hey everyone,
wow so it sounds like we´ve got some pretty big things going on this week back at home. first of all i wanna tell cameron congrats on finishing the mission. be sure to tell him that i love him.
well its been another sweet week for us here in alto san lorenzo. it was really cool cause valeria got baptized on saturday. she asked me to baptize her, which i was really glad to do. for me its always amazing when someone asks me to baptize them. so that was really cool. i´ll have to send you all a picture or 2 sometime. but yeah, she got baptized on saturday and then sunday she got confirmed...now elder livingston and i are trying to find some new people to baptize. we still have 2 baptisms coming up in the next month or so. enzo is getting baptized on the 8th of may and sara (valeria´s mom) is getting baptized on the 22nd. but really we want to keep finding other people. there are really thousands of people in every area that are waiting to hear the gospel. you just have to find them...
what else has been going on this week. i don´t think that i´ve told you alot about my comp, elder livingston. hes really a good guy. id say that the only thing that we are having trouble with is speaking spanish when we´re in the streets. since hes new, he really doesn´t like speaking english when we´re outside of the pension. but i don´t think that you should speak english unless you really need to. since i´ve been in argentina, i´ve really come to believe that you´re only gonna learn the language if you choose to speak it all the time. we can speak english when we´re in the pension, but any other time we should be speaking spanish. we´re working on it though.
i´ve been really having a good time being district leader too. its cool cause elder mclean is in my district, so we´ve gotten way closer in the last couple weeks. its also really cool cause i can go on intercambios with the people in my district, which is way fun. for me its been a really cool learning experience so far. so i´m just trying to enjoy it, learn from it, and become a better missionary.
mom, thanks for giving me the down low on everything that you guys are doing. i hope that you have a good time going to utah tomorrow. be sure to tell dyl and sister bitton that ¨yo mando mis saludos de argentina¨ hahah. but yeah i hope that the wedding is awesome and that you all have a great time. oh yeah and i got the info for the calling card, so thanks alot. It will be sweet hearing all of ya. dad, thanks for the email too. yeah with your smooth talk you´re still the ¨hippest¨ dad i know. but it sounds like everything is going well. i´m excited about hearing more about the lakers. sean told me that they won the first one which is tight. the padres are the padres though. hopefully they can get something together with that team we´ve got and start getting some wins. but i love you, hope that you all drive up safely, and that you enjoy the wedding. sean, che que te puedo decir? es increible que te casas en sabado! no lo puedo creer. pero quiero que sepas que te amo. quiero que disfrutes el sabado y los dias in su luna de miel (yes thats actually what they call it hahah). esta bien que no te voy a escuchar en la semana que viene. pero despues de algunas dias, yo quiero ver las fotos che hahah. paige, i´ll bet that you´re way excited to be going up for the wedding this week. sounds like you´ve only got a couple more weeks of school and then you´re out. thats crazy. work hard and finish strong. bridg, thanks for the email too. i thought that the memory of you and the sandwich was so dang funny hahah. gosh i still tell people about that story here. but thanks for the good laugh. i also heard from your teacher mrs seabrook. be sure to tell her that i say hi, and thanks for writing.
thank you all for your prayers and support. i hope that you all know that i love you. be sure to tell everyone that i know that i love them too. que disfruten el casamiento! be sure to send me some pictures when you can too. i´d really appreciate that. until next week...
