!!)

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
