This place is a tad bit weird

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 just scared to walk alone. Memorized Mosiah 24:14

Welp, IT IS HOT AND HUMID!! Tis all good. Not much happened. Talked with Ahailen for a while and her family. Turns our their best friends with some members, would ya look at that. But we just grinded today. Memorized Mosiah 24:14 in espanol. "Yo Señor Dios, visito a mi pueblo en sus aflicciones." We have never been promised that trials will be taken from us, but if we remain with God, he will lighten the load!

Friday was good and fun. FOLLOW YOUR PROMPTINGS, EVEN IF THEY DON'T MAKE A TON OF SENSE. We visited Susana and Alva. ALVA TOLD US SHE KNOWS THE BOM IS TRUE!!!! WOOOOOOOOOO!!! FLIPPING CAPA! We got soaked after lunch (because no one brought jackets, and it POURED RAIN), but I made a trash bag coat (don't worry, we went back to the pench to get our jackets). Had a noche de hogar con Mariela y Juan. Twas fun, and memorized Mosiah 27:36 (Story of Alma the younger)

Welp, Saturday was weird. We had a woman ask us to bless her house, just because, nothing was wrong. And some dude told us we{ve been brainwashed to be here and told us we were serving the cult. Good times. Mosiah 27:36 in espanol "Asi fueron instrumentos en las manos de Dios en llevar a muchos al conocimiento de la verdad, si, al conocimiento de su Redentor"

NOELIA CAME TO CHURCH!!! WOOOOOOOOOOO (Pretty sure she likes Elder Diaz, but we all good). The Elders of the ward (me, Diaz, Smith, and Blackham) performed a musical number, look at us go. The zone got together to practice a big musical number, good times. Look at me just singing my heart away. Memorized 2nd Nefi 4Ñ16.

Vayan y Lean 2nd Nefi 4:16-35. It{s the psalm of Nephi. To see a prophet of God humble himself as Nephi did, with his great testimony, should lead us to humble ourselves before God. As the rich man said to christ "Que mas me falta" or "What lack I yet" Ask God, where you can improve, we can always come closer to Christ!

Hopefully y'all get this email, it's been a fat minute.

-AMEN A 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.

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...
