December 1, 2014 (week 14 in Argentina)
Please
forgive me if some of these words are a little crappy because I am literally on
the most trucho (low quality) keyboard in the history of man!!
Thanksgiving
was delicious as we made a pudding pie!

| Thanksgiving- pudding pie! |
Pictures are
probably on the blog I keep hearing about.
This week has
been awesome as our investigators, the familia Aguado, have been doing everything
and trying to do to feel the Spirit. The
hard part is that they have some issues with one another, I mean what
couple doesn’t have one, but they seem to be working through their problems as
they apply the Atonement in their relationship. Forgiveness is one of the greatest gifts our Savior
has given us... and speaking of gifts...
I got a
package from my family!!! Happy Hanukah..
er.. Navidad!!! The YMCA sent me an
awesome gift to put on my wall! I used
so much tape today to put it up so I am now ready to start my first Christmas
away from home. LOL… the package was
actually from my awesome family to whom I love very much!!! The peanut butter and dino oatmeal were more
than appreciated!!! LoL! Truly the best
gift to get to start off the month of December!!!

| The package we sent him (mailed from inside Argentina) finally arrives |
 |
| I think he likes all the treats!! |
 |
| Peanut Butter, Dinosaur Oatmeal- his face says it all!! |
 |
| Love how he figures out something to make us laugh at home!! |
 |
| He figures out the saying- each letter was decorated with a message on the back from each of his cousins! |
We have been
focusing now on sharing more messages of Christ and why he was born. We have this awesome video that we watch with
people sometimes on our small dvd player called “El es La Dádiva”; meaning “He
is the Christmas gift”. Of all the gifts
we could have received from our Father in Heaven, he gave us His Son to take upon
all our mistakes and mishaps; truly the greatest gift of all.
We have been
helping other families with their specified needs (which won’t be shared), to
help them overcome their trials and their problems. We are beyond grateful to be the missionaries
to lift them up and fight these battles alongside our brothers and sisters. Truly it has been a fight against evil and the
natural man.
I am proud to
be called a missionary, and to have Christ’s name on my chest every day.
Sincerely,
