HE SAID WE WILL BE A WARD.

hey mom!

so this week was quite the week. we had our ups and downs, that is for sure. we had zone conference. that was awesome. pres d has been making a lot of changes trying to prepare the mission for when he leaves in june. i told you the new mission pres will be from spain right? this zone conference, pres talked about being focused and not conforming ourselves. if we are not having success its because we arent focused and are conforming ourselves to what other missionaries have said and the fact to what has happened in the past. 1 missionary can make the difference. elder p did get his new comp, elder w. so i officially have my whole district! its awesome. last week i was with a lot of pain in my body and my sinus were going crazy. this week after zone conference, i came home and woke up at 4 in the morning with stomach pains. so i sat in bed all saturday morning and then we went out to work in the afternoon. being district leader is nice i guess. i dont want to be zone leader, they lose too much time worrying about the zone. so i would be fine staying as district leader or back to normal missionary jaja. concerning the visas, the first of january, argentina changed the way they do visas, so that is why it is taking so long for missionaries to get here. 

L didnt come to church. he has been in campo all week working. we havent been able to communicate with him. (i know my spelling isnt the best, the computers are in spanish and they dont tell me what i spell right and wrong.) we didnt find anyone new and we still are lacking solid investigators. but we did set a couple of appointments for today and tomorrow with a bunch of people. so we shall see how it turns out. so all i really am doing right now is trying to lead the district seeing as how i am the oldest now, and just be obedient and find new investigators to increase our teaching pool. not an easy task, but hey. what can we do.

on sunday, elder f came and gave a talk as a representative of the mission presidency. he is pres d´s counselor. he told us in the future we WILL BE A WARD. he said all we need is a miracle. and the way in which we can do it is by helping out the missionaries by giving missionaries references and not worrying about corrupt leaders. he pretty much dropped cane on the members and i loved his talk. so that is all i have mom. i love you. take care. chau!!!

con cariƱo,
elder jones
