My Christmas sweater |
Hola family,
So let’s
start off with a sorry for not really writing last week. We got too
caught up in p day and played too much and we ended up not really
writing. But, things turned out alright. NO one got hurt and I’m
great!!
so this week
was just a week of learning lessons for me. Learning that life is not
easy and especially when you are on the mission. With all the things that
happen in the mission then you throw some good ole personal stuff on that and
you got for a good week. "Sarcasms” I feel like me and my companion
is getting a long pretty well and maybe too well. So I feel like we just weren’t
that focused this week. Especially with this duty we have of passing out
the cards that we are supposing to. We were really lazy and underachievers
this week. I have spent a lot of time on my knees this week, and don’t
really want to have this week again.
I always
remember a story that happened to me in the temple. I remember when we
were talkin to the president of the temple before the good stuff
happened. He asked a question that really stuck with me. When satan
starts throwing darts fast, hard and a lot of them, and your life starts to get
really hard, what are you going to do in that moment. Especially on your
mission.
i thought to
myself for a couple seconds, and i replied, but not with an answer that a 18
year old kid would say. Most definitely not the answer he was
expecting. I responded “Work Harder." This saying has stayed
in my head ever since April 3, 2014. Sitting in that room with my dad and
another kid that i had never met in my life.
Family, i
want you to know, that i am working my hardest. I remember the words i
said. I feel like it was a little promise I made to myself. I work
harder every day. I promise I am trying to be the best missionary i can
be. I love the work. Sometimes it gets hard. But, that’s when
we need to work harder.
God helped us
to get the son of Anahi to church. But he did not like it. so it
was hard after. Please pray for him so he will have the desires to go
back to church. His name is Alex. he is 13 years old.

spirit. I love you guys. I love all your support and im super excited to
see all of you guys this week for a good Christmas call on eskype. Like
they say in Argentina.
I love you
