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.

Week 28

Well hello family and friends how are you? This week was super fast and I can´t believe it is over already. There was a lot of good things that happened this week. We had a bunch of service. It was funny because our leader de distrito was praying to have service and now we have more then we can do. This week we helped paint a house and move 300 concrete bricks up a huge hill. The hill was super steep and it took us over 5 hours to move them all. We had to split it into 2 different day.  We also had an open house at the church and that went really well. There were a bunch of members that helped out and quite a few investigators showed up. I had to be in white clothes and was talking about baptism and the Holy Ghost but I was super cold the entire time. I have still been getting up early with my companion to go to physical therapy so I have been super sleepy this entire week. I was also surprised by how cold it was this week.

Well I love and miss you lots!

Week 26

How is all going? This week has been pretty good. For those of you who don't know this week was mothers day and I got to call my family for that. It was pretty great but it was actually really hard to talk to them in English I kept speaking in Spanish. Also another adventure this week is I broke my seat post in half because it got super bent by another elder and then after riding it for a while it started bending more and more until it almost broke.We  also had a zone conference this week and it is the last one for our mission president because he leave this transfer. Also we had a lot of service this week because one of the recent converts in the other missionaries area house burnt down so we went a helped them out a lot. It was really sad because we help move out almost all of their stuff that had burnt. Well I think that is all of my interesting stories for the week.
I love and miss you all lots.

Week 25

Well all of the members in this ward were super happy that I didn't change areas which is great. This week has been a bit long because Elder Fuentes is training a new missionary and he snores really loud. Really really loud. So I haven´t been sleeping very well but luckily I remembered that my dad had sent ear plugs for Christmas that I almost threw away in the MTC but still had so one night in the middle of the night I got up and I started digging though my luggage to find these earplugs so that I could actually sleep. After that I started sleeping a lot better. This week has been fun though there is a new missionary and he is latino de Buenos Aires but he doesn't know too much about the mission so we have been having fun teaching him things. Today we convinced him that the red side of a rubix cube was harder to start then all the other sides. Today for p-day we played soccer ...football... I almost got knocked out because I got tripped and smacked my head against the ground and then right after that I ran into one of the goal posts. But it was really fun and I am fine now.

Well I miss you all lots

Week 24

Well this week has been pretty great but I don't have much time to write so sorry but I will try to give the highlights of the week. First I am still in Mitre I didn't end up changing areas which is awesome because I love the people here. I am staying with Elder Osorio. I actually got bitten by a dog but luckily it just bit my shoe and nothing else. Our leader missional got his call today and he is going to Lima Peru for his mission. Today we had an activity with the sacerdocio because it was a holiday and we played soccer in the hot hot sun. Well I have to go sorry this is a bit rushed.
Love and miss you all
