Hey everyone, this week was kinda crazy! It was my last week in my first area, Italia Centro.. RIP... but now I´m in a new area called San Martin (Misiones, Posadas) it is so cool and way different than my first area. This place has red dirt, hills, and trees. So it's way different than what I ́m used to, but I know that it will be really good for me, and that God has prepared this place and the people for me and my companion. Before I actually came to this area, in my older area, I ran into a tree... I thought you might like to know that. The only tree in Formosa, and I happened to run into it. But I ́m fine, I just have a little mark not too noticeable, but I'll send a picture. My new companion ́s name is Hermana Rowlings and she is from Nebraska. She only has for months left in the mission, so this will probably end up being her last area, so I have no idea how long I will be here. My companion and I are both new to the area so we are going to have a fun time figuring ev...

Hey everyone! What's up? Hope you all had a good week. My week was really chill, not much happened. But, this week we had Multizona and it was really good. It was really nice to not have a headache after multizona because I actually understood everything and didn't have to focus really hard to understand, yay!!!! But ya, then the next day we had interviews with president, and he told me that I was finally going to leave my area! So after almost 6 months in my first area, I will finally be able to see more of my mission and get to meet new people. Other than that, we have just been meeting new people and teaching new people..... just doing the missionary work. It keeps getting hotter, then a little cold again, and then maybe next week it will be hot again. Hope you all have a good week and remember to always share the gospel with the people you know and love! Hermana Pollock

This week was actually really good!! It was a little stressful, but for all the good things that can pass in a mission. We had the wedding of one of our investigators who I have been teaching since my first transfer. So I've known her forever. All she has wanted was to be baptized for the longest time, but could not because her husband was married to someone else. It was really complicated, but she figured it all out, and she was able to get married, so we worked on all the papers and she was able to get married on Thursday!! It was a really good day! Then on Saturday, she got baptized with her son, her best friend, and the two daughters of her best friend! It was so good, but like always, something happens to make the day really hard and stressful, but because this is the Lords work, it always works out! But then Sunday the son of Olga, the lady who got married, did not want to go to church because it was to early and he was tired. So we had to try to get him there and he was co...

So this week was really good, but only because of General Conference! That was the best part of my week! I invite all of you to watch it if you haven´t watched it. This week has also been a little stressful with one of our investigators. It's a family of three, and we have been trying to help them prepare for baptism for a while now. They really want to be baptized, but don´t have a lot of time for us to come by and have the interview. They also don't have a lot of time to come to church because something always happens, so they can't come, which just reminds me that we are here doing the work of the Lord and Satan is here doing his on work... Which just makes me mad, but what can I do about that... anyways, it also rained a lot, and one thing is we can't enter into a house with a man who lives alone. So we sat outside of his house and talked to him, taught him, and it started to pour!, but we still talked and taught. We were probably outside in that lesson for an ho...
