Week 29: The Priesthood And The Chosen

Bom dia y Boa noite 
You might be wondering the significance of that first sentence, well I am learning portugués from my companion hermana Lemos who is from Brazil so I will be coming home from the mission tri lengual 


Anyways...Welcome back to another week! We had a pretty awesome week. Trabajamos un full!!! 

 
On Tuesday night it was my turn to share the scripture in the oración de la mas and I started laughing because Hermana Wilden ( my past companion) her screen was pinned and was listening so intently and smiling so big that when I looked at the screen it was just her face so I started laughing and forgot everything I was going to say :/ 


We invited Adrian Exequiel to be baptized and he accepted with the most enthusiam ever and me and Hermana Lemos deeply believe he is a chosen and that he has been prepared to recieve this gospel for some time and we are the lucky ones to have been able to find him and teach him. God put him in our path and we are truely blessed! He came to church again and literally talked more than the members in sunday school and me and Hermana lemos are over the moon about his progress.
He also ( Adrian Exequiel) has been telling his friend about the church and on saturday we had a call with him his name is Nahuel and he came to church so we have lots of hope!!


Me and hermana Lemos had a proud mom moment jajaja because Luciano recieved the priesthood on sunday me and Hermana Lemos were able to sit in on the blessing and we were so proud of him and happy for him. #futuremissionary 
We had a lesson with him later that day and asked how he felt and he asked Enzo (who came with us and is a member) when he could recieve the melkezick priesthood and me and Hermana lemos are just over the moon for him. 


Lautaro also is going to recieve the priesthood next week!!!!!!!


On Friday we had zone conference and our area seventy, President Christensen came with his wife to speak to us. Not going to lie I was bored jajaja it was a 6 hour conference about how to work with the members ( which is all we do here )  and there was no air conditioning and we were all so hot and just not having it. 


We had bigotes the neighborhood dog follow us around all day but every dog hates him so we ended up being chased by a few dogs and witnessed a dog almost murder another dog so that was fun. 


Also happy Halloween!! People here dont really celebrate but they decorated some of the streets jajaj!  


Thats all for this week! 
Nos vemos
Los amo a todos!!

Whatttttttt i cant believe I am at 17 months ! Monday we did a district Pday in the Mountains. It sounds all nice and dandy but it wasnt. The ride up was twisty and we were in this old bus that tilted off the side of the cliff everytime we turned. We saw a 100 foot tall virgin statue and then a few yards away this minsicule jesus statue that you had to squint to see ( argentinas sure got her priorities straight here ) It was over 100 degrees and dusty. We hiked and ate asado which was the best part. I felt like angelia in the office when I said the music was too loud. On my behalf we couldnt hear eaxh other and had to ScReAm to speak.  Anways we ended up getting stuck in the Mountain because we missed the bus twice but it was fine because we ended up playing Catan i was partnered with elder Heredia and we won. and we drank mate you know theres nothing like sharing the same drink and straw between 8 missionaries as a bonding exercise. we love a good mateada. Tuesday: we we...

Week 22: A Cruel Joke And Lautaros Baptism!!!!!!!

Image
Muy buenos dias bienvenidos a una otra semana!  Bueno this week was good on Monday me and Hermana Braatz wondered into a Catholic Mass where we got really wierd looks. It was a very peaceful experience we also saw some one get shushed by a priest and it was really funny we had to leave before we laughed to loud.  Thursday: our district leaders played a CRUEL joke on us. In the afternoon we waited patiently to recieve a call saying the Lautaro passed his baptism interview and at 4:30 or so we recieved a text from the Elders saying that they needed to talk to us about Lautaro because he failed his interview. We freaked out trying to call them sent texts and they werent responding so we trecked the 40 minute walk to Lautaros house and knocked on his door determined to find out what happened his sister answered and said that he had left because he failed the interview and we asked about what had happened and she told us that he couldnt answer some of the questions  because we...
