Monday April 30, 2012











Hola Familia!!!!!
 
how are you all doing!!?? I am just hunky dory like always and i hope you
are all doing well too. like we already knew transfers came today and Elder
Calle is going to Huaral. eventhough it wasnt always smooth sailing we had
some good times, and i will miss him. but on the bright side my prayers
were answered because my new companion is someone i already know. his name
is Elder Morel From Argentina. so once again a new companion from a new
country. i am now only missing Paraquay, Uruguay, and Chile and i will have
had a companion from every country. at least once i get the opportunity to
travel the world i will have a house in every south american country.
 
i have already had the chance to work with elder morel once before and he
is a hard worker. i am very excited to have him as my companion. as you
were talking about time flying dad i was thinking the same thing. i have 9
months left we are in single digets. that means that i probably have 2
other companions apart from Elder Morel and maybe one more area. ahhhhhh
where has my mission gone?!?!
 
yes we had to change appartments and the lord really blessed us in that
aspect of the week. we recieved a call from the assistants monday night and
they told us that before the week was done we needed to have a new
appartment. well as i am sure you can guess. appartments dont exactly grow
on trees here. we started looking and by tuesday we had a member family
offer us their house . . . let me repeat that. . . . their HOUSE. we were
looking for a small run down appartment and in the end we finished with a
house. thus the pictures. the family is very young but very willing to
sacrifice for us. they are going to put on a second floor on where we are
living right now and there they will live. but i was amazed at how willing
they were to pick up their family and move once the lord called.
 
the internet is actually working this week and i was able to attach
pictures. i thought you would like the raiders jacket dad.
 
well fam it is off to say goodbye and pack some bags. remember that i love
you and i am still working as hard as i can.
