Called To Serve: 16 Months

This year for Christmas it feels weird to think that this is the last one in the mission. wow. I love this area and the mission and even though its a holiday and i miss the familiy i feel great here and know i am at right where i need to be at! The mission is the best experience ever haha its just like the movie the best two years hahaha. THanks for sending the friends a christmas card, matias and gaby got theirs. THe driveway to the house looks great. I really miss your home made cooking, stuffed peppers and enchiladas chicken rollups and cordonbleu and all the good things you cooked, no one cooks the same here, bread and pasta and more bread here hahaha. na there is a family that give us so much good food and always makes sure us 4 missionaries in the ward are all taken care of. the familia Galeano are the best! so awesome! theyre funny too, the lady was a hardcore evangelica at first and converted to the gospel of Jesus Christ and they are super awesome. tomrrow i get to go to belgrano (rich town) to get my nail taken out haha fun fun! awesome.

We are planning a baptism this weekend and 2 or 3 more on the 27th, we are hoping and waiting for maricles to be able to meet the goal of 2000 baptisms in the mission for the year 2014! I am so excited to be apart of it all! VAMOS BUENOS AIRES NORTE! anyways i hope you have a good week this week and enjoy work! thanks for the money and the prayers and all the unrcognized things you and dad and brothers and grandma and grandpa and the other people do for me! I sent this to matias for his wedding anniversary video hes going to do: "los matrimonios y familias que logran a tener éxito en el fin de todo son los matrimonios y familias selladas en el Santo Templo del Señor. "Marriages and friends are forever" "El que quiere lograr la vida eterna se casará; o mas bien el que se casa por la eternidad en el Santo templo del Señor tendrá la opurtunidad de tener la vida eterna." I thought about that for a minute but its totally made up as if i were writing scriptures haha in other words dont take it as doctorine.hahaha annnnnnnnyways i hope you have a superduper happy anniversary! Tell the fam i said HI!" He and his family are so awesome! anyways mom and dad look what i made for dinner, egg with cabbage and Aji pepper and salt with a dash of love haha
