CCM Week 3

How's it goin' yáll? Can't believe it's already been another week!

Last Saturday we went for the first time to proselitismo. I have no idea how to spell that in English haha!!! They shipped us out in this big bus to a nicer part of Buenos Aires and handed us some pamphlets and were like, teach the gospel!!! And so we went, me, Sis Trujillo, and Sis Pereira, our Brazilian companion who is now in Mexico, haha. We had quite the adventure. Maybe somehow I will get over my dislike of dogs because they are literally everywhere in Buenos Aires. When people wouldn't accept our message, we would extend our invitations to the dogs, who always seemed to be more interested haha. No really, it was good. We walked away with 4 people's references and 20 contacts, and we felt pretty good about it for our first time. The best part for me was talking with a family who were waiting for the bus. They actually seemed really interested, we talked about the plan of Salvation and they said they would like to hear more so we took their info. There's nothing better than families who are prepared! But honestly I had no idea what most people in the city were saying. They like, slur and mumble all their words and so I don't know how things will go this Saturday but you know, God is real so it will work out!!!! 

Uhhhh what else? Oh! We have this prank going on between all the Norteamericanos, where we shove Castidad Chastity folleto [church pamphlets about chastity] in people's stuff and under their doors and in their beds..  I don't know why but it's kind of funny. Sis Trujillo and I put everyones Castidad pamphlet on their desks, but then this other guy came in and stole all of them, and long story short the other elders were falsely accused for our cruddy prank and we had to come clean about it. I'm sure this makes no sense. Uhm, the CCM is a good time. We joke around hahah!!! And now nobody has a Castidad folleto. 

Both of my fake investigators are getting baptized! Woo! 

Oh and this sunday we watched the Joseph Smith movie, the prophet of the Restauration one, and I didn't know anything could make me cry more than 17 miracles but that was it! Haha I just love Joseph Smith so much, it's almost unhealthy how much I love Joseph Smith. Today I went and bought a little card painting of him to spoil myself haha. I just.. man. Nauvoo really is the basis for all my testimony, and I feel like I know the man personally. The last line of that movie is Shall we not go on in so great a cause? and I really wish it was a scripture cuz if it was I'd put it on my plaque. 

Oh! I'm out of time. Love you guys so much! Ponder this, in the armor of God, what is the only offensive tool you are given? Why? #teacherprep

Kisses to all of you! miss you so much,
