Hello family how is it going? What's up, another week, it's very rainy here
in Iberetta. Last p-day the Elders
called and said President Franco is going to come to church in your area next
Sunday. We don't have very many chairs
at church so we decided we'd take 9 chairs from Iberetta to Las Lomitas. We strapped 3 sets of 3 chairs with tape and
we carried them back to the pension. We
walked about a half a mile with chairs on our head, and it was hot! We spent the night at district meeting and then
after the meetings, about 2:30 in the afternoon, we took the chairs up to the
terminal. We are already weird enough
being white missionaries in Argentina and now we are walking around with chairs
on our heads because that's the only way we had to carry them. We get to the bus stop and they'd blocked the
highway. What happens when people get
mad here and they want the government to take action the people will close down
the main highways so no one can get by until they get what they want. Last week they'd done this so the highway was
shut down so we couldn't get back to Las Lomitas. So we stayed Tuesday and worked here and then
Wednesday morning we went back to Las Lomitas and took the chairs with us.
You probably saw the pictures of the cow. There was a girl having her Quinceanera party
when she turns 15. Her family had bought
a whole cow and they were cutting it up for a BBQ.
Saturday it rained so President Franco
couldn't come to the meetings on Sunday.
So sadly he didn't come but hopefully he'll come next month.
The church building that we found has been rented to someone
else. We told President and he wasn't
very happy but we'll start looking for another one and we'll see what happens.
This week we found a new couple named M and
A. M is a member and A is the son of some less active people.
A is gold, the first lesson he accepted a baptismal date and he's
solid. We are still teaching G and
N. They gave us their ID and tomorrow when we go
to Formosa, because of my ingrown toenail, we'll take their IDs and get their
birth certificates so they can get married, maybe in a couple of weeks. D and C are doing good, D accepted a baptismal date for the beginning of May, kind of far but that's what
she wanted. C still needs to get
married. After that we are talking to
R who also accepted a baptismal date.
That's about it, love you guys. Have a great week, Ciao.
