IT´S NEVER GOING TO END!!!

MI FAMILIA!

Hey yo! Just real quick, referring to the subject line, I¨m almost
positive that this heat really is NEVER going to end. I´m dying, and
it was hotter today than in like, the past 2 weeks. I´m dying, and
praying for rain. Seriously, I´m dripping with sweat (try not to
imagine it, it´s not a pretty picture) and panting. But, what can you
do ha? Endure...

.... to the End!  Which brings me to my next subject. Merlisa and
Julio were baptized Saturday! And confirmed Sunday! I´m super excited
for them, and now all they have to do is Endure to the End, easier
said then done ha? But I think/hope they can do it. We had a little
bit of a scare Saturday. When Julio came to the church he smelled like
Wine. Bishop smelled it, Mariano (the hermano that was going to baptise
him) smelled it over his cologne. I even smelled a little bit of it. So,
Our awesome Bishop was nice enough to have a ¨interview¨ with him and
see what was going on. He spent about 15 minutes with him, and when
they left all he gave us was a thumbs up. Like, it´s OK he can be
baptised thumbs up. Then, yesterday after the confirmations he was
nice enough to tell us that now he has a purpose to stop drinking and
smoking and that he has stopped. Which, interpreted in my missionary
ears is that he DIDN´T stop when we had stopped by everyday last week
to see how he was doing with drinking and smoking and he told us
that he hadn´t been doing either. Man, I´m just saying I was a
little bit ANGRY. But, all is said and done, and now I'm just praying
that he will be able to stay strong. Man, what a week. But, Merlisa is
awesome. She wants a eternal family and to go to the temple with her
future husband.

Today was a Monday - more exciting then usual... we were able to go to
San Ignacio! It´s about an hour from Posadas and President gave us
permission to go! It was awesome, I have photos but I left the cord in
the pension, (I´m pretty sure once you read this you´ll look up San
Ignacio -> mom, Lisa) so your going to have wait till next week to see
me with those ruins. I bought some pretty cool stuff too, I would have
bought more, but I didn´t think to bring money. My fault I guess. If
I return I´m going to buy more stuff. The vendors there are really
cheap.

I´m tired... and that´s my 2 cents on that note. :)

Kyle, HAPPY 19th BIRTHDAY next Sunday! You better write me and tell me
what you got. Enjoy it, it will be your last at home for almost two
years... weird ha? But I´ll be there, so don´t you worry. 


We have nine missionaries that didn´t come to Argentina last transfer because they
are waiting for their visa, so, we are going to have nine more
missionaries this next transfer... praying that I don´t have to
train... I don´t think I´m ready. vamos a ver.

Well, I have to go. I hope everything is going well for you guys back
at home. I´m excited that at least you had a little bit of snow this
week. I love you all so much, I pray for you all the time. Please be
safe, be smart, don´t be stupid, listen to the spirit, and trust in
the Lord.

Love love Love
