OH MY GOSH MATTHEW IS GOING ON A
MISSION TO HOUSTON TEXAS! HE'S GONNA BE SPEAKING SPANISH! OH MY GOSH I'M
FREAKING OUT HERE FREAKING OUT!! THAT'S SOOO EXCITING!! I'm honestly
sooo excited to serve in the mission field with you, bud. You're gonna
be the best companion EVER! :) Start studying now:) Sometime soon I'll
send you a list of things to buy that would have been nice to know
beforehand:) Congratulations Matthew! Wahooo for missionaries! :):):)
So, I hope ya'll had a Happy Easter! The Easter
bunny got lost on his way to Rio Grande this year....Santa Claus didn't
get my letter with my new address in time for Christmas...I sure hope I
don't lose a tooth cause I'm guessing the tooth fairy doesn't work for
Argentina. Puuucha. That's okay, one of the hermanas in the ward made us
some bread and several other members gave us chocolate eggs...which in
argentina are a total rip off because they're HOLLOW. Not complaining
though. Haha:)
This week has been really cold. One morning it was
-7 degrees Celsius when we left our apartment. That's like 20ish degrees
Farenheit if I did the math right. I've been doing my studies in my
sleeping bag at my desk. It's quite an effective way to stay warm. It's a
real problem though when I have to get up for something...I generally
end up hoping around the pension like a penguin. Good times.
The Elder from the seventy that was supposed to come
for a tour of the mission cancelled at the last minute so we didn't get
to go to Ushuaia but this week we will or next week..I'm not sure on
the schedule. I'm super excited! :) The zone conference, (which is
different from the interviews since you asked, mom) was awesome! We
talked about obedience, contacting, dropping investigators and the
atonement! Hermana Rogers gave us a really cool scripture chain about
the last week of Christ's life. Also, the church made a 2 minute video
for Easter this year. In Spanish it's called "Gracias a El" I assume in
English it's something like "Thanks to him" but it's really cool! Ya'll
should watch it!
So, I officially got my mission call one year
ago...I think it came on April 17th if I remember right...at that time I
was only dreaming of being in Argentina and Tierra del Fuego...crazy.
Where did the year go? That also means that Emily and Craig are reaaal
close to their one year mark. Wahooo! Congratulations Emily and Craig!! I
love you both sooo much:)
I've got a lot to tell you but they're kicking us out of the internet cafe! I'll tell you more next week! :)
I love you all! Have a great weeek! :)
Hermana Heath
