What's happening yall

Yall I'm not gonna lie this was kind of a funny week. From a missionary stand point, this week was kind of tough, all of our go to friends cancelled on us and started ghosting us, which was kinda rough, but it's all good.


Started off the week strong with some fresh apostasy from my son Elder Ellis. He gave a district council training on the apocrypha, water fasting, sugar being of the devil, and plastic also being of the devil. If you will remember, he was my Vegan comp.  Kinda sus, our zone leader got up and walked out, it was hilarious though. I have the audio recording of it, email me if you wanna hear it haha. Oh and Elder Gillen the dl got chastised for about 20 minutes by that zl because of it. 

Did some good service at the buddha temple this week, but the aforementioned zl cancelled the saturday service, permanently, i was kinda unstoked about that. Haha idk if yall can tell but this zl is totally getting under my skin recently. It's all good tho I only see him twice a week.

Our friend Olga couldnt meet this week, which was not very cool, but we had an absolutely incredible experience with her. Yesterday was her birthday, and we invited her to a new member meeting, and it was so sick, she made a ton of friends, and felt a ton of peace while she was listening to it. At one point they gave her a birthday shout out, and they said "Olga is not a member yet, but I'm sure she will be getting baptized soon." Me and Austin looked at each other and were like uhhhh but Olga was cool with it haha. The pressure is on, we are hoping to put her on date this week though!

We did exchanges with Elder Frank this week, he's the cool zl, that was so sick. We did a bunch of tracting, found a new person and we are teaching them tonight, it was sick. Also an old guy with a bandana, no shirt, cigarette in mouth, beer bottle in hand opened the door, saw us, didnt say anything, turned around and closed the door. I was trying so hard not to laugh. That was about as far as the success goes for this week though. Elder Frank is from Farmington NM, and so whenever someone asked where we were from we'd just say Farmington haha.

Massive shout out to my son Elder Ellis though. Dude gave an apostate training, got his car taken away for going 100+ mph, and still managed to find 11 new people this week haha. What a beast

Oh and we had zone conferences, that was super sick. But besides that super good week. Yall best be having a good week wherever you are!

Love yourz

Ps zl = zone leader, dl = district leader for you non missionary peoples


                                                                        The best zone in the whole mission


                                                         Super sick McLaren outside of our apartment complex

                                    Weatherford is literally in the middle of nowhere, super sick to head out to the boonies

We made a late night trip to the QT (QuikTrip Convenience) by the apartment, notice how I'm sweating cuz it's still 90 degrees at night.

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...
