WE CAN ALWAYS SAY THAT WE KNOW TWO PEOPLE (THE MISSIONARIES) WHO CAN EXPLAIN BETTER THAN US AND ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS. SO I CHALLENGE YOU TO TO BE MORE VALIANT AND SHARE THE GOSPEL MORE!

hey mom!

bolivar is awesome. super hot and humid, but awesome. elder w is great. he is from texas. and he has the same time in the mission as elder l. so he is a newbie as well. we do get along. here in bolivar, its actually a branch. we dont have a stake over here. its a district. the district is in olavarria and we are about an hour drive from olavarria. so we are trying to get a stake out here. just recently a new branch pres was called, pres c. but, prob best part of my week was having ice cream with the senior missionaries here in bolivar.  they are working in the district of olavarria and they come out here a lot to help out the branch. they took us to ice cream on saturday. elder f was a mission pres in madagascar and was there when madagascar became its own mission, they have served in the south africa temple mission and they have taught english in china. so they are pretty awesome. then they came to church on sunday and elder f gave a talk. he talked on misionary work of course and how the members need to be missionaries as well. he shared the story of david and goliath and how the members need to be valiant like david. his brothers and everyone didnt want to fight goliath but david showed up and said he would, tried to put on the armor but didnt work for him, so he just went out with what he knew how to use. so we need to be the same, valiant and do what we know how to do and just share the gospel, even if it is just a little we share. and we can always say that we know two people (the missionaries) who can explain better than us and answer any questions. so i challenge you to be more valiant and share the gospel more!

anyways, as for investigators, we have a couple. but none came to church yesterday. one is in her 50´s and her daughter is a member. she needs to get married before she can be baptized but hasnt talked with her husband yet. the other is 8, and his mom and brothers are inactive. we are trying with him as well. there are other investigators but we have a lot of work to do in terms of finding newbies. well mom i love you! take care! i hope all is well!
