I am so grateful for the people here. Every day, they are so generous and they treat us so well. It’s hard at times to express how much I appreciate them but I try. I will pass along your message to them!

We have a group of kids right now that are really faithful. It amazes us. They are friends and cousins of Mauro. They show up to church every Sunday, walking from their houses which are about 10 minutes away. The thing is, is that the kids are really faithful, but a little crazy, too. It’s hard to control them because they are never disciplined and usually they only have one parent. But still we are amazed at their faith! 

Tell him (Brother Da Silva) I said hi back! Tell him "Bon dia." Our investigators are good. Some are progressing really well but others don’t have too much time for us.

This week was good! This week was the finale of Copa America! So everyone was updating us on who was advancing. Yesterday a team from Tucuman advanced up a division and it was crazy. It sounded like a war because of all the fireworks and noises! And then the finale of Copa America was yesterday, too. Argentina took 2nd and it’s kind of a sore subject. But yesterday there was no one in the streets! It was like a ghost town.
  
We have a baptism for Belen this week. She has been progressing amazingly well. She always has good questions and she always reads what we give her.

Daniel is doing well. He is being a missionary even before his baptism. He is 50 years old and is waiting on some paperwork before his baptism. He has been taking friends to church and has been talking to his son-in-law who is interested in the gospel. It’s an amazing thing.

Pablo, the brother of Mauro is working a lot right now. It’s hard for him to find time between school and work for us.

We are talking to an older couple! But it’s a couple! We are excited to be talking with them! His name is Oscar and they really felt the spirit when we talked about Eternal Families.

We had a conference with one of the Seventy, Elder Jorge Luis Romeu. We helped organize a minibus to be able to take our investigators and members to the conference. It was a success. We had 7 investigadores (investigators) and about 4 less actives assist with us! Elder Romeu talked a lot about the family. It was really good. He talked about family councils and the important roles of the mother and father.

They eat a lot of panza here. That's stomach haha. And, well, I am getting used to it a little more, but it’s still a little weird.

The weeks are going by so fast and in two more weeks it’s the end of my second transfer, and I believe with Elder Guzman, too. I am a little nervous and am trying to learn how I can be better still. I know I have a lot to learn, and I know that I need the help of my Heavenly Father, and my Savior every day. I’m grateful for your support! I’m grateful that you both served missions, Mom and Dad! :)

Much Love

This is just a picture of one of the beautiful days here. There are two sets of mountain ranges, one is green and one is usually brown because it is rock, but it snowed in the mountains and so the range behind is white.

I found a pole with my name on it today. haha


This is just us in a house of Kadija with her family. Kadija was the most recent baptism we had, and her family is really welcoming.
