all nighters!!

Well everyone, what a time!!

This week, we're trying to clean up our area, but we finally got to enter the villa, villa of our area. It wasn't as dangerous as everyone said it was, lol

Highlights of the week:

-Had an intercambio with Elder Guanilo, almost went in the most dangerous villa in our mission (don't worry, we didn't go in)

-Saw Eugenia, a recent convert of one my companions that loves me, I got to see her, it was so awesome!

-WENT BACK TO GUERNICA!!!!! LADIES AND GENTLEMEN!!! We took a remis and got to the train in Lomas de Zamora and then ended up in Guernica. Was super fun, and we had to get up at 3 am to fill up the font, and what tends to happen on exchanges is you end up talking for a while. So, we ended up not sleeping until 3 am, then we went to the church and got everything ready, and Andres got baptized at 8 am!!!!

-We had an asado with the llanos rodriguez family, and they gave me a magnet and a river mug, I absolutely love Guernica, then we took an uber and went on back to Villa Madero

-Had Zone conference this week, and it was absolutely amazing. We talked about consistenly being focused on your missionary purpose

Invitamos a las personas a venir a Cristo al ayudarles a que reciban el evangelio restaurado mediante la fe en Jesucristo y su expiacion, el arrepentimiento, el bautismo, la recepcion de don del espiritu santo y el perserverar hasta el fin
In Alma 34, a great importance, as all of the canon of scriptures are, is the atonement. In verse 17, it says, "17 Therefore may God grant unto you, my brethren, that ye may begin to exercise your faith unto repentance, that ye begin to call upon his holy name, that he would have mercy upon you" 

Then verses 18-27 show when you should and what you can pray for. This shows that prayer itself is an act of repentance. If each day we're willing to humble ourselves before God and to change for the better, each and everyday. Remember to pray. It shows your love to God. Each day, go through your day, and seek to make small adjustments to become more like Christ, and as we do so, we can be perfected... eventually (in the famous words of holland). 

Christ is real, he existed, and is the savior and redeemer of the world. Our mistakes will never be permanent , and our strengths can be amplified

Ama a todas las personas y a todas las cosas

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 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...
