So guess what i did this week!!
I had my first argentina asado and let me tell you that is the
best thing in the world. for those of you that don't know asado is like
bbq but here in argentina its with the best meat in the world cause we
have cows up the wazoo and it's all you can eat!! It was so yummy!
and I think I might have eaten too much cause my insides were a little
messed up for like 3 days after.... too much happiness I guess.
Also the miracle of this week. So our mission pres
taught us how to baptize every week and you do it by making a deal of
sorts with God saying that this week you will sacrifice something so that
you can find someone that will be willing and ready to be baptized in
four weeks!! and we sacrificed singing all songs other than Disney
and church music :) and we were going to try to be on time to everything
more. Then we fasted and prayed a lot that we would find a family
of four that was married and that had 2 children (basically everyone
here isn't married) anyways we were walking down the road one day
contacting and everyone was saying no, no, but at one house a girl let
us in!! The mom and the 2 daughters were talking to us and we were
amazed by their faith!! and we were hoping that there was a hubbs
somewhere cause this family is so far fitting every description that we
asked for! and then the hubbs walks in and the wife says oh this is my
husband....!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHAT!!!
we found the family! miracle!!! one of the daughter accepted a baptismal
date but the other two are praying to know:) oh my goodness missionary
life is the best! i love these people!
and i know that god loves them too.
So
funny thing the other day we were in a lesson and the daughter was like
do you want a candy its cherry flavored:) and I'm like um yes please!!!
and i put it in my mouth and its a .... cough drop. yup straight up
cough drop. mmm yummy thank you! and then after we had swallowed it she
said want another!? haha so they eat cough drops like candy here and its
actually not that bad, but it was really weird in the beginning.
I love argentina and the people here! i know that
god has a plan for everyone even tho life is hard sometimes but it's LIFE
that's hard, living the gospel is easy.
I LOVE YOU ALLLLLLLLLLL!!!
