week of service.

Hola mi querido familia!  muy buenas días de la mejor lugar y toda el mundo... si buenos aires oeste!  habla su hija, hermana, y angelito.  Espero que tengan la mejor semana, con nuestro extranjero sorella Alley.  que loco!  un gran bienvenida por su viaje!

Tuesday I started out with a blessing from my liders of the zone.  Elder garay and elder collins gave me one of the most beautifully worded and phrased blessings.  I felt the spirit so strongly and although its dificult to remember all the details I could feel the love that My heavenly father has for me and his Son Jesus Christ.  I am very grateful to see the priesthood in action and to have to it so closely available when I need it.  It was even better in castillano. I sure do love this langauge. I know that as I go on with the weeks I will be using what I felt and heard as a strength and backbone to completing and giving all to my purpose as a missionary.

We followed the blessing by a super great zone meeting.  we are super caseros and everyone was given  a character by the leadrs.. bet you could guess what mine is... thats right wonder woman. the only thing I can remember about her is her clothing... haha and that she definitely isnt blond. but it fits right?   we focused on the atonement and there wasnt a dry eye in the bunch.  I just love when we all get together and its just feel good time!  pumps me up to work and do myo best. 

wednesday we had capaticiones with president and two other zones.  we went over the conference we had exactly a week ago and I must say revising and regurgating was twice as better.  I came out learning so much more than I had missed the prior week. We are focusing the missionar right now in the book of mormon.  we are all under using it, expecially me. Its time to a spring freshing up!  I also liked an anogy he said.. that as missionaries we need to be in the middle of the rivers rapids.  its definitly the hardest but thats where we should be. that is where the nutrition is, and really where its the most fun.  so get a swimming enough of just sticking your toes in get a treading.  

This week we did quite a lot of service.  We painted a house, touched up a hospital by painting, lawn work, and odd and ed jobs.  It was for helping hands day of service. (you have no idea how many cigarett buds I picked up on the lawn of the hospital...).  I could resist and the hospital in one location has a print of hermana alley.  mabye one day someone will find it... hehe  I love serivice there really isnt anything that makes you more happy.  and the best part is everyone was super impressed and interseted in the churhc after... just goes to show you that its the work of the Lord in action.  

Love you all and take care of a certain returned missionary for me!  Have a wonderful week! 

Treat christine to an argentine breakfast. it consists of bread with butter and mate tea.... yum!  almost a dallas, almost. 
"some of our investigatores that live in a villa... a lot of houses in a tiny place. he came to church yesterday, ordoney and olga."

"LECHON!  its baby pig....  can you believe it... I about cried when I saw it because it still has its little curled up tail... it was for the cumple of a member!"
