Happy late 4th of July!

Sup mi Familia!

 

Happy (very late) 4th of July!  First, our awesome new (Chilean) district leader was totally willing to sing the 

Star Spangled Banner in broken English... it was strangely awesome. He´s strangely attached to English, so he didn´t have a problem at all. Ha ha. :) We were able to celebrate it in our own little missionary way.... kind of. :)  We dressed up in red, white and Blue - as you can clearly tell from the photos. We were a little excited. We made patriotic pancakes for breakfast, and ended the night with some north American Burgers. and Fries. :) They were super good. Totally worth it. GOD BLESS AMERICA! Booya!!

 

Victoria, our 8 year old wonder, is being baptised this week! On Saturday, and then we have two AWESOME chicas next week - Maria and Silvana!  I'm so excited for them, and they are so excited. They are awesome. so excited to learn. and when we gave them their own Book of Mormon, they held it in their hands like we had just given them a home made doll. It was so GREAT to see that!

 

We traveled to Resistencia last Friday. We left at 2am to get there at 8am and It took about five hours to renew my visa so I can stay in the country for six more months... basically four now. Then we left for the bus terminal at like 2pm so we could take the 3pm bus. But all the seats were sold out, so we had to wait until 5pm... and the terminal was COLD! Three hours sitting there in the cold was not my ideal time. Anyway, we got back by 10:30pm.. and slept. It was a long day....  

 

Sorry fam, this email is super short. We didn´t do much more this week.

 

Love you all so much, and I´m so grateful for your letters every week that give me a giant boost for the rest of the week. I love this gospel and this work with all of my heart. I´ve almost hit 14 months and I´m so sad that it is ending so fast. I just have to work even harder now. :) 

Be smart, be Safe, Trust in the lord.

 

I love YOU ALL!
