Hey Fam how was the week! We had the most attendance in this ward that we have had here in a long time. It was the primary presentation that went really well it was so funny. I have fallen completely in Love with the little argentine kids. The little kids here are so cute and it’s so fun to be with them. We went to a little birthday part yesterday that some investigators were having for there little girl. It was pretty fun they had a little piñata and we ate a lot of food. We had six people that attended the church on Sunday so we are really excited about that. That family that I told you about last week with the girls in the family are awesome! They are going so well, this week we are going to invite them to be baptized. The parents aren’t married so we still have some work to do with them, the mom is totally eating up the book of mormon though. So we are first going to invite the girls to get baptized and then we will work hard with them and the Government to get them married.

This next month starting in December we are doing an activity in every ward-branch in the mission. It’s called the mormon Olympics, and what we are trying to do is to involve the members more in the work. So there is a point system in every ward that the members earn when they share a book of mormon with someone, takes somebody to the church meetings and many other ways. So hopefully all of the wards-branches in the mission get pumped up for this and work to show how good their area is and more than anything help with the work of the lord and bring more joy to the lives of other people and their own lives. That’s the thing in mission work, or just sharing the gospel with people. The person sharing also gets so much happiness from doing it. For example the work and the glory of god is to bring to pass the immortality and eternal life of man. When he see’s people come unto Christ and accept and remember why they are really here on earth in makes him happier than anything else you can think of. So for us It should be the same, as a missionary I have gained a lot more love for other people and through that have been happier.

So how was thanksgiving, mine was probably the worst I have ever had. No it wasn’t that bad it didn’t really hit us that it was thanksgiving until the night came. My comp made some noodles and put some tomato sauce on it and I cut up some cucumbers and put some in vinegar!

Thanks again for everything that you guys do!
Con Amor

Hey family how is everyone! This week was pretty show for us with the work, but we have gotten our zone pretty pumped up and we did really well this week. We travelled to Bahia Blanca this week for the meeting with all of the leaders that went pretty well we are starting a some new thing in the mission. My companion had something happen to his foot so we have been at the doctors a couple times. Ends up that he has herpes on his foot and it was a huge and swelled up. But he is on medication right now and it is getting better pretty fast. This morning we had to go in and he got his blood drawn out. This afternoon for p-day we are getting together again with the other zone here in Mar Del Plata and are going to play of course soccer and I think basketball too, that’s something we haven´t done for a long time is basketball.

We are heading into the last week of this transfer now, and wow how it has flown by.

I got a letter from a family that I had taught in my last area, It´s so awesome to hear from people. Really the biggest miracle that there are, are the changes that people make when they come to know about Christ.Sounds like Tawny is doing well being the little busy body that she is. Kenzie Congratulations on making the basketball team! That will be fun for ya.

Sorry I didn´t write much this week but my comp and I have so many things to do we are running around everywhere, we have one of the biggest zones in the mission.

Love you guys

Hey how is everyone doing, this week went pretty well. We had an amazing conference Saturday night, the rule was that if us missionaries didn’t have investigators we couldn’t go to the Saturday night session. The only reason that we went is for a miracle, We had somebody that said that they were going to go about a week in advanced so we were happy and content that we were going. During last week we passed by a few times but could never find her there. Saturday afternoon we pass by and her son comes out and tells us that she just went to do guard duty for seventy two hours at the jail so she wouldn’t be back for a couple of days. We were pretty down about that and headed back to the house. (it was during the lunch break) I made one phone call to someone that just popped into my mind that we weren’t even teaching at the time. To make a long story short she ended up telling us that she would go just before it started at seven o clock that night and we got there right before it started. The whole time we couldn’t believe that we were there, sure we could have gone anyway without investigators like some others did but we were honest, the lord blessed us and it turned into a good experience.

It was one of the best meetings I have ever been in. This meeting was for the two stakes joined together here but just for people eighteen years of age and above. First the two stake presidents gave little talks that went really well. Then we listened to Elder Bowen who is a seventy, Then we listened to Elder Spitale who is the brother of our President of the mission who is also a seventy. Then we listened to Elder Utchdorf for a long time. It was so amazing, he talked about so many things from the primary to the atonement. The spirit was so strong there, Elder Bowen at the end of his talk during his testimony he said the first vision and the spirit just waved over every person in the church. The Investigator (Liliana) had a lot of fun and liked it a lot. We are having a Family home evening with her tonight so we are excited. After the conference we went up to the front and we were talking to Elder Utchdorf in English and shaking his hand and everything, A man truly called of god. Then on Monday Our zone went to this really expensive place just to have breakfast because we heard that there was like an American breakfast with sausage and bacon and all so we went to go try it out. Yeah guess who we saw there, Elder Utchdorf. Breakfast with elder Utchdorf! He didn’t eat by us but he came over and talked to us for a second and was eating on the other side of the room. He was all dressed up like a normal guy, really the lord calls normal people but through their obedience he makes them powerful beyond belief. So that was a great experience to shake the hand of an apostle of god. I guess what happened is that there is a bishop in this stake that had a stroke so he is in the hospital unconscious, Elder Utchdorf and the others went there to give him a blessing. I guess everyone was feeling his presence their in the hospital and he was going wherever he wanted when they are usually really strict. We live right next to our stake president who was there at the time and he said that a guy went up to him and said that is a guy that is pretty high up in your church isn´t he, The Apostles are amazing!

Well I have got to get going but thank you for your letters and your love

Love you guys
Elder Lott
