DINO NUGGGGGSSSSS (and I still don't understand spanish)

We begin the end of october, with the scene opening up on a rubio, balling out in soccer in the rain. Life is good in the hood, and we taught Viviana today, and have a cita with Paula later this week! I love talking and teaching kids, they're the best! And at ciber, OUR AREA HAD 5 NEW REFERENCES! We gonna work a ton this week, I'm pumped. 3 nephi 11:33 for ya fellas :)
So, for district meeting, we straight up just did 2 gritos on the train! I love gritos, they're so much fun! Afterwards, I got to go on an inter-cambio with Elder Rose. Definitely the most fun I've had on my mission, exploring his area, and he bought me 2 alfahors and a lot of empanadas! Didn't have time to get to the scripture that night though, but I'll keep the grind.

All the stomachs of the longchamp elders have been attacked. I recoverd quickly, I can't say the same of the other 3. FLORENCIA WANTS TO BE BAPTIZED! WOOOOOO! Found Julieta again, and she still wants to talk to us, so life is all good there. The rest of wednesday was a lot of walking and a lot of no's. Tis all good, just as the muppets say, life's a happy song :) Watched a woman hack at a tree with a machete, good times. Memorized 3rd nephi 11:33 in spanish and John 5:39 in english, grind don't stop, ladies and gentlemen

So, thursday, I peeled an apple, ate some dino nugs, had a dog pee on me during a lesson, good stuff. Memorized Ether 12:18, and then proceedeed to pass out on my bed before falling asleep, quick day.
So Garcia has been feeling sick, so we pretty much spent the whole day up in temperley dealing with the hospital service of Argentina (don't worry yáll, he's all good) but memorized 3rd Nepgi 5:13 in spanish! And made some Carmelitas for Florencia's Baptism!!! (I would like to add, our weekly advice comes from Hercules this week, Ï know that every mile, will be worth my while."Good ol Hercules.

So, spoke too soon on the baptism. We had it all set up, and... Florencia didn't show up. She read the part in the BoM about God cursing the lamanites, and wasn't too happy about it. We shared 2 nephi 26:33 over the phone to her, which helped, but she said today wasn't the day :( Then Garcia said his stomach was not okay, so we sat in the pench the rest of the day. Got me a good scripture though, DC 18:10 in espanol. 

Ended the week, with Garcia telling me his shoulder hurt, literally all day long. But we finally got to talk to Paula!! She's super capo, and is super, super nice. She teaches kids with mental disabilities, and just loves everyone! Paula is the best. That was pretty much all of sunday, and then I memorized Romans 8:38-39 (you will always have the love of Christ fellas)

Aman todas las personas y todas las cosas

HOPPY PASCUAS A TODOS QUE LEEN ESTA CARTA Y LOS DEMAS!!! ESPERO QUE DISFRTUARAN SU FIN DE SEMANA CON LOS PROFETAS Y APOSTOLES!!!!! This week was definitely was an interesting one, where do I start We had interviews this week, but my companion and I didn't get them, because we had to go to Glew for a stake meeting, and the Elders before us went too long. So instead we did some roleplays of the restoration of the gospel, and then the assistants drove us to Glew, where we listened to a big ol stake meeting. We then spent the night with the Glew Elders, ELDER SOSA Y ELDER BLACKHAM!!!!  We had our first english class this week, so that was exciting. I got to teach english to all the people in my district, so that's an exciting time. Let me tell ya, I do not know how to teach english. I'll do my best. Some latinos already speak a lot and others don't know a single word, so you make due. Everyone is ready to learn though! We met our friend Juan Diaz this week. He's absolut...

We put both of them on date, and both are loving the book of mormon and got permission from their parents, MIRACLES!!!! AND BOTH OF THEM CAME TO CHURCH, YEEEEEEHAAAAAWWW!!! We had zone conference, and it was powerful! Elder Thacker and I gave a training on being a 'Preach My Gospel' missionary. I loved it! Then President spoke all about the atonement, because that is our central doctrine. EVERYTHING revolves around the atonement, without it, we are lost in our fallen and mortal state.  WE HAD AN AWESOME LESSON WITH ERIC!! IT'S BEEN FOREVER, BUT BISHOP PATEL JOINED IN AND IT WAS POWERFUL. We talked about how sometimes, God only gives us what we need at the moment, and not everything can or wil...
