Hola Familia!
Transfers happened quick... and now they are over. I´m in the Lovely City of Resistencia, Argentina. I know! I´m super excited about it. ´My companion's name is Hermana Arcos. She´s 23 and from Buenos Aires North. She´s learning English. She doesn´t speak it very much... But can understand a lot. We are learning from each other. Also, she´s had 2 more transfers then me.
The view from my apartment... which by the was is Huge! I have my own room to change in... it´s weird
Hermanas de parque. Hermana Quezada y Rojas
Our area is much smaller then mine in Formosa. It was super big, but they split it this week into two areas and put some Elders in that area. SO... Once again, I´m with Elder Garrett. He´s been in my District (so far) for my entire mission. lol :) I think it´s funny. What I don´t like about it though... I have a constant reminder of how much I haven´t learned. Also, my District Leader has one more transfer then I do, and his companion came with me to Argentina. Entonces. We are a young district.
My district... before transfers
There are a lot more contacts here then there are in Formosa, so I´m learning how to knock on doors (clap at doors) and talk to people. It´s kind of fun, and kind of hard. Most of the people say that they are Catholic, to which we reply "we share our message with everybody". We get a lot of finger wavers from the door. And yesterday we received a "I´m not your Hermana!" lol :) It was pretty funny, but, what can you do?
Not much more to report. Today has been fun - we played ping pong, and had Tacos! They were awesome, and tasted just like home - with homemade tortillas. Fantastic. Just what I needed to start a new area.
I love you all and I pray for you guys everyday. Keep up the amazing work. Trust in the Lord. I´m reminded everyday how much he has blessed me. The more I´m here, the more I´m grateful for a family centered in the gospel of Christ, for Temples close by. And for a washer and dryer. :D
Love you all,
Hermana Erin Kaye Griffeth
Keep the Faith
