Evangelico Cosas

This week was a very busy week. On Tuesday,  we had a noche de hogar with m and m and their family (they are the only members in their family). We played 20 questions which is fairly difficult in Spanish. We ate torta frita and had a good lesson on building your life on gospel principles.
Wednesday we had lunch with a member and they gave us noodles with brains. Pretty good. We also went to an evangélico church because we were invited to go by one of our investigadores ( a son of
one of their apostles. I might of let the extra air come out of my nose when I heard that). Their church was very interesting being very loud and a little scary.

On Thursday we had a lesson with a reference we received and it went very well and she acts like a true investigator with lots of questions. That night we ran into the English teacher and she asked us
what we are doing for Thanksgiving and we said nothing much, maybe delivery. She didn't like that answer so she invited us over for a Thanksgiving cena the next night. We had steak and intestines, so
gross, but I put it down of course.

On Saturday we played soccer and football at the church with our friends. Yesterday we  had church and I played the piano.

cuarenta tercera semana

Hola,

Things are going very well here in General Acha where a lot of our investigators are progressing and
attending church. My companion and I still continue to remind the members of our goals and the things they can do to help us the most. It was pretty stormy here at this point in the year and the normal thunder is very loud. At times I think the house will collapse.

This last week was also good. We were able to have a family home evening with the English teacher in the area and her family. They are very strong Catholics, however, they will listen and do like the focus the Gospel places on the family. For family home evening we went to a park outside of the city about 10 miles east. It was a nice place and then we went back to their home to eat.  It turned out great. We had to new investigators come to church yesterday and they liked the services, a lot.

Love,
Elder Blazzard

I staying in General Acha another transfer with Elder Hand still. We had another baptism last Saturday and everything went well. We will probably have another 2 by the 28th. We heard that the whole mission is going to Bahia Blanca for Christmas and that there are going to be big changes and surprises, whatever that means. We continue to find really awesome people here and our lessons are getting really good. Elder Hand and I just teach really well together.

Thanks for the support, I feel your prayers daily.

S and S

This week was a good one. We did service for one of our investigators moving a pile of dirt five feet then we moved it back (?). It was fun.  Then we taught the plan of salvation it went super bien. In addition, we tried to help him start his car by pouring gasoline directly into the engine. I thought that we would blow up, but no, the car just started. I got super burnt. We had 2 baptisms that went well on Saturday. That night I noticed something in my blanket so I cut it open and found a mouse. Don't worry it was dead pero casi vomité.

La General Acha Barrio

This week was good and the work is progressing. We should have a baptism this Saturday and the
following if everything goes to plan. One morning I discovered bug bites all over my body. I had a super bad case of bed bugs. I cleaned that problem up and I think I got it fixed for good. We had interviews with el Presidente after stake conference in Santa Rosa. I was good. We are to expect more changes coming to the mission in terms of hours.  We work in the morning instead of studying and then do our studying during the siesta around midday.  This is a very good adjustment which I like. Also starting in January we will not be able to eat at other people's homes, even members, so they
are going to double our money, which is awesome because I didn't even get feed in my last two areas.

Love
Elder Blazzard

!Por Acha!

Hola Todos. At the beginning of this week, it was very hot and then it was very rainy. This weird weather is killing my ears. We met and had very good lessons with two families this week. They are very nice to us with food and drinks, and one of the families can speak English so that was fun. Yesterday was a weird day because after church we received a call from the Zone Leaders indicating that we were to stay in our apartment the rest of the day until this morning. They said it was for the elections that currently underway. I did hear a lot of honking and screaming last night, which was kind of scary, but of course nothing happened. I am doing great and we are really digging in here in Acha ¡POR ACHA! (it's all over the walls here) Elder Blazzard

La Obra en el Barrio

Hola! This week was good in that we did a lot of work with the active and inactive members of the barrio. For the most part is was positive. I am feeling more comfortable expressing my feelings about the Gospel with others. On Friday, I went on divisions with an Elder from Peru. It was fun. We played some basketball at the church with some investigators Saturday. The rims are like 8ft off the ground so I was able to dunk with ease, so that was awesome. We continue to push members to reach out to others with love and they are taking it well and all seem to want to work so that is good.

Love, Elder Blazzard
