Family ,
How are you all? I am really worried about them cuz i have not heard from any of you all for quite sometime, just i really don't know what to think of whats going on back home. Cause it has been a total of two good weeks that i have not heard from you all back home, i am really lost on whats going on back home, with everyone.. so i pray to the lord almighty that you all are alright. Well i truly hope you are alright, cuz now i am in a new area, I am back in the zone of Santa Fe Norte. But this time I am not in the area of General Lopez i am in the area of Pompeya , which i am not going to lie is a really nice area, I have a feeling that I am really going to like it in this area. The barrio is full of young kids , from the ages of 12- 19 it is just full of jovens. Which for me is a first in the misión i have never seen so many kids that go out and help us in the work, they want to help us teach the lessons with the investigadores, which i must say is utterly amazing. So its really a great area i must say.
I have a new compa, his name is Elder Craner, he is from Idaho , from Rex burg , from where BYU is at. I must say he is a really good elder, he has about 10 months in the misión. He started his misión in the same place where i started my misión , in Federal, in Entre Rios… so its really cool he was my replacement when i left that area in Entre rios.. so its pretty sweet i can talk to him about the old area and everything… he is the secound oldest in his family he has a brother and sister that follow him .
Well family i really don't know what to think cuz i have not HEARD anything from any one in the family, Mom ,Dad , Chon , Cliff, Deb, Daryl , etc… i really don't know whats going on in the house or any of your lives , and to tell you the truth i am really really sad , i must say for a misiónary , not to have email is quite depressing , and i am worried for you all as my parents , brothers, sister , family, i have no idea for anything…. I kinda wish i had something to work off of… I really don't know what to say other then that i am just worried for you all.. Cuz last week i sent Mom a letter to her email account which is the mac and it showed to me that it did not send. So then i sent the letter to her work email, and it showed that it sent. But i go today to my email, and now it shows that no one sent anything back.. So i am really worried that i can't get any of your emails or that i can't get any of yours.. I am going to keep you all really deep down in my prayers cuz i am truly worried for you all.
Family i love you all, to the souls of my Heart. I pray that everything is going good for you . I don't want you all to worry for me cuz i am doing really good hear in argentina, i am in the lords hand and i have been protected and i know He will keep protecting me in this work of his, to preach his great and holy Word to his children her in Pompeya… i love you all , i would love to hear from any one of you …. I love you all thank you for you support…….
Love ,
From your lil son and lil brother..
Keeping strong to our Faith

Si Se Vale la Pena
Family,
Its so good to hear from you I must truly say. I felt really good to hear from you all this week I dont know why but it did. I must tell you this week was really good for us we have a investigator who we have been preparing for his baptism, and another one in the district, from the other set of elders in Villa Diego. So in this coming week we have two baptism coming up, I am really excited in every way for the district and for my own personal self as well. I must say it sounds like you all were quite busy this week but when are you all not busy, I dont think I would like parents who sit still.. But I must have to agree with dad on preparing the food, if it does bring more people to church it is well worth it… In Spanish there is a frase for that "si se vale la pena"… I think in that why it totally does.. I must say any church activity is a huge weapon for the missionaries, but it just hurts the missionaries if a ward does not do activities. It just stops the work, in a way… the best advice I can give you all coming from the missionary field is try to have the most activities that you can within the week and the month.. it is a huge tool for the work of the Lord…I must say that is where I wish the barrio I am in could be doing better in. Cause it would help us out a lot , so that is the best advise I could give you all as Readers of this letter in El paso.
It sounds like you all had a good Halloween , which is really cool, we wanted to buy some watermelon ,but when we went to go buy they ran out so it was pretty sad, so we just stayed working in the Lords way….Its so crazy that we got a new dog in the house, its crazy and exciting at the same time… I hope to see him when I get home . I can have a new pal when I get there,( wow Jessup dont get trunky now still long ways a way.. ) To tell you the truth the transfer has flown buy at a very unreal Speed that is just way to Fast. To tell you the truth it's kinda scared to see how Fast the next part of my mission goes… i know I have to work hard and just enjoy it cuz it really is the Only time in my life that i will have such a honor to serve the Lord in the way i am doing..
I WANT TO TALK A LIL ABOUT THE BAPTISM,
Ahora pues , a causa del convenio que habeis hecho ,sereis llamados progenie de cristo, hijos e hijas de el porque he aquí , hoy el os ha engendrado espiritualmente , pues decis que vuestros corazones han cambiado por medio de la fe en su nombre, por tanto habeis nacido de el y habeis llegado a ser sus hijos y sus hijas….. Mosiah 5: 7
I know that we all can remember that great and wonderful day of our baptism, on how wonderful it was… and tell you all that we can still feel that great and wonderful joy of the lord each and every week as we partake of the santa cena…i know this is the way the Lord wants us to remember him each and every day as we go through our life..I thank you all, mom go ahead and thank Lope for me , i really appreciate it and I thank her for the donation to my great mission..
I thank all of my family for everything even down to the love of which you all show me as well …. Next week I will be writing on Tuesday cuz it will be transfers, so I'll tell you all if i am leaving or not, I'll have the news by then.. i love you all thank you again..
I know this is the church of the lord and that he loves us , that he gave us the great book of mormon to help us out in are lives for this very time in need… i love this very work and thank you again… tell next P,DAY FAMILY THANK YOU
