Wrapping it Up
This week was awesome in that we did a lot of contacting in the heat of the day. We met and talked with a lot good people. We did an activity with the branch to find the less actives and talk with them and invite them to the Christmas activity. Yesterday I went to Millamapu with Elder Riding. Elder Riding will return home with me on the 29th of December. We visited my investigators/converts and members in that ward. It was great to see them all and a lot of fun. I was able to see almost everyone and they all remember me, so that made me happy.
This morning we ate Subway.
See you on Christmas Day (Skype session)
Love,

Villa Harding Green
Hello All,
This week was pretty crazy in the new area of Villa Harding Green of Bahia Blanca. As you know, I had served near this area before when I was in Millamapu at the beginning of my mission around a year and a half ago. I knew a lot of people here. One sister recongized me and went crazy when she saw me. She had thought I was already home. The area is good and the branch has like 70 active, so this area has the biggest branch/ward of all the areas in which I have served.
Eight missionaries sleep in our house and we sleep outside. It's fun but the bugs are eating me alive. Yesterday I woke up and couldn't feel my finger because of a spider bite. I was also sun burned real bad Wednesday when we were doing service.
Love

Last Week in Tres Arroyos
Well I'm being transferred to Villa Harding Green in Bahia Blanca for my final three weeks of the mission. This works because this area is next to my first area so maybe I will be able to see some of my olds friends and aquaintences. I will be in a trio until the end to make it easier for President for this post-Christmas departure date. This last week was fun here in Tres Arroyos and I'm going to miss it a lot. We had Conference with President last tuesday it was great.
The christmas party will happen in 2 weeks.

Dia de Gracia
Hola. This week was pretty fun and productive as we obtained over 30 contacts and we taught some aewsome lessons. Two of our investigaters even agreed to pray. The work on our apartment is coming along and the plumbing is now finished. Another worker is going to come today to clean the house up from all the construction.
For Thanksgiving we ate at home and had turkey, mashed potatoes and gravy. We also ate a lot of desserts like apple citter and we even drank Sparkling Cider. We have a Zone Conference tomorrow, so the assistants will be staying in our house tonight.

Summer Contacting and Moving
This week was good a little cooler, so that was good. We did a lot of contacting this week again. I have been feeling very nostigic for Spirit Lake with the hot weather and the sunscreen. Well, this week we had to switch apartments because they have to redo the piping in ours. So we moved next door and it was pretty easy. We were going to move to a really nice appartment but it was too far away. This new appartment smells bad. We had some good lessons this week, it was fun.
I really trying to focus on our investigaters so that they will go to church.

Contacting
Hello Everyone, This last week of missionary week was busy adn good. On Monday, for p-day, we played a lot of ping pong. On Tuesday it was raining hard. Wednesday we contacted a lot of people including Jehovah's Witnesses, that was fun. On Thursday another Jehovah's Witness let us into his home to talk to us about his beliefs.
We listened quietly for an hour or so, then we bore our testimonies and left. On Friday we were in a trio because Elder Gallard's companero was in a leadership meeting in Bahia. The day went well. On Saturday we worked into eight more contacts in the morning, one being a snake, that literally danced her way towards us, smiling. That was funny. Sunday we talked with a Adventista from Bolivia very nice, but only talked about Saturday as a religious point of doctrine. Last Night we had an Asado, super rico. In todo we had 23 contacts this week, meaning somebody that we talked to that accepted a return lesson.
Love
