Hi everyone,
I just want to say that the word "hi" sounds so weird...why do we even have that word? Anyways, last week was good and crazy! We were running running running with Conference and we also had exchanges!
On tuesday we had a super cool training for the missionaries of our branch. We had four of the most awesome hermanas come and we talked about how cool it is that we have the chance to share the gospel. We watched the video The atonement and missionary work, and almost everyone cried...it was so cool :) We´re working on coordinating splits, for the first time in my existance here!
We had a Zone conference on Wednesday, and it was really great. Our leaders are all really fantastic, and we always leave the meeting with more spring in our step for the work of Salvation :)
On Thursday we had exchanges with the Sister Training Leaders and that was way cool :) We visited a ton of people and also found a ton of new investigators! We had the chance to give out cards for the video of Gracias a que él vive (the video for easter), and we had a ton of success with that :)
Friday we ran and ran to get to all of the appointments we had from the day before, and we found a new investigator named Paula. She is 13 years old, but she loves talking to us, and she has already started praying about the message of the restoration and thinks that it´s true. She couldn´t come to conference because a bunch of her family ended up visiting for easter, but she is so awesome.
I loved Conference! All of Conference! But on Saturday night the internet in the church wouldn´t work, so we had to go to Ciber to watch the meeting. It was great because I got to watch it in English...It´s so much cooler to be able to understand perfectly what they´re trying to say...there´s something about hearing their voices and in your native language. Anyways, I loved the talk at the very end the most. He told a story of his uncle who carried a watch with the time in Utah during his time in the military. The idea was that he would always know what time it was at home, and what his family was up to. He wanted us to build strong families that we always want to be a part of and who are always involved in a good cause. It made me cry because my mom gave me a watch before I left, and to this day I still have the time that it is in Utah set in my watch in the secondary time. I am so blessed to have the family that I have, and I am so grateful to have this time to share this message with other people for a little while, so they can have the same happiness as me :)
Sunday we ran and ran to find people to bring to Conference, but we ended up with one less active of 12 years and her two little friends. It was cool :)
Monday we went to the zoo, and we were trying to go by train, but the problem is that we missed it...twice. In the morning, and in the afternoon, so we had to go by collectivo. One day I´ll get to experience the train!!! Maybe next week... Oh, we also did some shopping in the center of Córdoba. That was pretty awesome because there are tons and TONS of shops there! When I do my trunkee shopping, I´ll definitely stop by there ;)
Well, I hope that you all recieved the revelation that you needed and felt the spirit during conference, and that you all get the chance to search all the cool stuff you can about the Temple here in Córdoba! Coming soon! I wish you all the best, love you all, and have a wonderful Springy week :)
Cuídense,

Late night haircut :)
Hey, I forgot to tell you about the V-strom that I saw! it was smaller than dad´s, and a different color, but it had the boxes and stuff strapped on the back, and his wife was behind him! I didn´t get to talk to them, but it was so cool! It was definitely the same sound of dad´s motorcycle, and it reminded me of when he comes home in the mornings. I think there was a talk about that too in General Conference. Anyways, the point is, I haven´t forgotten what his bike sounds like!
Hey dad, if you feel like making a cool thing of all of the motorcyles we have I have a few people who would be interested in seeing it :) just an idea for your next adventure.
Love you all tons, and have a great week!
