It's been a great week here in Rivadavia!

Hey family and friends!!!!

It´s been a great week here in Rivadavia. I´m way glad that i´m staying here. There is so much still to learn and so many new people to meet! We also got a ward mission leader this week and he´s way excited to be working with us

The ward is going to chile for a temple trip!!! Lots of people are going for the first time and a wayyy cool family that we love is going to get sealed!!!!!! 

We´re working on teaching more with the members here in the zone and we´re continuing mate de la vida to get the members excited about missionary work! Yesterday we had a really good first lesson with the college student that invited us to go speak english in his class. He is way cool and understands things really well. He´s going to read and pray about the book of mormon and should be coming to conference this week!!! WOW i´m sooo excited for conference!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! took out the middle page of the last conference liahona where it shows the prophet apostles and other general authorities. We show it to everybody. 

Also yesterday in church i loved a story that was told. An eagle egg fell out of the eagles nest, rolled down a hill and into the chicken coop. the chicken mom raised it up, and it grew up thinking it was a chicken, not flying and just eating oats all day. One day he looked up into the sky, saw an eagle flying and thought, wow how i wish i  could do that too. He went and asked his mom if he could do that too and she said ´No, you´re a chicken, keep eating!!!´ so he bent over his head and kept eating. The brother speaking said that often we find our selves in a similar situation, among people who would have us think we are less than we are, and would have us do things that God wouldn´t have us do. I know that we are all children of a loving heavenly father who wants us to live up to our potential and to be happy, I´m so grateful for the opportunity that i have to be here on the mission!!!

Love you all,
