(no subject)

Well, Monday is here everyone, it's Monday, yes peeps, it is Monday :). We played some pickle ball (Florida at 2 pm is REALLY HOT) but we actually taught a lesson before we started our p-day, super cool guy from Guayana and wants us to drop off a book of mormon :) We had a BEAST bible trivia live event (go judge my skills people). But not to much happened, tis all good 

So, after monday, I forgot to write everyday, so yeah, sorry fellas, deprived of my comedic genius for the week. But this week was pretty good!!

We invited our friend Mark to Baptism on Augist 1!! WOOOOOOOOO, HE'S SO EXCITED!!! LET'S GOOOOOOOOOOO!! And then we got 4 people to virtual church, that was a wild time

Sunday, we had a visitor from Florida call us and ask for us to give her the sacrament, so met good ol Haley! She was super nice, and was super thankful we were able to give her that. Not gonna lie, wish there were more chances to get out of the house and do service, but most people are hesitant to have other people over here in florida

Also, WE GOT ELDER HUGHES!!! He's from sequim, Washington, so we've bonded over the really random things from Washington out there (since mi madre es de Port Angeles) so everyone, GO TO SWAIN'S!!! IT HAS EVERYTHING!!! He was reassigned from Brazil, so he's teaching me Portuguese!!! Finally, I'M LEARNING PORTUGUESE!!! YAYAYAYAYAYAYAYA

Also, everyone pray for Martha! We haven't been able to get into contact with her, since she only has a landline, so EVERYONE PRAY FOR HER!!! 

This week, in Alma 19:16-18 we read the story of Abish. She's an overlooked character in the book of mormon, but plays a huge part in the conversion of the lamanites. Ammon of course played his part in the conversion of the King, but Abish is the reason that there was a huge crowd, there to witness the event, and to hear the words of the queen and king and them testifying of their conversion. Be like Abish, invite others to join you, in everything! Not everyone has had the chance to come to know Christ, and all they need is an invitation!!

I can't remember anything when I'm writing weekly emails, and I'm always all over the place, so sorry everyone, lol

But love you all

-Amen a todas las personas y a todas las cosas

-Elder Bennett (extraño hablando en español, jaja)



1) We got homemade bread and rootbeer from the members!!

2) Our man, ELDER HUGHESSS

3) Happy 1 year to our mission president

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...
