Week 20

So this week was kinda empty, a lot of appt's fell thru. We found some more people to teach, and that's always cool. It has been pretty wet and rainy here, I think it has rained almost every day for the past week and a half, kinda weird. I found out that a guy in my ward doesn't have a tribe in his patriarchal blessing, he is a sealer in the temple and sings really good, and doesn't have a tribe. I'm not really sure how that works. I'll try to send some photos next week.

Week 19

This week was pretty bad and good at the same time. Almost every one of our fixed appts.
fell thru, but we found a lot of new people. We have been teaching this lady who is terminally
ill with cancer, and she accepted a bautismal date, but she has to get married to the father
of her children or seperate, and this always takes forever. We also got a date for an older
lady who's husband just died, but she told us it is just a goal, and she doesn't think she
will be ready on that day, so we'll see what happens!

Week 18

Okay, so this week some people told me that I need to send more details about these
people who got baptized. The family Chancan is Jaime, the father, 44, Christina, the
Mother, 42, Jhack, the oldest son, with 12, Franck, the second son, with 11, Mateo,
the youngest son, with 7, and Candela the daughter, with 6. They are awesome  
investigators. They moved to Argentina from Peru 6 years ago, they are very peruano,
 very short, and goditos. They live in Campo Tongui, which is almost a nice place,
because their house burned down with all of their stuff when they went to visit their
parents in peru. elder Rosti baptized the parents, and I baptized the kids. I don't know
how they chose, two days before the baptism I asked elder rosti who was baptizing
them and he told me that I was going to, suprise! We thought it would be cool for the
presidente de rama, and of young mens to do the confirmations, since they know them,
and also the people here really like authority figures.
Ezekiel is 17 years old, his mom and older brother are members, and his dad and
younger siblings are not. He is super addicted to a game called Counter Strike.
He wins money playing it professionally.
Gonzalo is his friend, and is also addicted to Counter Strike. They play it all day, every
day.
This week we talked with a lot of people, and had our stake conference. No
investigators came, but its alright cause the micro that we took to the stake center
was super full.

Week 17

7 March 2016

Hey, so this week we baptized 6 people! It was good. I liked it. I got to
baptize two of them, Jhack and Frahnk.
I also got to confirm Gonzalo, which was pretty scary, and cool.
We had 139 come to the church this week,
which is by far the most ever. E' Rosti got changed to monte grande,
and I got a new comp, E' Cedeño de Panama. He really, really, really likes
Panama, and plays football americano.

Week 16

29 February 2016
 
This week we had 6 people commit to baptism for 5 de marzo. Pretty cool, also we ate ice cream this week. Not the same, but it was still good. Got to see Elder Bednar, and he talked to us about missionary work, so that was cool. He gave our mission the blessing of an apostle with the authority of the Melchizedek priesthood. Spanish is going alright, I kinda understand the general idea when people talk, especially about church stuff. That's just about all that happened this week, Hasta proxima,
