¡FELIZ NAVIDAD!

Dear Family and Friends, Merry Christmas!  I can’t believe that it’s already Christmas time again!  This year has passed by super fast!  And Christmas has snuck up on me!  Here in Argentina, they’re just barely starting to decorate their houses!  And by decorate I mean put up a tree.  But it’s all right because I…

Reliving the Prodigal Son!

  Dear Family and Friends! I hope that you’ve all had a wonderfully splendid week!  I hope that it’s cold there, because if I’m cold during the summer here, you better be cold in the winter!  It started to snow a little bit in El Calafate this week!  That’s crazy!  The weather here in general…

18 Days till Christmas

Dear Family and Friends! This week has been a good week.  I can’t complain too much:)  It’s been hot, but only like 70° which is still really hot for me but in the northern part of my mission it’s probably getting close to 100°:) We’ve just been doing missionary work!  The gospel is rolling forth!…

What a Week!

Dear Family and Friends! This week was a complete change from the week before.  The week before we found ourselves walking a ton and not accomplishing hardly anything.  This week we were running late quite a few times trying to get between lessons.  That made things a lot more enjoyable.:) Also, the week before, it…

Happy Thankgiving!

Dear Family and Friends! According to my distant memories from home, this Thursday should be Thanksgiving!  If not, the title for this week is going to be really embarrasing! This week has been a lot of walking.  I don’t know what happened, but we couldn’t find anybody this week.  It didn’t matter if we passed…

Christmas in Calafate!

  Dear Family and Friends! I’ve officially put up the Christmas decorations in my pension, I couldn’t wait anymore! I’ve been waiting for the transfer to see if I was going to be staying or going, but it turns out I’m staying for Christmas, so out came the decorations! I don’t know what President thinks…

What a week!

  Dear Family and Friends! This week has been fantastic!  We’ve seeing a lot of miracles here in Calafate!  I think that the biggest one was that we found 9 new investigators this week!  (here in the Argentina Comodoro Rivadavia mission, that is an accomplishment! Normally our goal is 3, and we’re lucky if we…

A Windy Week!

Dear Family and Friends! To be completely honest I had forgotten what Patagonia summer winds were like, but mother Nature kindly reminded me this week!  Holy cow!  I feel like I’m in a hurricane 100% of the time! We learned an important lesson about God’s timing this week.  We have an investigator that is golden,…

Priesthood Blessings!

Dear Family and Friends! This week has been crazy!  We had hot weather where I wanted to just die and was sweating up a storm (I think it was about 70°:)) and it snowed!  So that was weird.  And then Tuesday afternoon we had to travel to Rio Gallegos for interviews with President Rogers on…

A Valuable Experience

Dear Family and Friends, How’s life going?  Things are pretty good down here! Calafate is super beautiful, and now the the Patagonia winds are starting! So I spent a lot of time writing my mission president today, and as I was doing so, I decided to share the experience that I shared with him with…
