Being a missionary is the best!

Messing around with my companion and Matius.

 
What a week, seriously!  It flew by so fast.  Yesterday was día del amigo so that was cool.  Argentina does a bunch of random holidays just for commercial reasons I think, but they´re fun little breaks.  To celebrate, we had to speak in church.  That was a lot of fun... they always call the missionaries because they know that we are going to be in town.  We actually got there and we had to teach the classes, too.  So it was pretty much a day with the missionaries!  And the elders got off the hook with everything.  But this week was really great.  We went to Necochea to help out the missionaries find people and stuff.  It´s not our area, but we could still be instruments in God´s hands.  

We were walking on a dirt road and we saw a house.. we walked passed and we felt we needed to knock it.  It pretty much had a giant river blocking it so we had to get a little wet to get there, but crossed the puddle and knocked the door.  Out came a lady that didn´t seem really interesting and she was evangélica so we didn´t think that she was going to listen to a word that we had to say.  But she seemed really intent, and then in the end, she opened up and told us that her nephew had died the day before.  Wow, how great is God.  That he sent us the DAY AFTER to give her some comfort.  We could share some scriptures with her and help her to feel some peace.  That´s the best part of the mission.  That everyday, you can meet different people with different difficulties and concerns.

Seriously, being a missionary is the best!  As for Oscar and Nilda, Satan is sending everything he has at them because he knows they have a lot of potential.  They came to church with us yesterday, but are having a lot of problems, so I will update you on them in the next week.  They really are so golden!  

Well, don´t get trunky, but I miss you guys :)

See you in 3! 
Yesterday was Dia Del Amigo.  Aka Friend Day - so we had an asado:)


Horse leg on the ground, what?  Yeah, we don't know.
