Ay che, todo piola

Well everyone, I have very little time to write, we were having a goodbye party for my companion Elder Vivanco, so sorry that I responded to literally 0 people today:(.

Hope everyone is doing super well! This week was awesome and man I was rusty with my spanish. We were in quarantine until Saturday. 

-Friday I helped Hma Chacon with a presentation to 2 zones about facebook and how to utilize correctly (everyone says I'm going to be an ETR) 

-Friday night we had a huge asado with Presidente Fernandez and Hma Fernandez! They are so much fun, and he only cooks his meat SUPER well done (so for those who don't like well done steak, don't come to Argentina, they think everything else is alive)

-Saturday I got picked up by Elder Valdebenito and Elder Vivanco. We had 2 baptisms that day with Ermilimda and Thiago. They were so awesome and Thiago is the sweetest kid! We finished the night with another asado of some recent converts that, and we're going to start teaching their friend and the daughter that were there!

-Sunday, had 7 people come to church! And we we met carmen in person, the woman I found off of Facebook! Let's gooooo!! Then we visited a ton of convets for Elder Vivanco at night, twas a party. And had a 3rd asado, I have never eaten so much meat before.

-This week I had the opportunity to read from King Benjamin's sermon in Mosiah 2-5 and it was absolutely amazing! I love the scriptures such as Mosiah 3:17 and Acts 4:12. A savior is necessary and the only name under which we are returned back to our heavenly father is Jesus Christ. Verses 5-17 are a powerful sermon the ministry and atonement of Jesus Christ. 

-I know that Christ lives and that we are made whole through him and his Gospel!

-Ama a toda persona y a toda cosa!!

-Elder Bennett

-(I'll get all the pictures of the baptisms next week)

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...

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...
