After All We Can Do, His Grace is Sufficient!

Well family, this week was super good!!! Pablo and Claudia got married!!!! and then Pablo got baptized this weekend! Claudia had to go to zapala for this weekend so she will be getting baptized the 22nd!! We are super excited and very greatful for the Lord for giving us this oportunity to work with such great people :) It was a rollercoaster of a week where the devil put a lot of speed bumps in our path but i know that just like it says in the scriptures after we do all we can do for the Lord, His grace is sufficient to help us accomplish our goals. my testimony on that has grown so much this week. I know that through the grace of Christ we can accomplish whatever thing that the Lord wants us to. I have no doubt that this is his work. We are super excited for the coming of President Nelson this week!!! It is going to be such a special visit for our mission! Things are great :) Love you all! have a great week!! And thank you all for the birthday wishes :)

Love,

General Conference & Investigators

Hola Familia!!

whats up?! THis week was amazing!! Our investigators are progressing very well. Pablo and Claudia are doing super well, we went with them this week and we took out a date for them to get married the 5th and they will be getting baptized the 8th :) Im super stoked for them!! Please pray for them so that they can complete with this covenant they are about to make! Hermano Rigoberto Castillo is doing really well as well, we went saturday morning and we watched the first session of conference with him in his house! he loved it!! but he says that he still isnt prpared to be baptized, so we will keep trying to help him and see what it is that he needs to make it!

Conference was absolutely amazing! I hope you all were able to take something out of it to apply in our lives and recieve answers to our prayers and the questions of our hearts. For me the best part was to hear the many testimonies of the Godhead. It was amazing how many testified of God our Eternal Father, His Son Jesus Christ, our Savior and Mediator with the Father and the Holy Ghost, the testater of the two and the comforter for us in this life. I know and have learned that the more we learn about them and their natures we will have more desires to follow them :) What a great conference with such great messages!

Well this week was great! i hope you all have a great week!!

Love,

Blessed in the Work!

Buen Dia!!!

Well... here we go for my sixth transfer here as AP! [He has 3 more transfers left!] I'm staying, and i am super excited because we are getting ready for the visit of President Nelson! I am so greatful for the opportunity that the Lord is giving me to help in this great work. This week was great, it is amazing to see the way that the Lord helps us when we work with diligence and obedience. This week we saw the miracle that this week, we had three diferent members come up to us and tell us we had to go to their house to teach some of their friends! We have been trying to find more people to teach and it was amaizng how the Lord blessed us with the hellp of the members to find some great people to teach. 

Pablo and Claudia are doing great! they came to church again this week! and Nestor who is a member and the brother in law of pablo brought them and it was amazing because he hasnt come in a long time and since ive been here he has been trying to get the faith to pay his tithing, and during church he looked at us and pulled out a tithing slip and payed his tithing!! so it was great to see how he is now reactivating, and pablo and claudia just need to get married and then baptized!

Things are going well! I hope you are all well! Love you all!

Success from Working with Members!

hola familia!

This week was super good! The Melo Family is doing great! They are working on the papers right now to be able to get married, and then on their way to baptism. They are doing great! Also we are working with a mom of a recient convert! Her name is Roxana, and she came to church yesterday with us! She is doing great, her in laws are members as well so they have been coming with us to teach her and she is going great. She said she would like to learn more and eventually get baptized so that she can help her family stay strong, because only her son is a member for now. So we are seeing the success from working with the members, thats for sure! The Lord is blessing us a lot. I love this work. Things are going great!

Also Elder LeBaron is going home tomorrow! so thats weird! But it was a great few months with him. I still dont know who my comp is... so i hope we find out soon! 

Love you all!

Chos Malal!

This week was great here in Chos Malal! We are continuing to see the Lord work in marvelous ways. I love this work! This week we met a man named Roman, we met him on tuesday and talk with him a little about the Restoration. He loved it! We them went back a couple days later to see how he was doing and he was sitting outside reading the folleta!! It was so cool! He was really excited about it, because he said that he has been to a million churches and they all have ¨problems¨and he said he wanted to come to our church to see if it had problems as well. Hahah! And he came sunday!! After the meeting he said he loved it, and he would like to start learning more about it to see if it is something that he would like to join! It was a really cool miracles that we saw this week :) also Norma and Jessica are bothing getting their papers for marrige filled out with their ¨husbands¨and we plan to have their baptism in a couple of weeks! They are progressing well! Things are great here in Chos Malal :)

Funny thing this week.... but not so funny. We decided to do a Group activity saturday night for Easter, us misionarys got it all set up and everything, we should up at 630 when it started... and nobody was there. But we thought öh its ok, argentines are always late. Nope. not this time. Nobody came!!! It was so sad. But then one of the other elders investigadores walked past and we hurried and stopped her and had a lesson with her, so at least we got something out of it. haha!

Things are great! I love it here :) I hope you all have a great week! Love you all!

Love,
