Hey Fam...

 

 I don’t have much to say.. Just the lord is just blessing us out the wazzuuu... We are trying our best to be super obedient and loving everyone we come in contact! On the 24 of October we have 2 baptisms and on the 31 we have 3 so please pray!

 

We have a pareja, a couple that’s not married, that has stop having sex stopped drinking stopped doing everything bad, started to repent and they will get married before the 31 and they will be baptized on the 31°° its awesome... we saw him on the street one day and he told us, Hey elders, I’m not going to have sex anymore. And my gf is going to stop drinking!!!! haah they will defiantly get baptized.  Then we have a miracle of Claudio that just came to our area that has been getting prepared and he will be baptized on the 24 with Enrique.  please pray for them that they can feel the spirit and accept to be baptized!!! :)

 

Its awesome!! I love you guys!! kill it this week!! :)

 

Elder Wessel :)

they are just doing soooo well! im so happy for them! the investigators
are keeping the commitments, they all came to church and they all left were
edified by the spirit! im so grateful for all of them... Im super happy to
be here.  Im here with two members, Lorena and Pablo, they are both served
missions and are my favorite members here. Im so grateful for all the
things they did. They brought an investigator named Raul and his son Walter
to the church. he was so spirit filled after the conference that he couldn’t
even express himself. He gets baptized now this same month. There was
another guy with his wife, named Maxi and Noelia,  they came and they have
just seen miracles in their lives.  And maxi had to leave right after
conference ended and he told his wife to tell me,  (i know for a fact that
i will be baptized on the 31.) the prophets spoke to him!

Conference was great" the investigators are awesome!! God loves us! one
thing that really stood out to me was the talk of the Prophet.  He told us
to keep  the commandments.  He was so driven that he lost strength.  But he
could have back down, and left but he did what a man of God would do.  he
stood strong, bore the testimony most strong that i have ever heard in my
life and told us to repent. And be obedient.  I know that Thomas s. Monson
is a prophet of God! I know he has been called along with all the Apostles!!
I love the gospel! BE OBEDIENT TO THE COMMANDMENTS; REPENT!!!

I loove you guys!

Elder Wessel :) love you guys!!!

Whatss up family??

So this week was a blur... We had 3 white washes in our zone.... That is when they take out both missionaries from their area and put in two new ones.. and they don’t know anything about the area... so we had a whole lot of time out side of our area getting to know a ton of stuff!! haha but... we didn’t even work in our area... only Wednesday, and Saturday and Sunday! it was kind of crappy! but we are helping the zone.. and God blessed us, he prepared the ward and blessed us with walter.. even tho we prepared him last week, we were only able to visit him two times this week and it was super scary.. but things went well and he was baptized and received the Holy Ghost!! so that was awesome! Seriously God is blessing us.. last week we had 8 people in church, this week again, we had 8 people in church!! investigators are flocking to the fonts! God is showing his hand and manifesting himself to all!! :) its awesome!

I really don’t have many words to say.. we didn’t really get to see that much stuff, we also had to travel to neuquen for leaders council . that was pretty cool! we got some new rules... we are going to have another zone training tonight again.. haha but we are super pumped! now, really im just super grateful and nothing else man! i know god lives.  He is blessing us.  But the greatest thing about it all is that the investigators and staying active and they have a ton of friends in the church!! i love it!!

I want to remind you guys about patience.  God loves us. We need to wait on him.  Give him time to bless us.  We work hard in patience, wait patiently on him. Pray as if all depended on him and this will work out. Even if the blessing comes immediately, tomorrow, next week, next year or after we die, we will get the blessings... its a promise!! patience real is a virtue! haha i love you guys! i love god. i love the mission work!

love Elder Wessel

whats up family,

This week was super fetching crazy!!! So like you guys know the Sunday was crazy we had a solid 6 investigators in church and some of those
investigators just came up to us and asked us if they could get baptized.

So that is what we did! the whole week we worked hard to bless the lives of
the ward and baptize makarena! she was baptized on Saturday and then her brother will be baptized this Saturday and then they invited more nephews and nieces and uncles and aunts to be baptized... things are so fetching crazy we are going to be the biggest tools in the lords hands this week!! im so happy for how the lord has blessed us!! :) its awesome!! :)

This week my comp left.  I have a new comp named Elder Moody from Draper!! He is super cool! and we already get a long great!! I love working in the work of the Lord! We are super blessed because we are trying to be obedient and trying our best to glorify our GOD!

