Missionary Josh in Argentina

Hey everybody! This week was super great!! Elder Fields And I are working hard to meet our goals and this week we were able reach our attendance goal for church and for baptismal dates too, soo that is awesome!!! We had 8 investigators at church of which 7 have a date for their baptism... Of the 7, 5 have a date for before I come home... God is soo good. He really is the master of divine design in our lives, And I only feel grateful for him allowing me to be here in his great work, he is so good.  The Acosta family had their interviews for baptism on saturday, and will be baptized next sunday at 9 in the morning before church if everything goes well!! Lots of praying!! Tonight we are going to president allred's house with them to have a family home evening which should be the cherry on top of their journey towards baptism!! They came to church yesterday, and then yesterday we passed by with the young men's pres. and his wife who is the relief society pres. and had a pow

Hey, everyone :) This week was awesome saw some really cool miracles happen and a lot of tender mercies in the work.  The family of 4 came to church!!!!!!!!! and they are cruising towards their baptism! They understand so much and have felt the spirit testify of the truthfulness of the gospel! They watched the joseph smith movie, and they loved it. They all thought it was super sad... but they all felt the spirit. one of the girls in the family milagros 13, said that when she was watching it, that all the time she just felt more and more that she needs to be baptized :) she is only 13 but understands the spirit super well, and she is so integrated with the young woman in the ward! SO great! So that was good news, There was also a little bit of sad news too... a Brother in the ward passed away from kidney failure... he was from chile, but had lived in argentina for 40 years looking for a better life. he passed away saturday and we went to the idk what you call it... like a v

with Elder Fields again!!!! Lets Go!!!!!!!!!!!! And you'll never believe it... haha I love tomatoes now! I eat them plain or if I have onions, I'll eat them with onions!! Que Rico!! Hey everyone how's life going? :)   Sounds busy busy busy haha  me too! Lots to do and little time to do it, but this week was awesome! It's good being back with elder fields, ad this time as my comp and not a greenie... If I could have the opportunity to train again... which I won't have haha I would want to help the new missionary feel even more in charge, in the way of receiving revelation and acting for themselves. I would encourage that a lot more, instead of just doing everything for them because they can't speak the language... but Like I said it's a new dynamic now, We are equal partners and even more so, I'm helping him lead. This is his first time being zone leader, but is really prepared, and is teaching me things too!!! He's had a great mission so

Hey everyone!!!! Thanks for all the advice and plans :) And for all the letters and pictures!! 6 weeks... I'm still in azcuenaga but my comp is going to a different place called Venado Tuerto (One eyed deer) haha the argentines are funny with their names of cities and stuff haha buenos aires (Good airs) Rosario (rosary) Tierra de fuego (Land of Fire) and the list goes on.   This week was so great! There was a lot of challenges too, but just at the end of the week we were sooo blessed. We went to visit the Acosta family who are 4, and they all accepted the baptismal challenge to be baptized the 17 of feb!!!! The 4 of them! They committed to come to church, and then... Sunday (yesterday) They all showed up just before the sacrament meeting started... And so we had four people attend church, and they all have a date for baptism, we only lacked Roberto (he's 79) and he didn't come because he was sick.... but we went and visited him and read the book of mormon toge

We clapped alot of doors this week. probably like 40 a day almost... and then alot of people in the street. We are trying to find in a newer part of the area, and are experimenting a little bit in our contacts. We Were able to find 4 new people who want to hear the gospel this week and they have potential. Now we just have to explode their potential so that it doesn't stay as potential but that so they can grow to reach their potential! Thursday we had interviews with president and It we

Hola mi familia querida!!  Thanks for all the letters and the pictures! Castle looks Great! Haha a lot colder than it is here haha it's gonna get up to 38-40 degrees here with 80-90% humidity haha I'm gonna be drenched this week. This last week wasn't so bad, it rained a lot and so it was quite nice outside. We had a great week! We only had three days to work in our area but as always God Blessed us to be able to find people this week anyways to teach. We didn't work monday or tuesday because it was new years... but we took advantage of that and had our district council instead and planned our week!

We went from there to the apartment and we did an asado together!! A lot of meat... We each ate l
