HOW GREAT IS IT THAT WE HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO RENEW THESE (BAPTISMAL) COVENANTS EACH AND EVERY SUNDAY WITH PARTAKING THE SACRAMENT!

heloo mom

well, he did get baptized! its about time, six months of a dry spell and i got the chance to see one of Gods children enter the waters of baptism once more! i was jealous of him, he is as close to perfect as one can be in this life. but how great is it that we have the opportunity to renew these convenents each and every sunday with partaking the sacrament! i am so grateful for the opportunities and knowledge i have now! i am a part of Gods plan and help by bringing his children to him once more. o what joy it brings me! all the hard work has payed off! (if you cant tell, i am super pumped jaja) adrian has shared a little with his family but not anything there yet. still working with him. my comp confirmed him a member yesterday. and the ward mission leader baptized him. i was pretty much just his teacher. but he really was ready and learned everything and soaked up knowledge like a sponge. i wish everyone was like him. it would be a lot easier. no new investigators. the shoes fit. i dont know anything about christmas yet. i dont think anyone here has skype capabilities. so i am still trying to figure things out here. i will let you know next week what will go down for sure. well i love you mom! have a great week! chau char!

love elder jones

WE REALLY JUST NEED TO KEEP OUR HEADS HELD HIGH AND STAY OBEDIENT. BLESSINGS COME THROUGH OBEDIENCE. IT'S NOT EASY BUT IT'S WORTH IT FROM WHAT I HAVE SEEN.

hey mom,

well, not much new. no we didnt get to watch the christmas devotional. i dont know anything about me going home yet. that is called trunky talk jaja. mom, you email is very wierd, i cant understand parts. were you tired when you wrote it? jaja. just kidding! love you! well, last night there was a parade in the streets here in toay because boca juniors, a futbol team, sealed their victory in the league here. and everyone was outside in their cars and their motos honking and waving banners and what not. it was crazy. but i liked it. im not sure how we are going to do chrismas call this year. we still have to wait and see.

anyways, from looking over what we have done in the past week, it seems that we focused to much on one person and suffered in all the other stats. He is going to be baptized this week though! we got permission to move his fecha up because he is already converted. he came to church on sunday and loved it. it was awesome. i really think he will be one to get the ward back up and running. he already knows so much. but yeah. we really need to find new investigators. i think we really just need to work on the way we find new people. i honestly think pres detlefsen is awesome. he is always positive and has improved the mission so much. there isnt much else to say. its gonna be sad when he goes home, he finishes two transfers befoer i do. but o well. i am looking forward to seeing more baptisms. we really just need to keep our heads held high and stay obedient. blessings come through obedience. its not easy but its worth it from what i have seen. well mom, i love you.
