Finally There!!!

FAMILY!!!!!!}

 

First off.......I LOVE ARGENTINA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

the people here are so amazing. so like i said. it was like a combine of 65 hours of travel here. we had a plane to go to neuqen and we were 10 minutes away from landing and the volcanic ash made us turn around. so we called our advisor dude and he came and took us to the bus station where we took a 12 hour bus ride to neuqen. it was intense. then we met the A.p´s and the mission president and his wife. they are super sweet. i loved it. i noticed im a kinda guy that doesnt like change and that i am really uncomfortable with change but after its all said and done that its for the good. then i went to an investigators house and then after to knock doors with a elder from uraguay. he was super chill. then just stayed at the a.p´s house with the other elders. its pretty cold here but i´ll get used to it. so i love it here. then i met my awesome trainer Elder newey!!!!!!!!! he is sooooooooooo awesome!!!! he is from pleasant grove. he is the bomb. its so much fun with him. we went tracting on thursday then that night at 10 we had our bus ride for 10 hours down to my area in Trelew. when we got here we went to some members houses. friday we went and taught a couple families. they are capos. (its pronounced k-ah-poh-s it means like they are studds or really cool) then saturday we went to a place called guiman. its like a half an hour bus ride away. i met the branch president there and the ward mission leader. kin chen is his name. they are super cool members here. so much fun with them. sunday we went to church at our ward then we went to guiman for church. then had lunch with familia kin chen. they went and did some tracting. we are splitting that area with the other missionaries in our district. elder raldon and elder cori. they are from mexico and peru. we are the only white guys in our district. after tracting we went to ward council were we are trying to help the branch president with the menos activos miembros. which is the less actives. but he is being a bum and wont let us help. so we are just going to do it on our own. then after that we came back to trelew and visited some ward families and my companion introduced me to some families. they are soooooo sweet. they give up anything for you. i love these people. they families have lots of kids so i am way tight with the kids. we sometimes play soccer in the street with them on the way to appointments. they are always playing in the street. is super legit. i love this area. soo much fun me and my companion have. i´m getting the language down more and more as i listen to the castillano. we also teach english classes on saturdays. its fun to watch people learn english. i really do love it here. the people are so loving to the missionaries. its great.
so sounds like stuff is good back home. looks like hayden wants to get my emails. the actual letters take like a month to get here. and its by pouch mail. its weird. and the same with dearelders. they take forever too. haha. oh well. you´ll be getting emails every monday from now on. the mission is great. the gospel changes lives. its true.

 

Love elder Ross
