Week 2 Colonel Bogado

Mba'e la porte che sociokuera?! Esta semana pasada fue un poco diferente, pero mi compañero y yo tenemos una visión por nuestra area acá en Coronel Bogado :D Bueno...

HEY! What´s up y´all! This week was legit! We´re gonna whip this place around and make it BOOM! I´m so excited!

Está bien.. Voy a contestar las preguntas!

What Zone number are you in?
I am now in Zone 11! It´s pretty awesome. Sometimes I miss my old Zone 9 though.. and 8. But it´s good!

What is your apartment like?
It´s kinda ghetto.. I think it might be my favorite one so far though. I´ll have to take pictures and send them in the email next week!

Tell us more about your companero.  His family, we found his Facebook page.  Is he the oldest?  Are you two getting along okay?
He´s a stud! I love Elder Wilding! He reminds me of Derrek a lot, just his mannerisms and stuff like that. We get along great. I feel like I´ve known him for ever. And yeah he´s the oldest in his family..

Do you miss Santa Rita?
I do.. I miss my converts there and the investigators and members. That was a cool apartment too... Other than that, not really!

 How are you liking your new area?
I love it! It has a lot of city.. Well, we´re over like 4 cities that all touch. This area is HUGE! The members are great! They really want to help us with the work. Yesterday we had 21 in church! So it´s gonna grow!

How many are in your district?  How many in your zone?  Do you know any of the Elders or sisters?
There are 6 in my district.. and I don´t know about the zone still.. It´s one of the bigger ones in the mission though. There´s 3 districts and I think the other 2 have 8 missionaries.. I´ll find out tomorrow when we go to the TEMPLE!!

Can you see Argentina?
In some parts yeah! I´ll have to take a picture next week on our way to district meeting. We have to take an hour bus ride every week to get to our district meetings.. It´s fun!

Have you gotten your package yet?
I got it today!!! Thank you so much! It´s great! We just had peanut butter and jelly sandwiches for lunch. It was SOO good! Even though the bread here goes bad 10 minutes after you open it..

WELLLL, we had a pretty good week this week. We still don´t have any investigators, but that´s just because satan is having a little power over them.. God is more powerful than satan! Satan is a poop head! I would fist fight him if I could.. He doesn´t have a body so I can´t really do anything.. He got away from me this time! I´ll just shove it in his face and keep doing what God wants me to do. HAH! Take that satan..

Alright. We got tons of great references this last week. We´re going to start teaching them, but we gotta fix the organization in the branch here first.. I´m not going to lie, it´s a disaster! Not for much longer though. I´m excited to get this place turned around and have the 100 inactive members come back to church! And from the sound of it, it won´t be too hard to get them back. We gotta show them what the Church is all about. They´ll come back. And they´ll bring their friends! :D

The other night I heard Elder Wilding scream.. He was back in the room and I was in the front room getting ready for bed.. He yelled, ¨Elder Heiner! Get in here fast!¨ So I ran in and he was like, ¨There´s a huge rat that just jumped out of the air conditioner onto my bed! Now he´s under your bed!¨ Bahh! So I ran and got the broom to smash the rat.. But we never found it.. It was funny though because there was a bunch of dust bunnies from the A/C on my comps bed. Plus we´ve been finding lots of rat poop in the apartment.. We´re gonna buy rat poison and kill that stupid thing. Plus theres a lot of cucarachas (I forgot how to spell that in English.. It´s easier in Spanish cuz it´s just like it sounds..) and we gotta kill them too.

So yeah, I think I was in Santa Rita for 6 months for a reason.. To help me to know what to do here! Seriously, there are so many things I learned in Santa Rita that make this place seem like a piece of cake. We´re gonna tear this place up! We´ve got like 4 families that are ready for baptism! It´s going to be great! Plus we´re going to the Temple tomorrow!! We´re going to receive lots of revelation for our area tomorrow! And we´re going to follow it. YEEAAAAHHHHHHH!! Bring it ON!!

Alright.. I gotta go write President! I love you ALL and hope you have a fantastic week! Thanks for everything!
LES AMO TANTO!!
