Another week bites the dust.

9 months.  

 

Hey mom, you should tell the Primary kids that I hit page 167 this morning. You can do the trash talking for me.  Tell them I´m probably another 20 or 30 pages further when you tell them this week.  Question:  How come nobody told me that Jake Heaps transferred??

 

So... yes we did have the baptism this week!  I´m a definite fan of makeshift fonts.  There´s just something fun about them.  Especially when you have to spend 5 or 6 hours filling it up with a tiny little hose.  Like the other baptisms that we´ve had, I had the pleasure of providing the music.  Who knew that piano music in a branch all depended on the elders that come and go.  Talk about suffering when you don´t have an elder who can play the piano for several months.  It´s kind of funny, but kind of sad at the same time.  Thanks mom, for those ¨many¨ hours of practicing that I did.  Your suffering all those years made it possible that a tiny little branch on the south side of Goya Corrientes, Argentina, doesn´t have to suffer.

 

Well, this week I have to say bye to my Mini.  It´s definitely been an experience living, sleeping, eating, and talking like/with an Argentinean for this past month and a half.  I know Elder Sanchez will be a great future missionary.  The weird thing is knowing that I have a new companion coming.  The question is from where...

 

This week I´ve had my daily dose of General Conference talks.  Not only am I reading the past General Conference edition of the Liahona, but I also read the first part of Mosiah.  King Benjamin tells it like it is.

 

I love you all.
