Well, this week was just another week in the mission until Sunday, well that's a lie, there were many things that happened during this week that doesn't happen all the time. First we had multizona, it was the last multizona for my companion so we wore black. We also had interviews with our president and he told me that I will probably be going to have another transfer here so we are looking at another 4 transfers in an area. So, what happened this Sunday is that we were supposed to have a baptism on Sunday, but then we couldn't find him. We looked all over the place and couldn't find him and we couldn't even find him that afternoon. His family doesn't even know where he was, so we are just praying a lot that we will be able to find him on Tuesday and find out what happened that day. But ya, that was all that really happened this week, nothing much, and it was just really hot like always. Hope you all have a great week and stay safe!!!! Hermana Pollock

This week was really good! We were kinda in all parts of Posadas, but we went to this one part of our area that is really far away and the people there are really awesome, but the problem is they are so far away from the church so it would be really hard for them to get there. But we just did a lot of divisions and helping other Hermanas with other things, so we were kinda all over the place. Also, we almost had a baptism this week, but she turned out to be a member, so ya fue.... and something really funny that happened this week, well, that I thought was really funny. During our ward council they were all passing around mate (a tea drink) and we are all like talking about serious church stuff and they are all passing mate. That is Argentina for ya. This week was just really good seeing one of our investigators who is getting ready for baptism this week really grow his testimony and it is one of the coolest things to see. Every time he has a doubt, he prays about it, and he told us...

Well, this week was a good quick week. But really nothing happened. We had some really good charlas with some people and one of our investigators who we have been teaching for a while finally came to church and has finally stopped smoking!!!!! He is so awesome and I was talking to my companion about this when we left the church, but she said "did you ever think that the first day we contacted him he would ever step into a church?" and it is so true, because we really didn't think that he was an interested person, but really God knows who is ready and is guiding us to those people. It is amazing to see how much he has changed and is wanting to have a better life! I love the mission and seeing the change in people's lives and that they are ready to put in their part and actually make that change! It is crazy how fast time is going. Love you all and really I didn't take too many pictures, but I have some last minute pictures. Hope you all have a great week and re...

Happy New Year ya'll!!!!!! This week was really good! Well, in some ways. First of all, New Years Day was just a chill day, we didn't do anything, just hung out with other missionaries and played games and watched movies. It was really fun! Other than that, there was only one other thing that really happened on Saturday, which was really kinda funny. So what happened is that this day was kinda hard for us because we didn't really feel very good, but we had so many people that yelled at us when we were in the street. Lots of members from other places, but the funniest one was when this drunk guy yelled at us and said "hermanas, when are you going to come and visit me?" and he crossed the street to come and talk to us, which we did, and he said that it was really hard to read our names and that they were in English so he didn't understand our names, but then he said that he wanted a book so we gave him a folleto and then he told us to give him one of our chu...
