Hola
Familia!
So I found out this week that I will be getting transferred to a city called Concordia. I will be training a missionary who has actually been here in Argentina for 6 weeks but his other companion was sick and they spent most of the time not working and stuff so I will be training him His name is Elder P. and they told me he is from Las Vegas but was born in Mexico. I will get to meet him tomorrow but I'm really excited. I will be going as far away from Rosario as possible (7hours in the bus). The truth is when they first told me I was not very happy to be going to that zone and city but I have decided I will just trust in the Lord and trust that He needs me there for a reason. It will be great. I wont even be District Leader, idk what I will do with all the time! haha

It
was kinda nice knowing that I was going to get transferred because I was able to
share my testimony on Sunday and say bye to people throughout the week. It will
be hard to leave this ward, I have gotten really close with a lot of people
here but its just another part of the mission. The hardest part.
This
week we found a lady named M, we were both amazed!! She is going though a
really hard time, single mother without a job. We were able to talk a little
about how the gospel blesses the family and how we showed up just in time to
help her. As we were leaving she had some pictures taped to her front door on
the inside. She pointed and told us how her mom and 2 brothers had died. Then
she looks at us and says (you are not going to believe me) "All I always
wanted was an ETERNAL FAMILY" right after that i just looked at her in the
eyes and said "you will have an eternal family, can we come back tomorrow?"
haha (it gets better!) then she told us how one of her brothers was handicapped
and how he spent his whole life in a wheelchair. She said a month after his
death, she had a dream that he was "Dressed in white, happy, and walking
around without his wheelchair!" we were so happy but we have not been able
to find her since. I think Elder C. will baptize her with his new
companion!
On
Friday we had my last Zone Meeting as a Zone Leader. I gave my training about
sacrifice and how important it is to be able to have a testimony and have
success in missionary work. I was so blessed because we didn't have much time to
prepare and I was able to have my mind very clear to be able to receive the
revelation for our zone. I didn't end up using any of the stuff that was
prepared and it went super well. The spirit just has this way of making
everything better!
It
was a great week I'm sorry i don't have that much to say, I have my mind going
like crazy like always when I get transferred! But I love you guys and I'm super
happy that everyone is doing well. It sounds like the family will be a lot
bigger when I get home, that is really exciting! Have a great week!!!
