Week 28~

Well this week was super great! I am always remembering the motto that Elder Saez taught me, ``Patience and Love, Elder, Patience and Love`.. So it has been a good week! We have been working our butts off and seen lots of results. The mission is not about numbers, but I am pretty sure we had the best numbers in the zone and from week to week we are progressing a ton, so that has been great! We found a bunch of new investigators this week and are teaching this one couple that is so awesome! We went and visited them on saturday and had one of the most spiritual lessons I have had on the mission. It was a little birthday miracle. They are reading the Book of Mormon and praying to know if it is true and they are already feeling the spirit every time we come and I have no doubt that they will be baptized in the next month! Interesting note about the area I am in.. there hasn't been a baptism here in like a year or two.. Which honestly doesn't scare me or affect me at all. I know there are people being prepared for us in every area, all we have to do as missionaries is do our part and be obedient and good things will come. I truly believe that If I do all that I can the baptisms will come! And we are already seeing the truth of that here! For my birthday in the night we went to the Yufra Family`s house and they had made a cake for me and it had this sparkler candle in it so that was sweet! They are a super awesome family that is always helping the missionaries and I am already super tight with them! Alejandro just got back from his mission in Sau Paulo and he gave me a tie as a present so that was super nice. A little more about Elder Hokanson: He is from Ogden Utah, he has about 18 months in the mission,he is an awesome companion.. He cooks super well and is super chill and patient with me so I am grateful for him. He is also my district leader!We live in an apartment house thing with two floors and our zone leaders live above us! Elder Holloway from Meridian Idaho and Elder Esteban from Bahia Blanca Argentina! SO the four of us get to hang out and see each other a lot and cook good food sunday nights so its been fun!

Venado tuerto is really growing on me and I am starting to love it as well as the branch here! There is a huge grocery store here which is sweet! As opposed to basically a gas station convenience store was the only thing we had in Feliciano so I can actually buy food now! But I am really happy and doing great! I know that I am serving my Heavenly Father in the best way I can! I have truly come to love my Heavenly Father and have the desire to do His will, sometimes it is hard, but I know that through diligent prayer and a sincere desire to change I can do all that He asks of me! Love you guys a ton and am grateful for you! Les quiero muchismo! Hasta la proxima semana!
