Elder Fiabane... well he is still in Circunvalaciòn II and
where am I?
Well I am in a really crazy place in Formosa called
Circunvalaciòn II, jaja All that suspense and was it a let down? I am happy
though. I have a good companion and we are going to have about 5 or 6 baptisms
this transfer even if we are having troubles getting people to go to church.
This week wasn`t very exciting. I got sick during the middle
of the week with a cold that seems to be hitting everyone and that is finally
almost gone. The fungus bacteria on my feet has almost gone away too.
We have started the papers for two of our three baptisms
next week!
Sebastian, Manuel, and Katherina. They are siblings and all
will be getting baptized the 24th. There are pictures of us with them in
dropbox! They are all very cool and I am very excited for their baptism. I
think that president might even come to that baptism if he can because he
helped teach Sebastian in a lesson. This week we have been having the fun of
having to kill a lot of investigators and now we are running low. We will be
focusing on finding a lot this coming week and hope that that goes well. We
right now have 14 people with fecha baptismal for the 24th but only three are
going to happen then we will only have 4... It is hard because a lot of people
show interest and set a date but then stop receiving us or just don`t answer or
algo asì and then we get left wasting time trying to teach them while they
don`t answer. We only pass by two or three times but that can add up when
almost all of your investigators do that...
One cool thing that happened this week was we had a surprise
baptism!
Our zone leaders called us Saturday night and told us that
we were going to be baptizing someone the following day. We had to organize
everything and that Saturday ended up being really crazy. Setting up the
baptism wasn`t bad but two hours before the service started our talks started
bailing on us. Then we didn`t have the key to open the baptismal font because
the Hermanas had taken them the week before and the keys the bishop gave us
didn`t work. Luckily in the end it all worked out the Hermanas brought the keys
a half hour after the supposed starting time and all the parts were filled
(mostly by my companion and I, haha). It was a little bit of a mess but now
Jorge is baptized, jaja
Sounds like you guys had an awesome road trip! I am jealous

polo! It is a lot of fun! and did you know it is 17:41 on a Argentine tarde?

Grandma Peterson:
It was great to hear your view on the chapter of the
apostles being sent out in Jesus the Christ. When I was reading that part I
wasn`t that excited about it but it shows how when you look at it in a
different way how it can mean so much more. That part means a lot more now to
me. It has been a great read and I am enjoying it. I am at the expiation right
now. Talmage was talking about how all the trials of the Jews were unfair. One
thing that I don`t like is at times Talmage goes off on his own little stories
that are not scriptural and can be odd. Also he writes unnecessarily wordily
that doesn`t add to the book, if anything can detract from it at times. But I
really have enjoyed learning a ton of new things that I never knew about Christ
and it has been really enlightening.
I love you all and can`t wait to hear from you next week!
