I'm suppose to major in math, and yet I don't remember numbers, this is bad

 WELL FELLAS!! ANOTHER WEEK!! AND WE ARE LIVING LIFE!!

I TOTALY FORGOT TO SAY LAST WEEK THAT OUR FRIEND MARK GOT BAPTIZED!! I taught him for the first 2.5 months I was here, invited him to be baptized, he was ecstatic, and then we found he lived in another area! But HE MADE IT, WE LOVE MARK!!! My comp has screenshots of good ol Mark, so we'll get those real soon!

This week was definitely slow, we're trying to utilize family history work more, and if anyone knows how to run an emergency prep class, let us know, I'm still trying to figure that one out.

We did start planning a podcast with a member, Bro Espinoza!! He's awesome and wants to be involved in missionary work in anyway he can, so we're going to get him involved in our facebook page, so Facebook starts to find those ready to receive the gospel!

WE GOT A NEW CAR!!! 2020 CHEVY EQUINOX!!! IT WAS BRAND NEW, I WAS FREAKING OUT!!! AND I GET TO DRIVE IT!! Our car's name is Quin, you can all decide if that's a girl or a guy, I'm just gonna stick as the person driving the car. 

I ran 2 TIMES THIS WEEK! AND OHMYHECK, I AM OUT OF SHAPE!!! YEEEEEHAAAAWWWW!!! LET'S GO! I LOVE RUNNING!!! Only a mile each time, but what can ya do. 

This week, I focused a lot on what the atonement is, and what it means. I know, that I have never truly understood the Atonement, until my mission. Because of what Christ did, because of his sacrifice, ANY EFFORT, in a positive direction, shows we love him. 2 nephi 25:23 states "after all we can do" but in reality, what can we do? Ammon and Moses both saw the nothingness of man, and how without God, our life would be futile, there would be no direction! 2 nephi 26:25 is an invite, to partake of the greatness of the Atonement, without charge. The gift of Grace is amazing, and cannot be understated.

Choose to turn back to God! I invite you all to ask God in prayer this week, what can I do for you? After all, he and our Heavenly Mother have done everything for us!!

-Amen a toda persona y a toda cosa

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!!!

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...

 TAMPA BUCS FOR THE W!! ROAD TO SUPER BOWL LV!!! EVERYONE CHEER FOR THE BUCS BECAUSE I AM CURRENTLY LIVING 15 MINUTES FROM STADIUM, WOOOOOOOOO!!!! 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...
