HOLA FAMILIA,
Well got the exciting news about Ryan serving in MENDOZA ARGENTINA! It literally borders my mission but the
problem is there are the Andes (mountain range) in the way so we will never see each other. But im stoked cuzzy!
And The Baldwins too will be in Argentina and Chile! Wow i wonder if i will see them!
So what happened with my companion is that he has an ulcer in his stomach and his back hurts for another reason
but he cant take medicine for his back because of his ucler. But hes better now! Just tuesday he was like dying
because the medicine he is taking is so strong and he slept the whole day. But he got used to it and we work
normal now! Just cant eat any red meat or anything spicy! Stuff like that. So thats good that hes not going to die
ha,..mom, transfers are this next week! Half the people say i will never leave Galvarino and the other half say im
definitely leaving this time. I want one more here at least! We found some new people this week, but only two. I
was hoping to find families and was a little discouraged when we taught the new people alone (2 seperate people)
but in each of the lessons, we learned that they both have big families that all live with them! So hopefully the next
time we can teach the whole family of each of these people.
This week, we helped with an activity for mutual, and thursday we had to set up and friday is their mutual here. But
it was acting out the Plan of Salvation. For the Kingdoms, they had moons and stars hanging from the ceiling and i
was the only one that reached with the ladder haha so i had to put like 50 stars hanging from the ceiling. Ill take a
picture if they are still there. We got asigned the roles of Satan and his follower....haha it was really weird to act out.
But they started in the Sacrament room and then passed through a veil and learned about different stages of the life.
And all during that, we had to annoy them and tempt to leave or not listen. It was kind of hard to play this role and
distract from what i know is good but it made me really that Satan is real and that stupid little thought we have like
```no, dont pray now or dont read the scriptures´´ or even like ``you dont have to study or work or anything´´ are from
satan and we shouldnt listen. But then they passed through the other veil and learned about Paradise and Prision
and the 3 Kingdom. It was really cool to be up on the stage talking about how the Celestial kingdom is going to be
and what peace and love there will be. We could feel a strong spirit that this plan is real, not just something that a
man made up or drew out. But Heavenly Father really made this plan for us.
We had another activity that was the second MTC for the Members and we are using Preach My Gospel to teach all
of this. It is awesome to see the members get excited about this. Everyone should have a Preach My Gospel and
should study it! Help the missionaries there. Give them references!! Tell your neighboors about the gospel. this is
the greatest gift you can give.
Love you guys, miss you all!!

The Gonzalez family (the old bishop and his family) are going to another church :( I used to eat lunch with them every
day for like 2 months. And the little kid is Camilo the grandson of Hermana Irma where we live haha i dont know
why he is in the picture.
And Hermano Oliva made us burgers! He made a huge one and chicken sandwiches too. Hes the best!

Did you mean the Bishop's family is going to a different ward or a different church altogether, because that would be pretty sad!