The zone training was spectacular! we talked about how enoch was scared
when the lord called upon him to preach to his people.  IN Moses 6:31 he
talks and says, but god, every body hates me, im just a young lad and i
cant do anything.  With his fear and his humility, he translated not only
himself but also his city! so we talked about that and our zone Got super
pumped! Our numbers got raised up this week so we did see a little
difference in the attitude and the fear of the missionaries is going away!!
My zone is the greatest ever!!! I love all those missionaries with all my
heart!!! :)  man, God is great!!

I hope I can contaminate all of bariloche with happiness that the gospel
brings me!! I love you guys!! but I do love the gospel and what God is
doing for me! Im so happy to be serving him and being a small tool in his
hand!! I love it!!

CHRIST LIVES; GOD LIVES:  Thanks to them, we can work miracles!!!

Elder Wessel

September 14

Well this week was surely nothing to special!! we worked our butts off like
always but miracles are so normal now that i dont know which one to write
you guys!! haha but family just know i have a testimony of the lord and
savior jesus christ and i know god lives.  With all my heart i will glorify
him and that is was i am doing!!

We made invitations this week so people will start coming to church.. we
ahve been struggling with that, but now since we have been trying supe hard
for that to work god blessed us! we had a less active member come, with her
daughter that isnt baptized, her grandaughter that isnt baptized and
another girl that is aless active.  They came up to us and asked if we
could baptize them! it was a miracle and an answer to our prayers.  im
super happy for that! we also had 3 other investigators in church and now,
we will start baptizing all of them in these weeks!! im super happy and
super glad to be a worthless tool in the hands of god! i know he blesses me
and i know he is using me now!! i love the zone im working with.

We are worried about the zone because they are scared.  They dont have
courage and are very timid! we called a speciall zone meeting for this
night.  We are going to talk about how to be missionaries who testify with
out fear and challenge and how to teach effectivily so we start baptizing
as a zone!! im super pumped, planning i felt the spirit testify that the
lord is pleased with this decision and we are super pumped to transmit our
excitement to the zone! please pray that we will be able to get rowdy wiht
them and they will leave edified from the meeting!

I love yo guys with all my heart!! keep up the work of salvation!! i am
trying!!

elder Wessel

Holy moly we don’t have guacamole!

Whats up family?

Things are super good! haha I’m super happy and we are busy! so things are super good! we had the opportunity to have a 70 of area come to our mission this week and it was super rad! So we had Elder Texeira come.. no dad its not Mr. Texeira from the yanks.. hah I was just as depressed as you are now! haha But he came and we learned a ton.  Usually in our mission the reason we are successful here is because we are teaching a whole lot.  He made that known to us and showed us how we could teach more and that it is more productive if we teach rather than just baptize.

We I’ve been doing I promise! we teach.. but I guess my teaching skills weren’t where they needed to be! So I was super happy to learn that! In the mission we were teaching like 5 to 7 lessons a week! after that we went and taught 10 lessons in 3 days, and set 6 baptism dates! really inspired me to become a whole lot better! Like Helaman says in chap 16 if it happened in a land far away, or in a time far away why cant it happen now? so what we did is worked hard! we are going to baptize thousands like Ammon did!! Im super excited! A little bit of what I learned is that I need to love a little bit more to the people! I need to show that really I am here to help them! SO that is my goal this week! Is learn how to love more because we need to become like christ if we want to do what he did! That is simple right?? haha

 We had some cool things happen to us! we actually were walking and my comp and I decided that we are going to talk to everyone in the street, so we did.  We saw a lady and her kid, outside of their house.  We cant enter house of women alone so we stayed outside her house.  We talked to her and she told us that she had been thinking about getting baptized that morning but has some problems to fix.  ONE of them is smoking.  So the first lesson we taught was the word of wisdom them we asked her if we could do a prayer, and we did a prayer, and then taught faith, repentance, baptism by water and by fire, yea, even the holy ghost! She accepted to be baptized and loved everything we told her! She is using the book of Mormon to stop the need of smoking! She is super prepared!! Imagine my week if that is one of the 6 people that we found! things are great!

love you guys!! keep it smooth back at home!!

love you elder Wessel

Just another week

Baptism of Cirilo Pereyra

Hola family,

Whats happenin?  things are super radical here and I'm enjoying the heck out of the mission.

Seriously, im sorry I suck at using time on the computer now.  I never have time! haha  But I love you homies!

