Howdy!


Family family family!!!!!!!
So we are in this super ghetto ciber (internet cafe) cause the other elders wanted to go here. But we did go to puerto madryn today and it was AWESOME!!!! it took me back home in a memory sense. it was like calfornia, the beach and the ocean. oh it was beautiful!!!! we met a guy that was sailing in his boat. he is from alaska. just sailing away down here in south america. haha. crazy dude. we talked with his wife and she is a quaker. that weird religion. but it was soooo much fun. OH MY GOODNESS!!!! Tell nathan that right now on the radio is playing "buisness of missurie" fom paramore!!!! (sorry, sidenote) but it was so sweet. i will send pics.
But this week was amazing. we met this family of gold!!!!!! Ana, Carlos, Valentino. A mom and her two sons. They have had a rough life but they are amazing. She said our message looks too good to be true. so we put a baptismal date with them!!!! now we are just waiting to meet with them again. their son was crying during the prayer that he offered. it was so sweet. then we met some more people in gaiman. We are in gaiman three times a week now. we almost had a miracle on wednesday. we met a lady that knew the church is true but my companion was talking a little too much and the opportunity to put a baptismal date slipped and we couldnt do it. kinda sad. but we are going to try again. then we met Ester. she is the maid/grandaughter of the mom of a lady in our ward. (yeah lets see if you can figure that one out) haha. but we taught her the plan of salvation. cause her brother passed away a while back. it was a good lesson. on friday we did a fast, cause I wanted to seal my testimony with a miracle. but nothing happend on friday. on saturday. we met with the brother of the bishop and taught him lesson 1 and gave him a book of mormon to read. it was a really good lesson. then we went to the feria (fair?) and had a table and folletos (pamphelts) to give to people. it was sick!!!! i had like 160 contacts that day. then on sunday we did divisions. my companion went to gaiman and i did divisons with a member who is waiting to receive his mission call. I whooped his trash in walking. he was sleeping in some visits with members. we was sooooo tired. hahaha. just physically beat. but to sum up my week. I recieved my answer for my mirace that I wanted. so let me tell you the story.
we had a sweet experience this week, with an investigator named Noelia. We met her through a reference of a member to her daughter Melany. We went and taught lesson one she accepted the invitation to read the folleto and to pray. when we went the next time she said she didnt read. so we taught lesson 2 and put a baptismal date with her. on sunday we did divisions and my companion was in gaiman. earlier in the week on friday we did a fast that we could witness a miracle. But a real miracle, something that i would never forget on my mission. because i had never seen anything big as a miracle on my mission. We didnt see a miracle on friday. but when my comapnion went to gaiman on sunday, noelia told him the following: I was watching tv and i started to cry, why was my life the way it was. so i went and prayed and asked god to please put someone in my life that could change my life. Right after my prayer is when my daughter (melany) came to tell me that the missionaries were at aunt fransiscas house to talk to me"
 she recieved an answer to her prayers. this is the first miracle that happened on my mission. My testimony is sealed. their is nothing that can happen that will change this testimony. What happened, happened. It was a miracle.
