Yall pinch me please

This week has honestly felt like a dream.  Its been crazy tryna throw everything together here at the end of the transfer haha, it was a nightmare. Honestly kinda a tough week, our companionship couldnt catch a break.


Our friend william ghosted us all week, so we didnt get his interview done prior to the baptism, so we had to push it back. He hit us up the day of the baptism and said he was too busy, that was really frustrating but we will hopefully get him back on date.

Transfers are this week, and I am gonna be training again haha. Well actually Elder Quinlan is leaving us, so Im gonna finish up Elder Beckstrands training. Itll be tough cuz the ward loves quin, but itll be good. Gonna put my spanish to the test for sure. 

Tuesday was actually hype. We taught a lady named Pazita, who quin randomly called last week. We taught her the first part of the restoration, and as we were about to teach the gospel blesses individuals and families, her phone rang and she found out her mother was dying. Kinda awkward, but kinda a miracle that we were there in that moment to let her know that this didn't have to be the last time that she saw her mom. The spirit was so strong in that lesson yall. It was way sick.

Our english classes were popping off, it was way hype. We had like 9 people on thursday, which was like crazy successful, we hadnt had much success since I got here. Its way more fun when we have a lot of people.

We did a pretty dope service, and I actually almost died hahaha. Mom dont read this. We were doing service at a nature preserve, and they have copperheads (dangerous snakes) there. So we finished the service, and me and bowler were looking for copperheads, and I turned around and not even 3 feet from my feet was a 2 or 3 foot copperhead. They are sneaky and they blend in so well. Fortunately I escaped unscathed. Grabbed some cool pics tho.

The saving grace of the week was that I got a call from President Chapman Sunday morning, and I am going to Argentina on the 4th of November!!! I was so hyped haha, I remember seeing my friends getting this call like a year ago, I never thought this day would come. I was beyond stoked if you couldnt already tell. Itll be so hype. Im gonna be seeing mountains in 3.5 weeks haha lets go. Its gonna be hard to say goodbye to the Fort Worth mission for sure. Good memories here.

Anyways this is way too long if yall read this all you are a champ. Love yall, and those missionaries out there remember that missions arent supposed to be easy, but they will be worth it. 

Love yourz.

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...
