FELIZ NAVIDAD!!

I AM SO SUNBURNED. Of course a Bennett would start their email like that. But that's what happens when you play soccer for 3 hours! Despues we had lunch from food trucks! Best smoothie I have ever had (coconut, strawberry, and pineapple, fresh fruit baby) Went ham after p'day at night! And we baked cookies for our investigators! Memorized DC 1:37 in ingles! LA OBRA MISIONAL ES LA VIDA POR MI!!!!

Well, MERRY CHRISTMAS EVE!! This is party day in Argentina. Had zone conference, I got everyone laughing with my acting skills (I was a screaming baby) and passed out our cookies to our investigators and did a secret santa for Graciela. Dropped a bunch of food and toys off in front of her house, clapped, and ran. Had dinner with Familia Maldonaldo!! Capos, huge dinner, and we got back to the pench at 12:30

Well, woke up at 10 on christmas, I felt like garbage, and we didn´t have to leave until 3 (everyone was drunk or sleeping so yeah= CHRISTMAS MIRACLE, IT WASN´T HOT AND IT RAINED!! But no one wanted to listen to us. Did teach Mariano and his friend Macarena. I almost drank some good ol coffee that they gave us, but right before I sipped, I asked what it was, lol.  Memorized DyC 1:37 in espanol and 2 nephi 32:3 in ingles. FEAST UPON THE WORD OF CHRIST

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ELIZA, WOOOOOO!!!!!!! LOVE YOU TONS!!!! Felt like garbage today, but taught some beast lessons, me and Allen sang Bohemian Rhapsody in the street, and it rained, A LOT, and we didn´t have our jackets. SOAKED TO THE BONE. Super fun, and had french toast for dinner :) 2 nephi 32:3 in espanol!

Well, all of our citas cancelled on friday, and it was HOT AS BALLS!! Gave a blessing of health to Graciela, and had a noche de hogar for the ward. Not much happened, but what can ya do. Alma 41:10 hoy

Well, me and Allen sang hamilton in the colectivo, oh flipping heck yeah. Virginina went on a rant sesh during our lesson, so we were late to lunch (not about us, don´t worry). Visisted the best family in the world, Lisa. They gave us a BUTT TON OF CHICKEN, for new years eve, since we can´t pass the day with a member. Today will forever be remembered as the day that missionaries can no longer drink Manaos :(, NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. But memorized Alma 41:10 in espanol
Well, went to a lot of people in the morning, and called A LOT of people, but no one came to church :( and today was flipping hot and my stomach was not good. Literally, after lunch, I RAN BACK TO THE PENCH, man I´ve had some close calls in the mission. About an hour later in the streets, I had to speed walk back to the pench, good times. Memorized 2 nephi 22:5 in ingles. I mean, if yall didn´t know, Jesus Christ has done some good things, or basically the greatest thing. The Atonement is real, and if we use it right, it is the greatest gift that has ever or could ever be given to us!!

-Amen todas las personas y todas las cosas

Sorry everyone, last preparation day was interesting, so didn't have much time to do anything, lol, but life is good in Argentina ladies and gentlefolks I got to do a baptismal interview of Elizabeth leteno, from laferrere. That was humbling and powerful, to see the hope that the gospel has brought to her life, and I got to go to her baptism and help the Lafe Elderes!  We had a good ol tormenta blanca en nuestro area. Se explotó la carpeta de area.  HAD INTERVIEWS WITH PRESIDENT!!!! Haven't had that happen since I got here, so it was good to talk to him. He was super rushed, so we didnt get a ton of time to talk, but a SPIRITUAL GIANT Presidente Fernandez THEN WE GOT TO DO AN INTERCAMBIO WITH MY HERO ELDER THOMAS!!! I FETCHING LOVE HIM! HE'S SUCH A BEAST!!!! We went and visited some people he had taught in the area, and blew up every colectivo that we went in.  On monday, DISTRICT ACTIVITY!!!

FELICES PASCUAS!!!!

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...

Hope that caught everyone's attention, but this week was absolutely awesome!  We had some awesome lessons with our friends Tin and Ani! 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...
