Dear Everyone,
So I am on my way to Bahìa Blanca again. No one has written me yet because it`s way early but that`s no big deal.
Cool things that happened this week were that Agustìn, our convert, went and bought a suit for church. He is now a deacon and so he, and another 13 year old that the other missionaries baptized, served the sacrament. It was the first time I have seen deacons pass the sacrament here in Argentina. It was fantastic! Both of them had their white shirts and ties.
Also, it was testimony meeting. And there were 85 people there! And Oscar Llaupi that got baptized with his wife and daughter two weeks ago, bore his testimony in front of everyone. It was very spiritual. The two older daughters, Jorgelina and Mariana who are 15 and 13 years old, FINALLY made it to church for the first time. They've been going to seminary and all the activities for weeks but never come to church. So we were excited. We want to baptize them this upcoming Sunday! Which is the last day of the transfer. So pray for them.
I am hoping I don't get transferred though. I would love to stay here in Viedma because I love this place. And we had ten investigators in church which means things are going really well!
Well I am out of time! Sorry for the short letter but my bus is going to leave.
I will be calling this Sunday at 11 in the morning then. I hope that works because I am not allowed to call the night before to set it up. I AM allowed to do Skype though so get the computer ready!! Hahaha :D I love you all! Bye.
