Hey today I broke my nose playing around on the beach, I got a nice elbow to the nose. We went and got x-ray and then they sent me to a specialist, but we are here in San Antonio and there is no specialist here so tomorrow we will go to the one in Viedma or maybe Bahia Blanca. It´s not to bad just a little crooked, It´s not anything like Owen Wilson just a little bump. But I will keep you posted on how it goes.

Love you guys

Hey thanks a lot for all of those pictures, it looks like you guys and doing a lot together and having a lot of good clean fun!

Today I am in San Antonio Oeste for our last p-day of the transfer and we are going to head down to the beach to play some American football here in a couple of minutes so that will be fun. Saturday we had our activity with volleyball and futbol, my companions cousin came to the activity because she was passing from down south to go up to Buenos Aires so that was kind of weird to have here there but it was cool for him. Actually my companion is heading home this next week so I will find out how I get to finish off the mission. We had interviews with president Spitale this week, then after we had a meeting with the district president and president Spitale. The district president was frustrated, Pres. Spitale helped him out and we are progressing here in Viedma!

Well I will come back and send you guys some pictures that I take today at the beach. Hey I love you guys you guys are awesome!

Love Elder Lott

Hey family sounds like you guys enjoyed an awesome week. We had a pretty decent week here too. Yesterday we had three people show up at church so that was good, they asked me to give a talk again because they were one short, I just talked about all the blessings we receive being in the church, but it was a good sacrament meeting our branch president and district president both talked too and I enjoyed their talks. My companion and I are singing in the District choir, the district conference here will be my last week. Yesterday it was great José received the Aaronic Priesthood and my very last week they are planning for him to receive the Melchesedic Priesthood!! He had an interview with the president and they were talking about him serving a mission and all, it´s so awesome to see a kid just grab onto the gospel and run with it, you can definitely see the blessings that are flowing into his life because of it.

We also got this fourteen year old kid named Lautaro, such a stud, all the kids here seem like they are older than they really are. But with Lautaro he has a little problem with smoking, we started teaching him and we taught him about the word of wisdom and he´s a great kid and really wanted to stop smoking. So we talked through it with him and made a plan to drop smoking and start running more, eating more hard candy and most important reading the scriptures and praying for help. Of course, It is working!!! He really went at it and was dropping half everyday and now he is down to only two. He has got a baptism date now, he has got a good mark to work for and prepare himself.

It warmed up this week again and I am still in shorts and short sleeve today so that’s good.

Well thanks for everything that you guys do, until next week!

Love you guys

Hey Family hows i going, I am glad to hear that the warm weather is now coming in there. These last couple days here have been really cold, one day this week we went out and worked in the morning and it was nice and warm and then after lunch we went out and it was freezing and it had been that way ever since. But today is nice the sun is out. So it seems that I will be having cold weather until the end.

We found a couple more teenager kids that are listening to us right now. One of them came and played soccer with us at the church and then made it to church on Sunday too. So we are pretty pumped up with him. Viedma is awesome with finding teenagers! Also this week we crossed the river and went and worked in the area next to ours called Patagones, that branch doesn´t have missionary´s right now so we went and visited some people and some references. They are always telling us they need missionaries over there and to talk to our president about it. Our president came and told them that if the area gives off fruits, or in other words baptisms, then he will take missionaries out of an area that isn´t and put them in there. Since then the
people over there have been trying to gather up references for us. So we will see how it goes, it really is a great place I would actually love to dedicate and just work there next transfer.

It´s good to hear about the friends and what they are doing. Some of my buddies here from the misión that have already finished are going to Florida to do that comcast selling stuff and they put my name in there too if I wanted too. I´m not sure, just trying to have some options when I get home and then pray for the best.

But the work is going well we need to find more people that are ready for it. They are out there. We had a nice fast Sunday yesterday with some good testimonies. I was sitting there thinking about our testimonies and listening to all of the things that are in our testimonies and all of the knowledge that we have about things like eternal families, prayer, personal revelation, holy ghost, repentance, gods plan, the priesthood, Prophets, covenants, there are so many things that god has placed here to help us out. With just that Little list we should never go wrong, but we do and it hurts but that is part of learning.

Well I hope you guys have fun this week with all of your activities! It would be good to hear from the sisters again! Thanks for everything that you guys do.

Hey I am finally writing you guys this week. The activities and the big p-day that we had together went well we had a lot of fun. We had a lot of basketball and soccer going all day so at the end of the day everybody was dead. We went back to the church at night and we all had some pizza and listened to a talk from one of the Stake Presidents in Bahia Blanca. Yesterday we had a good conference, it was been a pretty big weekend for conference. Added all together through the weekend I think we had a good sixteen and a half hours of conferences.

But the conference was awesome wasn´t it? It still amazes me how perfect the church is and how the Lord runs it through his servants. President Monson is really going to be a great prophet and also some great counselors and apostles. That last session we had really topped things off with some great straight forward ¨rapid fire¨talks. The Priesthood session here went from nine until eleven but we stayed at the church and watched it anyways. Yeah we had a tv set up downstairs in one of the rooms so I watched it all in english. This spirit is always so powerful listening to the well prepared talks from conference. It makes you think how lucky and how blessed we are in this world of many to have our testimonies and for many of us having been born into a home with the gospel. The work of the lord is so powerful and will always go on whether we want to be a part of it or not.

We had a couple people to some of the sessions for conference, also some of them didn't ever show up. The eighteen year old kid that just recently got baptized went to every single session, he is a complete stud. We went over to his house and started talking to him about mission work and he said that he has already been talking to another kid about it and then he brought him to one of the conference sessions and set up an appointment with him to meet with us. He has definitely got the fire and is going great as a new member.

I love you guys I hope everything is going good, It´s still warm here the cold hasn't set in yet. Talk to you soon
