Conference week

so this week was alright. kind of nice cause it was conference week. but we actually had pretty good success this week. so that was cool. the biggest let down is no one came to conference. that kind of sucked. but yeah.

so first to answer the questions of conference. we watched all of conference, but priesthood, we watched Sunday morning, cause it started at nine and it was too late. but yeah. but it was good. liked a lot of the talks, mainly the prophet. it's so cool, cause he talks and you can just tell he is a prophet.
kind of made me laugh all the talks had to do with family and marriage....lol... i got the hint.. nah, just playing.. but it was stressful, cause the members weren't so happy and blamed us for everything, they didn't want us watching in english, to the point where they would just make fun of us for watching english.. but it was alright. it was just stressful for them, cause there were a lot of technical difficulties. but my favorite talks were the one by the seventy... who talked about being... and doing... great talk... and Uchtdorft.. was a great talk....

but just to throw something funny. At the end of the Prophet's talk Sunday when he said, he wanted to announce another temple. we all were like Independence, or Jerusalem... it was funny, we all were freaking out. but yeah, it was a great weekend.

but with the people we have been teaching, they are alright, with the families... in most of them, the parents don't really want to change so much. but we are still trying with that. we found this lady called laura, she was way interested.. and we taught her.. so that was cool.

but yeah, aside from that, a pretty normal week. but yeah. i guess i have to say i was thinking about the mission. it's the best thing that i have ever done....and am still doing.. i love it . and i want to thank you all for your support... i love y'all and will see y'all latter.

peace out

Rain and police

hey everybody, hows life....

this week has been interesting mainly cause it was raining since wednesday night. and I'm not the happiest camper in the rain... so it was kind of hard for me but it happens. cant beat mother nature.

but Tuesday we went to necochea for reunion de districto. and it was good but we left early cause we needed to catch our bus. but yeah.

here the work is going good. this last week we didn't find anybody. so that kind of stunk, but like always there are more good stuff than bad stuff. like this last week we worked a lot with menos activos and found and taught some good families, and so we will work with them try to get them to go back to church.... but the fun thing about working with menos activos is that you can always learn about the problems the rama has had, and sometimes why the church has a bad rap. here it's cause there is a family with kids menos activos, but they are all thieves.... like the only ones in loberia. the funny thing is that most nights we get home and there is a cop out side our house. we thought he was protecting us. but then presidente told us that the police would follow the missionaries, and vigilar them (sorry forgot
the word for that). so that's way funny. they weren't protecting us, they were spying on us. the rest of the week me and my comp have been pretending that we had ear phones in our ears, i talk in English when we pass them... but yeah, that's about the highlight of the week.

the rest with the service, it was hard cause the rain, so nobody is in the streets but everyone has cars here. so it's weird.

but yeah, then this sunday was kind of an experience also with the rain we only had like 17 people in total in church. we didn't have any investigators, cause with the rain and mothers day. they didn't commit to it. but my comp directed, i blessed the sacrament, water and bread. and then me and my comp had talks, and then the branch president. so it was fun. but yeah, it's cool cause, like i said last week, i'm learning a lot about how the church is organized and it's way cool to see. but yeah

but right now we have a couple of families that we are teaching. the best ones are called the familia castellano. im sure i spell it wrong but they are a family of 4. well more, but 4 that can be baptized, but they are good. right now we are teaching about the commandments. and they have a fecha for the 30 of october. so that's way cool.

but yeah that was pretty much the week. rain, getting spied on by the police, and mothers day.... so to all moms: happy mothers day.

oh yeah just cause i know my mom will ask me latter, my talk was about temples. but i talked like 5 minutes about moms, and told them your 2 rules. but nobody got it or they are a tough crowd here in loberia. but with my awesomely great charm they will all ask me to talk every week....lol...

but yeah thank u all for the letters, the letters helped a lot. just to here how things are going over there is nice. its kind of always hard to stay focused when u cant see the exito but your letters helped me. so thanks for the love and the support. i will see you latter.

peace out
