Heat in the Cold

This week was great. We started off teaching somebody that I haven't seen in a long time. This investigator said that the day we knocked on her door she had been praying for help and that's when we knocked. 
We had a great lesson. It rained a bit this week and it was pretty cold overall. We had some success with contacting. We played basketball again with our investigators at a gym indoors, it was really fun, it got me excited for the upcoming byu basketball season this year. This last Sunday we did the sacrament in the other side of the church because the heaters in the sacrament room are broken.
I hope all is well with you guys 
Love

Working, Visiting, Discussing, and Expanding Upon

Hello Everyone,

This week was pretty crazy but cool. The sister missionaries in Viedma were emergency transferred into the area and they took the other elder house and those elders went to another part of Viedma. We contacted like crazy this week meeting some great people. We were stopped by quite a few drunks and we tried to talk with them a bit.  We assured them that no, we didn't want to fight the whole time. It was fun.

We visited a lot of members this week as well and discussed the missionary work and family involvement in the work. On Sunday, President Cifuentes made a surprise visit to our church which made playing the piano a little bit more nerve racking. He was in a meeting the night before in Viedma.

Love,

Elder Blazzard

Un Buen Trabajo

The weeks are passing very quickly as this week was awesome in that we had a lot of fun. Monday, we had a great p-day playing basketball. On Tuesday, I went on divisions with Elder Eufasio. Wednesday was service day and on Thursday we got a call from the branch president that some shopping carts and a dog were in the church grounds so we took care of that situation.  During that job some guys came and wanted to play basketball and soccer.  They were really good. We taught a lady that had a dream about the Pearl of Great Price.

Friday I went on divisions with Elder Driggs (Brock's MTC companion) and that was cool. I went to Viedma for that one. Saturday was the big day in that we had a baptism of Guadalupe and then an activity of the Independence of Argentina and then we had our activity of the night of movies. Our investigator and her family went to all three :) and we were able to give her a triple. Oh, yea, I aslo gave a talk on Sunday about Zion.

Love,

Elder Blazzard

Great Week

It was a long week with a Zone Conference right in the middle of it. The work this week was good and one of my favorites actually. Very fun. We talked to a lot of members this week and we heard a lot of gossip, so not good on that end but we tried to calm them down and bring peace to their minds and hearts. We still have some work to do with the members.

We had a great lesson with our investigators J and A. and they are making some real progress. Well I will try to do something American today on the 4th. I am glad that you guys have finally made it to Utah.

Love,
Elder Blazzard

Hola Everyone,

This week was fun with the whole Copa América going on and related activities (soccer is serious). We had a good week of contacting and teaching. There are a lot of interesting people with strange habits in our teaching pool and within the city ... it is always fun to get to know them. I was able to use my computer know-how this week as well. I wiped a computer of it's viruses and stuff but a crazy kid who needed attention was on us the whole time and he almost stabbed my comp.

The movie night this week went real well. We brought like 10 kids and I was a little nervous for their safety but all went well.

Love,
Elder Blazzard
