Saying Goodbye to President and Hermana Heyman

We have a few people who are progressing right now. The biggest problem is that no one attended church this last Sunday so that pushes everyone back and makes us wonder if they might not be as prepared as we thought. We are going to have to stop by everyone and see what happened. I think that we are going to have to drop a few investigators and it is going to be hard because they have so much potential but just won’t go to church....

We went to the last big conference with President Heyman this morning at 8am and we had to practice the efy medley that we would be singing for Pte and Hermana Heyman. Then they all arrived and we listened to some really good musical numbers that had been put together and testimonies of president Heyman´s councilor and his wife then Elder Heyman (who has been here the last three weeks. He is has been teaching in different areas with president and the assistants), Hermana Heyman, and President Heyman. Then we had the efy medley. After that we all got in line for lunch (It was Subway! They have recently put a new subway in Corrientes. It isn´t as good as Subway at home but it was still really good!). The best part was that I got to see everyone and talk to them. I talked a lot to Elder Fiabane, Elder Delgado, Elder Taylor, Elder Mossman, Elder Perez, Elder Clemons, and others that I know. During lunch they played a new mission video and also a video that returned missionaries sent to be played. Then after that we took a mission picture. After they started a line to say goodbye to President and Hermana Heyman and the line was super long and took forever to move so I just talked to people until the line got short. It was a lot of fun. Also President Heyman and Hermana Heyman gave us covers for our planners and a random food item from their food storage. I got coco crisps, haha It is crazy to think that they are leaving! It was sad and I am sure that I will miss them. I am excited for President and Hermana Franco to come though. We will see what happens and the changes it brings. 

We haven´t meet President Franco yet. He doesn´t get here until the 1st of July. At that point I am not quite sure what will happen but I think that we will have multi zone conferences and interviews either starting when he gets here or the next transfer which is two weeks after he gets there. I really hope that he changes stuff. I heard today that in the mission posadas (the mission that branched off of this one) that they are allowed to get together for zone activities on pday and drink matte, etc. We will see what President Franco says..!

I will have to read the scriptures Grandpa Pickle sent for me! I have been more than anything studying in the Liahona the last session of conference. We just barley received it this last Tuesday and I hadn´t even heard the priesthood session so I have been reading that and others.

We have had to stay in our pensh during and the hours following the Argentina games in the world cup. The people go crazy here when Argentina plays, haha Half of the people are wearing Argentina jerseys and everyone is watching the game. Whenever there is a goal then you will hear fireworks, shots, and lots of noise, haha It is crazy and I am sure as they progress to farther rounds it will get even crazier. I don´t know if they will make it that far though because everyone has been telling me that they aren´t playing very good and that Messi has been disappointing them. 

I am very grateful for the letters that you write me every week! Hardly any other missionaries have such great families that write so much. I am very grateful because I love to hear from you guys and what you are up to. I hope that you know that I appreciate your letters every week!

Sorry if the letter is kind of short, I feel drained and I don´t know what to write, haha
