Wonderful news last week

Hey fam. how are we?
 
Another week here in hermosa senillosa. Things this week werent bad but i dont think they were that much better but i am still happy haha. :) So yes i sent off the letter to ethan. He should get it here in the next week or so.
 
So this week....on tuesday we went on divisions. With Elder Naylor in Plottier. He is my "uncle" on the mish. If you dont understand, ask nate and he can explain to you. It was super sweet. We walked a ton but didnt have alot of success. We taught english classes at a library with like 20 kids. It was super fun. Then on wednesday we played piano at the church and rocked it up waiting for our compaions to return. Then on saturday we met with a little family that is investigating the church. and we put a fecha with them. Veronica, Luis and Pablo. Then a evangelical priest was in town doing a big reuinion and i wanted to go to find some people to teach but my companion wussed out. He is a big deal here in argentina. Then on sunday was sick. let me tell ya what happened sunday. totally changed my perspective on the plan of salvation. We are teaching the youth in our ward the missionary lessons. Lesson 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. Yesterday was lesson 2. It was incredible. I had never understood the plan of salvation so well. The spirit was litterally talking to me. I think i learned more than the youth did. The spirit was super strong. Then we split up and the youth had to teach us. I was with two young women. They kicked trash. I felt like an investigator. I was super impressed. Then they talked about their desires to share this with their friends. It was incredible. Then I met with the ward mission leader for a few minutes. He dropped cane on somethings that we need to do better and i accepted humbly and knew we neeeded to change. He told me "elder, i know you have an incredible future, you have desires to work and keep the rules......just do it. I can see it in you. you want to work. I know your companion is lazy but you gotta set the example" I was super suprised that someone...finally had seen my desires to work in this area and that my comp is lazy. but i felt the spirit super strong. He almost cried. It was amazing.
 
so that was our week. Better in some parts haha. But we keep going with a smile :) Keep strong family!!!!
