Week 32

I hope everyone is doing well. I love all of the Emails and pictures that I have gotten this week. It has been super hot here, but not as hot as White Salmon, but it doesn't feel at all like winter. This week we had our last conference with our mission president. He leaves this week to go back to his home and a new one will come this week. It was really great though and he talked about the book of Mormon and its importance in the church and the lives of our investigators. We did a lot of walking again but it was all good. This Sunday we had 17 people come to church including the missionaries. This is a really small branch. It was also my companions birthday this Sunday and he got two cakes that were super delicious. This p-day we went to Oran, which is the "big" city close to us to play soccer. That was fun and there were a lot of members that came to play with us which is always great. But yeah that was my week. I forgot to take pictures this week but I will try to take some next week.

Love and miss you all lots.

Week 31

Feliz dia de el padre. This week has been pretty great for those of you who don´t remember I am now in a little town called Pichanal. It is hot here. I have only had to use a long sleeve shirt one day when there was a bunch of wind. It was a big difference coming from a big ward to a little branch but it is also really nice. This week I had my companion cut my hair and that went well. I also walked a ton because all of our people we are teaching are on different parts of the town, but the good thing is that it is super flat here. You can see mountains wayyyyyy off in the distance but other than that it is completely level. I also got sick for the first time in basically all my mission. On Friday I woke up in the early morning and started puking. So I couldn't do much that day besides lie in my bed and hope for it to pass. This Sunday I had to give a talk and that went well there were less than 20 people at church but everyone is super nice there. I didn't sleep much Saturday night because we live in Centro which is the middle of the city and there are about 3 or 4 clubs that are super close and there were a bunch of people partying right outside our house. Today for my P day we went to the other elders house and there we played soccer with a bunch of members. That was pretty fun as well. I still don´t have the thing to send my fotos but  I am working on that.

Well I love and miss everyone a ton.

Hey I used the adapter of my companion and I have a few pictures.  All of them but one are from my other area the one with the street view is the new view from my new house.

Week 30

Well transfers came and went and I finally moved areas. Right now I am technically still in the providence Salta but I am in a little town that is called Pichanal. My companion also left the area and they closed our area so now Elder Fuentes has all of Mitre 1 and Mitre 2. I had to ride for almost 4 hours in a bus to get to my area and my new companion is called Elder Diamantino. He seems to be pretty great. All of the members were sad to see me go. I am sorry I still can't send pictures but my thingy to read my memory card isn't working right now and I need to buy a new one. Well I am sorry that I don't have more to write but I will be better next week.

Love and miss you lots.

Week 29

Well another week has gone by and I have no idea where it went. This week was freaking cold so very very cold it actually got below freezing one day and that was interesting. This week we had a lot of lessons to teach but  unfortunately no one showed up to church this Sunday. I am almost 100% sure I am going to get moved this next week because I have been in this area for almost 6 months now. I had to get my flu shot today which was sucky but not all that bad. I am having a hard time remembering my week but I am sorry there aren't any pictures. I broke my SD card reader so I can´t connect my camera to the computer but I think I will buy one this week. We also had interviews with the mission president and that was nice but this is going to be his last week in the mission because we are getting a new president the next week. Well that is all for now sorry I can´t remember much.
