Roof Top Grilling - 12/26/17

Hey Fam, It was great seeing and talking to you yesturday. For sure the best one oput of the three that we have had. Im happy that everyone is doing great and is happy. For me, after the call got done at 1:30am our time... Elder Evans and I waited for a taxi for 30 mintues but not one came... so we had to walk 6 blocks back to the apartment. Today we had P-Day and honestly slept for a good part of it in the afternoon to catch up on sleep. 

Well this week was super fun. There was a christmas party that the 2 branches did here which was really fun. It was super simple, We watched a 5 minute video on the birth of Christ and then a choir sang Away in a manger. THen we just ate barbque and talked to the members. I attatched a photo of the party. Christmas eve we spent with 2 other companionships. President gaev permision for districts to get together and spend christmas eve and christmas together... so we all got together in the apartment of elders Potts and Lundgreen because they live on the 3rd and top floor of their complex which has a roof balcony. SO we cooked the BBQ on the roof and played X-mas music and enjoyed a tranquilo christmas eve... Like I said we also watched ¨Gods Not Dead¨ and ¨Gods Not Dead 2¨ cause they are approved. They were actually a really goood movies. I would recommend them. But I really enjoyed my christmas this year.. a lot better than last years. 

 

It was also fun to spend time with Elder Potts again. I dont know if you remember but I trained him in his first transfer, and it was a really difficult transfer for me. But now a year later... he is a much better missionary and has changed a lot. He is actually a district leader now... 

But anyway, We have a couple people we are teaching here. One is a family that was going toget married and baptised this past week.. but their blood results came back positive and they have a type of blood infection... so they have to get that treated before they can get married. The couple is Jorgelina and Matias. 

The Ortiz Family ffrom reconquista got Baptised Saturday!! Well, Luciana and Antonella got baptised.. Eugenio couldnt get baptised yet because president has to run a couple things over with the church officials of some of his past transgressions(problems with the Pregunta 4 of the baptiosmal interview). So well see what happens in the next couple weeks with that. 

Tomorrow we leave for Resistencia and thursday is out mission leadership conference. So im pretty excited for that and to see some missionaries. But I hope you all have a great week, and a happy newyear! Talk to you sll next week!
