9 months! Flying by.
SO this week was an eventful one. Saturday we got permission
to leave
early to go help a family with some service. You
get to their
house by hopping on the colectivo that takes you as far out
of Resistencia
as you can get (which is my area) then walking about 45
minutes to get to
their house. We entered to change out of working hard (shirt
and tie)
clothes to play
clothes to get ready to do some service. I could feel the spirit
strongly in their little home. They have a packed dirt floor
with a house made
out of sticks and mud. To heat the home in which I couldn´t
fully stand, they
had a little fire in the corner, and for beds they had a
plastic tarp. What humble
loving people. When they come to church they wake up
incredibly early, but they
are beginning to come
more frequently. One thing I have come to learn and feel is
God´s love for ALL of his children. A gringo thousands of
miles away from home on
his knees asking for help, a family out in a toba barrio, or
a member who has
addiction problems. He loves them all and wants them ALL to
have the best and to
achieve eternal life.
Another
problems, disagreements, and long story short, their
upcoming marriage almost fell
through. They are working on all the paperwork and blood
tests, so everything will
work out now. But we taught them about The Family: A
Proclamation to the World.
How powerful is this doctrine of the eternal family. They
are excited once again to go
get married and make these sacred covenants with God.
The mission conference was incredible. With the whole office
being sick, we had no
clue how we were
going to pull it off. But everything worked out perfectly. Even the
270 sandwiches coming from the Subway in Corrientes (oh,
heavenly) worked out
perfectly! I sang in a quartet with some of my best friends
in the mission to start off
the event, and the spirit in the whole conference was
incredible. The song of the mission
was so touching. I know that this is the work of the Lord. I
am so blessed to be able to
see the fruits and joys of it on a regular basis.

Incredible week!
Family and Friends!
This week has definitively had its fair shares of ups and downs. More ups than downs—
it´s the work of the Lord. I know that it is. I feel almost selfish saying that there were
downs.
We spend a good 4 hours waiting around in the registro civil to help Ariel get married...
just to find out they have been on strike for 3 weeks, and are planning to lift the strike
in a week or so... We stood outside the building for a good while and took some time to
pray in our hearts. I know that it is God´s will that they be married, so we will be praying
hard for them.
We were able to get to know the Canciano family. They live half an hour by bus and an
hour by foot from the church. What an amazing family. It just goes to show that God
loves all of his children, even if you live far away from everyone.
It is incredible to see the changes in the lives of people. I can´t say this enough. I love
seeing the hearts of people be softened and changed completely. I love that the
atonement of Jesus Christ is so empowering. We just need to be humble and willing
enough to utilize it.
I love this work. I love it I love it I love it. I learn so much daily, and I am truly just so
blessed to be a part of it. I focus so much on the blessings of the commandments as I
study personally. Testifying, and being a personal witness in my life and the life of my
family of the law of Chastity to Ariel and Isabel was powerful. And I know that as we
recognize these blessings in our personal lives, we will continue receiving even more.
Thank you so much for everything President!
