Chau Chau Sunchales



!HOLA!

This week was so awesome! 
First off we have a new missionary schedule we now wake up at 7 and go to bed at 11:) We still have the same amount of sleep but it feels like we get to sleep in :) It changed because it is so hot here and more people are out and about in the night so that's why.

So they called us yesterday and I'm leaving Sunchales! I feel like i am leaving my home again like i did 5 months ago but its all good everything happens for a reason divine but i will miss everyone here and they all have a piece of my heart. I will now be living in Rosario and i will have another comp from Peru:) It's going to be so weird to go from my cute little town here in Sunchales where we run into our investigators everywhere in the doctors office on the street in the store everywhere and now I'll be in a big city! haha life's crazy. But i feel really good about this so i know it's all going to work out:)

So we basically have the best investigators ever here. Aby and Antonella and Fransico are siblings and they are the bomb they have come to church the past few weeks and really want to be baptized, but they need permissio from their dad first but he is really cool so I'm sure it will all work out:) but they brought out a bunch of hats one day and we took pics. Another day we played a game with a blind fold and they had to find Christ so the person was walking around not knowing where to go and one person had a pic of Christ and all of the rest of us were walking around saying that we had the pic of Christ and then after they finally found the pic we played again with a string and it was a lot easier to find Christ with the help of the string (or the scriptures) it was a success and they are the best and I'm going to miss them with all my heart but its all good. My comp and the newbie will continue helping them:)

My mission president is the best person ever. He has such faith and is helping us have faith as well that we really can baptize the people of argentina. Every week in his emails he encourages us that we can do it and guess what, We went from a really low number of people with a baptism date and now in the mission as a whole we have 400 something people with a baptismal date. The work is really progressing because the missionaries are increasing their faith. Faith really is so simple and has such power! 

I love being a missionary I have learned so much here from the people in Sunchales and it will always have a place in my heart. I will miss having church in the club de los abuelos and i will miss the small branch that we have here and all the people. I will miss the peacefulness of this tiny town, but I'm excited to meet new people in Rosario:)

Love you all!!!!!!!! READ YOUR SCRIPTURES!!

love hermana ñelson

onward and upward
stay safe

Clap Clap


OSCAR WAS BAPTIZED!
 It was seriously the best day of my whole life. He is an all around miracle. I don't think i told you guys this but the day we found him we had been contacting all day in the rain with no luck and at 8 at night we were about to clap at his house when he walked out and said that he heard us clap but we didn't. It was the angels:)  And now 3 weeks later he is baptized and has read the whole Book of Mormon. He is a miracle that one. The day of his baptism he felt so much peace and his leg that hurts him normally didn't hurt this day:) And when he was in the font and went under water he forgot to plug his nose so he got water in his nose but after he told us that it hurt to have water go up his nose but he would gladly do it again  because he feels so happy and peaceful. (Isn't he just the most precious thing you have ever seen?) After his baptism i really felt like i was flying-- my spirit was so happy for him:) ---another person has entered in the kingdom of god. It's the best feeling in the whole world. I feel so blessed that God let me be apart of teaching him:) When he received the Holy Ghost the same thing happened, the pain that he normally feels in his leg went away!!!!! Everything about him is a miracle! IM SOOOOOOO HAPPYYYYY FOR HIMMMMMMMMM


I LOVE YOU ALL. NEVER EVER stop reading the Book of Mormon. It really has power. power to do many things!
