Hey everyone!!
So, this week was a good one!
First off we have been working hard to push the new up and
coming Christmas intuitive of the church called "ilumina el munda"
that drops the 26th of this month! so we have planned right now to make a whole
bunch of Chinese lanterns and light them off right in the middle of Capital
Corrientes to literally illuminate the world!
Well us and the other Elders in Laguna Seca (Elder Sheehan and
Elder Lloyd... obviously) have been experimenting a lot with these lanterns
trying to figure out how to actually do them... well that obviously comes with
some trial and error... We found out that 1) paper is really flammable...
especially mixed with alcohol and 2) it’s best NOT to make these things inside your
apartment... it’s an outside activity... because about 2 or 3 times now we have
almost caught the apartment on fire.... so we finally decided we aren’t going
to kill ourselves and all the member and their friends so the mission office is
going to send us a bunch of kits from Buenos Aires to make them... in a lot
safer and a more fun manner!
Also, right now the mission is pushing hard for Corrientes to
become a stake (for all the Mormons that know what that is:) right now so they
have been pushing us to go out hard every single day. I’m assuming it is on
Presidente Francos “To Do” list before he bounces out in June of next year! But
the assistants to the President are coming out to Corrientes every day they can
to come work with us so this last Tuesday was Maipú´s for them to come put in
work! And it was alright! it wasn’t anything magical or anything... just the
same old same old! but it was nice to get to know them a a little better and
spend the day with them!
But all is well!
One to the next one!
Elder Peters
I haven’t heard anything about the elections here... all the
people say is "what do you think about your new president?" and we
just say "well....... who is our new president??" yes the election
was big down here! They care about it more than they do their own election!
That’s cool that in the States they can actually do things like
no knock November... because here that would leave every missionary with
nothing to do.... Just think about how frustrating it can be when the
missionaries ask if you have anyone to teach and you guys say no... that’s my
life everyday....
We spend a lot
of time with Elder Sheehan an Elder Lloyd especially with this up and coming activity...
you haven’t seen the Christmas video yet because it doesn’t come out until the
26th of this month... I haven’t even seen it yet... I will probably see it the
22nd when we have a multizona in Resistencia! but we will see!
But I hope that you guys are staying safe up there! Sounds pretty
crazy! Sounds like things are just as they always are!! It’s just been getting hotter and hotter every
day!
But have a great week!
with love
Jon
