De Diez in Rio Gallegos!

Aubrey in Rio Gallegos

Dear Friends and Family:

Bueno, this week was de 10!   Here´s why:
  • Pday we played a game called bigger or better. We had to trade a contacting card for something bigger or better. My team won! Want know why? Because we ended up with a freaking puppy!!! We couldn't find a home for it, so it slept in our pension. By slept, I mean it didn't sleep at all. It just stayed awake all night whining and going to the bathroom on the floor. We prayed so hard to find an owner and our prayers were answered. The next morning we were walking to district meeting with the puppy in our arms. A man said, "Wow, that´s a cute dog." We replied, "Yep. Do you want it?" He said yes, so we handed him the puppy and ran around the corner before he could change his mind. 
  • We also ate at Subway. 
  • This week Hna Sureda and I pounded out 100 contacts :) To make it more fun we decided to use keywords. For example, Hna Sureda had to use the word, "repollo (cabbage)" in her contact. It makes contacting a lot more interesting.
  • Also, speaking of contacts, we found a lot of people this week who said, "The elders used to pass by, but one day they stopped coming." We have a lot of future investigators to visit this week :)
  • Also, this week I completed 10 months in the mission. We are in double digit territory folks! I can´t believe just how fast the time is flying by. 
  • Cool fact: My comp´s dad and my dad served in the same mission at the same time. Wow! Aguante Viña del Mar, Chile!
This week was also mother´s day in Argentina. So, Happy Mothers day! <3

Challenge: Love your children. Treat them with respect and patience. It makes me sick to see how the majority of children are treated down here. Remember that we can´t enter into the kingdom of God unless we are humble like children. Bueno, I´m done ranting.

Love you all so so much!

Bonus fact: Río Gallegos is the 2nd city in the world with the most wind. I testify that this is true. :D
