Hola Familia y otros.

How is everyone doing? I am doing great. right now i am at tres cruces again. We went to this medical thingy in Montevideo to make sure all the oros are still healthy. I am. But it was really fun cuz i got to see all my district from the CCM again. They are all doing good in the areas, and like me struggling with number 1 the language, and number 2 the whole getting rid of the dinner thing. Urugugay is weird, but we all seem to be coping after these 3 weeks. Holy cow its been 3 weeks!!! Time goes so much faster out here than the CCM, and that time flew by too.
Sorry, mom that i havnt written in a while. I am planning on writing the everyone on the 3 hour bus ride back to Rocha. Every tuesday we give our letters and things to the District leader and he puts them in a box and ships it to Montevideo. But last week, we didnt recieve a box! So hopefully this week i get tons of letters.

And mom, i was thinking on what story would help for your talk. I came up with two good ones that i liked. The first is in Alma where ammon cuts off all the guys arms (ya i know every boy loves that story) but the good part comes after that. The servants return to the king and tell him all the crazy stuff that happens. Than the king says, well where is ammon, the guy who did all this miraculous stuff. He is feeding the horses. That was the task the servants were supposed to do after they watched the flocks. So even tho he did all that amazing stuff, he was still finishing everything, even the little things. And the second story is from 1 nephi 8. This is the chapter about Lehi s dream. He see s multitudes of people making there way to the tree to partake. I dont have my scrips so i dont know the exact wording but it says something like the held fast, no way they were gonna let go. And that makes me think of another elder who is coming the next change to this mission. He had a ring, it looked normal. it kinda even looked like a football championship ring or something. But on it, it says HTKW. Well what does that mean? Hold Tight Knuckles White. How tight of a saying is that. So in the CCM, that became kinda a cool slogan for us. And i want a ring like that. Well i hope that helps (smiley)

Not much else happening, you will here more from the letter all about baptism and investigator troubles. Love you all

i was going to send more pictures but this stinking computer is slow. Next week you will get all the cool pictures that i have taken of Rocha. Like 12 or so. But those 12 are full of fun and epic and awesome looking cows. You will enjoy it.

Love you
