On tuesday, Elder Gibbons called me from the airport and told me goodbye (he´s home now) and that I will be washing an area in chimbas with elder Garcia. The area is Rivadavia and it´s where Elder Blackman started actually! Elder Garcia did exchanges here a few times last transfer so he knows a few members and a little of the area.
So wednesday, the terminal, and i got to see elder lafleur again, and elder magdaluyo and a few other elders that i know well. and then off to chimbas!!!
On Wednesday night we went to go see the bishop and he´s great! They´ve got lots of plans going on missionary work and retention and reactivating! It´s a great ward!
We´re also working with a less active family, the de los Rios family. They are way cool and saturday we were able to go with the brother to teach his mother in law and brother in law as well! They were committed to coming to church but then didn´t show up.... On Saturday we went to meet the poblete family of members. The mom doesn´t have arms! But she prepared malta for us, searched through my scriptures, handed stuff to us. she does it all! Wow it was way cool to meet her! And then on sunday, we didn´t have lunch and so they invited us over! Church was really good! The members here are awesome and love the missionaries. The youth program is really strong here. I believe there are 6 missionaries out! We also got to meet on sunday night with the ward mission leader and 3 of 4 ward missionaries! Way cool! I´ve never been in a ward with ward missionaries down here till now!
Well i´m loving it here in Chimbas. We´ve also got walmart like right next to the pension. literally 3 minute walk. The investigators are starting to come. I´m learning a lot from Elder Garcia. He works a lot different. A lot more relaxed but thinks things out really well and is a great people person!
I love being the mission and i love you all,
Elder Fullmer
