SO here in Argentina July 20th is what they call friend day, who knew they actually celebrated it hard core here, well we thought we would buy some little candies to hand out to people, then we found out some of the recent converts bought us a gift, we were freaking out realizing we needed to do something for them, what do you even buy for friend day! We ended up just buying more candy... haha hey we are poor missionaries!! Well they bought us mates and are going to teach us how to make mate, I'm pretty excited, it was really cute! So everyone happy friend day, oh and august 9th is kids day, these Argentines LOVE celebrating holidays!!
I'm sorry this letter is probably going to be pretty lame, not too much exciting has happened this last week, we are still looking for new investigators, we are walking A LOT and its hard, but then I realize at least i have a friend as my companion, things could be worse!!
Oh and some info we shouldn't know yet, but Hermana Ladds old comp called her, we are getting 3 new missionaries this next transfer, and it looks like I will probably be training... I'm so nervous, I would like another yankee but I will probably get a latin, I just hope its a good one!! I wont be going back to liniers, because president told me that he needs someone like Hermana Ladd to keep Tonelero going and that is why he chose me to go to Liniers! That is like a huge thing because she is an awesome missionary and everyone loves her here! But I'm so ready for it!
OK so to clear up the Gypsy thing, it was just a funny story, they never actually offered money, and the guy left to go back home! There are some gypsies that aren't good, they have a bad rep here, but the ones we are always with are just a little weird, but good people! The one we go see is a Gypsy, he just joined the church because he married a non Gypsy who is a member, and now she dresses like a Gypsy (poor girl) and lives the lifestyle, but they are really good members of the church! But the whole buying me thing, its kind of a joke, so you can stop worrying and tell dad that I'm perfectly fine!
OK so funny story, I needed Hermana Ladd to send me a letter from our president, so she went to forward it to me and put in the letter fool, remember that time the creepy man was making that noise, just a funny joke thing we have, well it ends up instead of forwarding it to me, she emailed that line to our mission president! HAHA we have been laughing about that one for the last 10 min! She had to write him again saying sorry, I can't wait to see if he says something next week! HAHA I'm just glad it wasn't me!! Sorry this letter is so lame, maybe once we start getting investigators it will be better! We have decided we need to be more obedient, so we study in separate rooms, and it is so hard to not talk to each other, its ridiculous, but oh well we are doing better!!
Hope everyone is well, and I'd love to hear from everyone and get pics of the cutest kids
in the world!!
Love y'all