Just chillin in my area

This week was crazy.  The baptism of Cirilo is the first baptism in this ward since 1 year ago and a little more.  People were so happy. I didn’t take a picture but he whole ward showed up! they were hugging and crying and loving and everyone brought food and everything! it was incredible! i was so impressed. Huge change from villa la angostura! haha but seriously, I’ve never seen someone so happy in my entire life.  HE went and bought a suit and wore his suit to the baptism, then he got baptized.  He got redressed and then came back in to the sacrament room and just smiled. the smile never left his face! it was incredible how happy he was.  He said I know my wife is happy with the decision
I have made, my mom too.  Now I will be an example for my children and my grandchildren.  He is incredible family. Seriously to see his face made me feel a joy that I have never felt before! I'm so happy for this gospel.  SERIOUSLY!! GO PREACH TO EVERYONE!!!!

This is my work and my glory. To bring to pass the immortality and eternal life of man!! FAAA I love it! Im participating in that every day!!! hahah I just want to scream and shout that is how happy I am in the work!! I want to tell every one that!!!

We had to do a ton of exchanges this week with missionaries to help them so they could baptize this week! we found a ton of investigators.  But the fruits were only 2 baptism this week.  At least God blessed us to be the example so the zone gets pumped!! we have set some crazy goals! GO BIG OR GO HOME!! God blessed Ammon and Amuleck,and Alma and Aaron with thousands of people to baptize.  Why wouldn’t he do it now??? haha Heck ya its incredible this work of the Lord!" I hope you guys understand, that God loves his children!! I will boast of that to everyone! God exists and will bless his children according to their desires!!  We will see fruits!!

love you family!! Keep it real and help the Lord in his work!!

I mustache you a question

A seventy of South America is coming this week!! its going to be cool! he has asked to interview us(my companion and I)! we will see how that goes!!

Elder Wessel

Hola Family,
     So things are super good right now! we are super happy and yes... I’ve been transferred to barliloche.. ;) wahoooooo
     Ive been called as a zone leader to watch over my old area of Lago Peblo as well so i will be able to return and visit all the people I met down there!"! I’m super happy! I’m super pumped and super humbled to have the opportunity.
     The transfer was not expected.. I was thinking that my comp was going to leave because he has been there for a lot time.. but the presidente had a different vision! so we are going hard to work now!! I’ve got a Chilean as a comp now! His name is Elder Castillo! Castillo means cattle! haha we will be working hard to help the Bariloche Zone!!  (Bady-loche) that is was it sounds like.  so say it like that!! haha but we are super pumped to be working together.
Um.. there is not much to write this week... my last week in villa we had a great time.  we worked hard and got them a lot of investigators and got villa super prepared.  We found two families that are now preparing to get baptized and so I was kind of super upset that I had to leave.  that is my goal in the mission is to baptize a family!! to help a family take the first step to eternal life!!

But other than that... Im in bariloche.. happy. ready to work!! love you guys!!!
Elder Wessel

its not the sound of music but its close

 So this week was a little bit loco.  We went up to a huge ski resort and had a blast!! We rode the ski lift and then we sledded up on top.. We aren't aloud to ski or snowboard... we went with a member that is super cool. And he talks English! We are going to come back and start a restaurant when I finish my mission... jaja

But Tuesday was a hard and so was Wednesday!! We are teaching but things are progressing.  We are working super hard and its frustrating because we aren't seeing results... This week again we invited everyone we saw to church.  We made invitations with our address and everything and stopped every person on the street.  We have been sharing the restoration with everyone.. I've never said the first vision so much! It's awesome... I'm loving the missino right now. I'm testifying and challenging people to come unto Christ.. But they wont do it..  

Thursday we were in San Martin.. We traveled two hours to our zone conference with president and there I had a confirmation that Jesus is the Christ. They asked me how I baptize, and was able to share my testimony of the living God and his living son.  I noticed as I shared my testimony the spirit bore witness to me as well! It was a great and relaxing feeling.  

We then worked super hard and put everything we had Friday and Saturday.. But I still feel like we could have done more! But it we are trying.  God is trying us a lot right now and we need to prevail.  This week we have ahead of us will be the week!! We are going to find the people!

I don't really have much to say.. I'm sorry! I know god lives. I know his son is Jesus Christ.  They have bodies.  I know the book of Mormon is true, and I know with a complete certainty that JOSEPH SMITH was and is and forever will be the prophet of this dispensation.

 

providing service, look out Caroline

Love you people!
