Welp, we start week 3 of Pontevedra, in Gonzalez Catan. A little change of scenery, to buy me a new mochila. A testigo invited us to his church. We said we would go if he came to our church... he agreed. So we{ll see what happens on Sunday, lol. Memorized 2nd nefi 4:16 in español!! Deleitense en las cosas del Señor!!! Good ol... INTERCAMBIOS!! I got to go with my zone leader, Elder Gage. Freaking capo man, what a guy. I learned a ton on this intercambio! We visited some menos activos, taught me to apply the scriptures in my contacts. Just to be a better missionary! Had some good ol Grido for dinner, man I love grido. Twas a good day. Wednesday. We back in Pontevedra. We spent a fat minute mowing the lawn of one of our members. Mosiah 2:17 is all I have to say. Twas good, met some good ol people and applied what I learned from Gage, and had success! Memorized 3rd Nefi 9:22 in english y espanol "Por tanto, al que se arrepintiere y viniere a mí como un niño pequeñito, yo lo recibiré,...

 Well, I was absolutely, brutally, attacked... by mosquitos during service on Monday. Mosiah 16:8 in ingles. Welp, tuesday, had a woman tell me that cooked and uncooked foods, when eaten together are bad for how your stomach mixes (she also told me to eat bananas con onions, so yeah). AGUSTIN, what a guy, he{s looking for the true church, since he's been around to quite a few. Also, PSA, I HAVE NO IDEA IF I'M RELATED TO JOHN C. BENNETT FROM SAINTS (every single missionary asks me). Mosiah 16:8 in espanol. ZONE CONFERENCE! Welp, Presidente Fernández BAJO LA CANA, PERO MAL. It was a wild ride. Everyone take advantage of the gift of repentance. DC 58:42-43, and Christ will ALWAYS, ALWAYS FORGIVE YOU! Memorized DC 76:22 Welp, I have experienced a Buenos Aires South mission, dang ladrones. Not much happened after that, but DC 76:22 in espanol. THIS IS THE TESTIMONY THAT I GIVE, THAT HE LIVES!!! As Mosiah 2:17 says, as we are in the service of your fellow beings, we are in the servic...

 Welp, transfers ladies and gents. Me and Rose took off at 6:30 after waking up at 4:50. I'm now in Pontevedra B with Elder Diaz from Peru. Super funny, and danced before his mission. He goes ham, he showed me some of his videos. And he says he's going to teach me to do the splits, so we'll see. Memorized Alma 34:41 in english and Spanish. Started the week off strong. GRIND DON'T STOP!!!! Well, there's a bunch of dudes I know in my zone, and it's flipping giant. Today was getting to know the area. Met Ximena, and watched the first vision video with her. If you have time to watch it, would definitely recommend. Met Rosa, she's going to get baptized this Saturday. SHE IS FLIPPING BEAST!! Pontevedra is full of Capos, so we{re gonna grind everyday. Still talking to everyone :) Matthew 18:20 (Christ is with us, as we share his love with others) Welp, we here in Pontevedra. Met some good ol members, and learned, holy crap, I'm going to get fat in this area. Lu...

Well, I've had some technical difficulties here in Pontevedra. Perdonenme!! BUT BALLED UP, THE YANKEE WITH SKILLS LIVES!! Best some good ol fellas in the bus stop. Jasmine y Nicolas. Hay que hablar con todos! Memorized Mosiah 2:22 in ingles fellas! Welp, I have now made the goal to never doubt a spiritual impression. Follow a positive thought, if it drives you to do good, it is of God. Whether it be call someone out of the blue, or say hi to a stranger, DO IT! YOU WILL BE BLESSED! Met Noelia and Alma today. Alma is flipping adorable, me and her are best friends now. Memorized Mosiah 2:22 "Y el nunca varía de lo que ha dicho" GOD DOES NOT VARY FROM HIS WORD! HAVE FAITH IN HIM! Well, had some fun on wednesday. We basically just made a ton of friends. We were laughing so hard so hard in a contact with 3 kids our age. Someone said I was from Japan (this woman needs to get out of the house). We met Yamila, who is hecking prepared, and wants to go to church so bad, she's ju...
