Just another week in the ghetto

What's up everyone?


This has definitely been an interesting week out here in the DFW. To be honest as far as missionary work goes, Avondale is super slow and super frustrating haha. Especially with how limited we are able to contact people, we are pretty much just limited to doing service for people, which is awesome.

On Saturday we gotta do some service for a family that has like 300 acres, a super sick lake and the whole 9 yards. Honestly a dream property if I were a little bit more yee-haw, but I miss my mountains way too much to ever live out here. Anyways I caught a couple of fish there, super small but still caught them, while I was cleaning the lake lol. 

Ended up in downtown Fort Worth today, we went and played some top golf with a couple of the other zones around here. Super sick to meet a bunch of the other elders. Currently am sitting in some shrimp restaurant, we will see how good this ends up being haha.

The big news this week, we got 4 baptismal dates. Haha just kidding we have 0 investigators but transfers are coming up. The apartment is picking up another body, elder Morris and he's joining me and Thurgood for a trio. So we will be changing the series to mission quint drama. There's also a new elder in the district, Elder Madsen, supposedly he's from Farmington UT but I dont recognize the name so let's see how this goes.

My comp continues to be a drama queen haha. If I had to describe him, he is Laman and Lemuel because the only time he isn't complaining is when we are going somewhere that the sisters will be haha it's annoying. He's basically a 20 year old that can't take no for an answer and still says "that ain't it chief" and "fuuuu". Haha all differences aside I have set all our differences aside and definitely began to be more christlike in dealing with him, so we are getting along better, hopefully Morris will help as well.

We had front row seats to a crime the other day. We went out onto our porch and there was like 20 police vehicles, ambulances, firetrucks and the such. We saw a destroyed bike in the middle of the street but they never pulled out a body. We saw them all congregate in an alley that we also had a perfect view of, so we think the guy that got hit ran away. Pretty sick night tbh.

Anyways I hope yall had a good week.

Love yourz

Elder Larson

You know I am getting tired of writing up these weeklies haha, but you know i havent missed a weekly in 2 years so imma stick with it haha. Hope yall have been thriving back home and in your missions! Been a good week. The most exciting thing was seeing all of our hard work over the past couple months fall into place, we were able to put 4 baptismal dates for this week, they are pretty solid as well! We need your prayers for Alumine, Jose, Veronica, and Maximo, so that everything goes good for their baps this week!! I am very grateful for all the trials and bumps along the way, it definitely hasnt been easy this week, it wont be easy till I finish the mission, but I have learned to love to work hard. Even when I dont see the results that I want, I love laying down at the end of a long day and saying I did everything that I could have. I love something Pres. Palmieri said yesterday, we dont measure missionary success by the number of baptisms, but by the number of people we invite to co...

Whats up everybodyy? How yall been? Hope yall had a peachy keen week! Its been a good week here in Independencia, just kinda vibing haha, working hard, enjoying my time in Argentina! We've been walking around all week, its been a vibe, probably walked like 30 kilometros haha. It was good, we saw a bunch of success, found some solid people.  Had some exchanges with the boys in San Ignacio, that was fun. My boy elder Lewis was dying haha, so we had to go save him from his comp. Had some fun lessons, I ran the joke that I was from Chile the whole time and got away with it. My spanish is evolving to a whole other level. Had the baptism of Carlos this week! It was such a sweet experience! He is a capo, so glad I got to meet him and his fam. Literally no one showed up to the baptism, but that happens haha. The water was freezing cold bro, winter sucks here. I'm happy to be here. Very sad that everything is gonna be coming to a wrap here in a few weeks. As hard as it was, I have learn...

Sup yall? How have yall been doin? Hope that all is going well wherever yall be at! Been a good week, just been vibing out here, working really hard, being obedient and stuff yall already know. Did some exchanges with the boys in Joaquin V Gonzalez, which is a 5 hour bus ride. Muito bom. It was sick, its a tiny town in the middle of nowhere. such sick vibes. It was so chill out there. Thats where you go to catch the Golden Dorado for all yall fishermen out there. Good exchanges tho, really had me remeniscing on my time in Concepcion, I miss those small town vibes. We also had a talent show activity, and we dressed up as vaqueros(argentinian cowboys) and sang "Adios Amor" which is a sad mariache song, it was so sick Ive been vibing a lot with the poncho recently, cuz its been cold. I really rock with the poncho mate mix, way hype. I have been loving the vibes up here recently. Its been tough with our friends they all are really uncommitted to do anything, but you know it happe...
