Week of Crazy Changes

Well this week was pretty fast, and I do not remember most of it to be honest. Well we figured out that this Nestor guy is just an awesome stud who is ready to be baptized, and it is going to happen this Saturday so that is some exciting news. And with Guillermo we will probably need a little more time because this dude has some problems but it is all good, we all have problems. 

So this week we had some interesting situations because we had divisions so I went with Elder Rojas for a day or so and it was fun, but I had to do all the things, so that was interesting. I know the spirit helped me through it all. We have met some pretty interesting people out here during these adventures. A lot of people and a lot of crazy stories. These drunk guys were playing with a tazer and probably wanted to rob us but when they asked us to stop and talk to them we were just like, eh no thanks we gotta go, and we left. So I still havent been robbed or anything so that is awesome. And yesterday we met some more people too that we will probably end up teaching later too. We met this one guy who was drunk in his house and saw me and ran out to speak to me in English, he surprisingly knew a lot of english. His name is Daniel Calle, but he likes to be called Dani Street better, so my boy Dani street ran out of his house to talk some English with me, and wanted to change his life, so we wrote his address down and we surely will visit him soon. 

Today we had an interesting time too. All the missionaries that are leaders had to travel to Salta to have this meeting with the Mission President, so we will see what comes of that, but for two days I just get to go to a different area with Matthew Brady, a dude I met on trek, and some other missionaries that I know, so that will be nice. It has been an interesting time with my companion, I dont really understand his plan for everything or the way he is, but I think we are getting better little by little. I dont know haha. 

But cool, the mission is a pretty crazy thing. After talking with a lot of missionaries, I have come to the conclusion that even though we are here to teach and help all these people, that we receive more help and learn more than anybody else. The mission is really about you and Jesus. I have never been a perfect missionary, and I never will be, and that is ok. Jesus does not ask us to be perfect or to work miracles every day. He just asks us to give what we can and what we are to Him. The gospel is really simple in that sense. And the gospel is what helps us to be more than what we are. By understanding the teachings of Jesus, we learn to be more too. We learn to give what we are and to help the people around us. There is a really nice feeling of peace that this knowledge gives me. I dont know haha. It is just nice. 

Se que Jesucristo es el que nos ayude con los problemas de la vida. Se que no es facil. Tampoco es algo tan dificil, si a veces hay dificultades y a veces no entendemos la voluntad del Señor, pero el siempre nos tiene presente y El siempre esta dispuesto ayudarnos.

Love you guys!!!! Hope you have a wonderful week, and enjoy the snow!!!!! Ah I miss it!!!
