Workin Workin Workin

Hey folks! 

Wow, I sure love you all. 

This last week was a week of service. We helped paint the house of a new family in the ward, and it was a blast. They have a dog that reminds me of Fang from Harry Potter, so that was tight. 

After all the painting, we found 3 new families to teach and we´re so excited to start teaching them.
Our dear friend Andino helped bless the sacrament for the second time. Love him so much.

I was finally able to give Florencia her CTR ring as well. That made me super happy. She and her family are traveling to go to the temple as we speak!!!! So exciting! 

Anyway, everything’s great out here. Just workin workin workin. Trying to keep using my time wisely. 

Lots of crazy stuff happened this week but I don’t have time to write it all. But our dear friend Aldana and her boyfriend Luciano are talking about a marriage date so that’s super exciting. 

Anyway, keep it real guys! Share a smile with somebody, it makes a difference.

El Bautismo de la Florencia

This week, our dear friend Florencia was baptized by her re-activated father Miguel. The service was super great. Miguel bore his testimony at the very end of the service on the restoration of the church. Super powerful. He was a second counselor in the presidency of the branch San Luis 15 years ago, if I understood it right. And after a while, for one reason or another, he stopped going to church with his family. After yeeeeaaarrrrrsssss of the missionaries knocking on their door and members trying to reach out, Miguel made the decision to come back after speaking with the bishop. We, the missionaries, began to teach Florencia, his daughter, who had no idea who Jesus was let alone how to pray or why. She made amazing progress, and now is the newest member of the Pringles ward. Such a blessing for us to be able to participate in the work of salvation for this wonderful family. Next monday they´ll be going to the temple as a family to do baptisms for the dead with their daughter. METASSSSSSS.

Anyway, a lot of missionaries from our zone have gone to work in other parts of the mission, and today we´ll be receiving all the newbies. We hyped. I’ll be with my wonderful Brazilian Elder Siqueira for another transfer!

Welp, everybody's happy happy happy out here. I’m trying to finish up the New Testament so I can fully focus on reading the Book of Mormon. Still haven’t been able to get my hands on a Come Follow Me yet......*smoke coming out of my ears*.....rrrrrr jaja. Y’all who have the app on your phone best be using it to read Come Follow Me.

Love you all, have a great week.

Quick Update

Hello Family and Friends,

This last week went by super slow not gonna lie, but we’re preparing for a baptism this next week and we’re excited.

Our ward is the largest ward in the mission, and being so large, there are a lot of things that we can do to try and help it grow even more. The trick is getting the members to participate with the work. If you have any ideas for ward activities, shoot me an email.

Lots of great things happened this week. Sacia, the young girl who spoke to us in the street last week who was less active and wanted to return to the church, is going to give a small message in the baptism next week. She's so great, such a miracle for us.

Love you all, have a great week.

Thanks for the package, finally reunited with my beloved hydro:)

Super Quick

Aight, super rapido,

Had a cool miracle Saturday in the afternoon. We were getting ready to head back to casa when a young girl stopped us in the street and told us that she had been baptized about a year ago but had stopped going to church and started making some pretty bad decisions. Anyway, she told us that she felt the need to talk to us so that she could come back to church. Long story short, she was able to come to church with some members that live super close to her, and she totally bore her testimony in sacrament meeting. It was sweet. So cool how God always puts us in just the right place at just the right time.

Love you all so much! Hope you´re enjoying Come Follow Me with the Book of Mormon!!!!
