Why are you going to Resistencia?

We are getting ready for the baptism of Joel this coming Sunday!!! Now just to see if I will be here or not, haha I think so but you never know with transfers. It is really cool because even though he is only nine years old he really loves learning about the gospel. Really all of the kids (there are eight of them, haha). They are always fighting over who gets to pray or who gets to read and they are sad if it isn´t their turn, haha. They are all really awesome. The mom of this family is the half-sister of Hna Lugo. She hasn´t gone to church in a while and had been thinking about going back but it was just a small thought. She said when we came to visit her that inspired her to go and she has gone every week since! 

Santiago we are working with him right now... He is more just playing around right now. He is always laughing and not taking a lot of things seriously. It is ok if we laugh but he only will talk about how he isn´t getting an answer from god and then take the answers we give him as jokes. We will see how it goes.

As far as tourist locations in Argentina there aren´t really any here in my mission. There is Iguassu falls that is out of the mission in Misiones. That would be a must see. Also I think that there are some ruins over there as well. The other thing would be visiting members and converts like the familia Lugo, Lopez, Barrios, Junco, Rosa, Puladas, Fletes, and a few others. The biggest thing would probably be visiting them because this area isn´t known for tourists. If you arrive in Buenos Aires and tell them that you are going to Resistencia they would ask you why? And tell you that there is nothing there, haha that happened to a lot of the missionaries here: P

We don’t have furnaces in our pensh just an electric heater. It is a little smaller than a square foot. It works pretty well for now but when the winter comes in full force it will still be cold. I don´t know anyone here that has a furnace I don´t think...

Where I am at now it is very different from Formosa for a lot of reasons. First of all is that now I have a lot more experience as a missionary. When I was in Formosa I didn´t have any experience and I didn´t really ever have a trainer to teach me what to do. I had to learn everything for myself. So now that I have gotten things figured out it makes a lot of difference. Also the area is very different. In Formosa the people are a lot more receptive than here. We still have people that accept us but not as much as Formosa. At that time I didn´t and couldn´t understand the difference because I had never seen anything else. Now I can see what it is like in the rest of the mission and I would like to go back to Formosa capital! Haha We will see if that ever happens. 

I like the Mormon Message that Dad did! It was awesome! You´ll have to send it in to the church and get it put on Mormon.org I didn´t get to see the end though because it wouldn´t let me for some reason....


I love you guys very much and can´t wait to hear from you next week!
