$alta Capital

Whats up yall? How have you been? It has been a crazy week haha! We made it up here to Salta, everything all good there! I have never seen an area with so much missionary work potential, it is unreal! And there is actually members here, that was kinda a nice change to be honest!


So I am in Salta Sur, we are in the barrio democracia. Which is, the ghetto. It is honestly a lot scarier than Tucuman haha, never would have guessed it. Our neighbor, Mono, has murdered two people, already robbed the missionaries here, we have had a couple of sticky situations with him haha. It's all good tho, we live right above a member, so he has our back. His name is Nacho, he's so sick haha!

It was an absolutely unreal week missionary work wise, we found an unreal amount of people, and had 19 friends come to church. We have been working so hard. We found a family, which is such a relief cause families don't exist in Concepción, this family has 45 grandkids, they are 60 in total. One of them got baptized 8 years ago, but has been inactive for a while. They have a lot of potential to progress, probably the biggest miracle of the week.

We have been working with a bunch of part member families, and a bunch of them are taking the steps forward to getting baptized. Hype! Our buddy Mckaes is waiting on his mission papers, he was baptized about a year ago. We are working with his family, his mom and grandma are going to get baptized not this Saturday, but the next.

Another miracle was a lady named Evelyn that we found. She found us really. She went to conference, we taught her a bit this week, she came to church, and everything is going super well! She will hopefully get baptized this week!!! Her little Brother John is gonna get baptized the week after! So hype! I am so excited for all the progress going down with our friends!

Our friend Meleni in Concepción got baptized last week! I am so sad I couldnt be there! So proud of her tho!

It has been such a good week! My companion is sick, the work is great, it has been a pretty good change for me! Hope yall are doing well! Take it easy

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...
