Martes: Today we had district meeting which went well followed by lunch, after that we went and visited lucy who will be getting bapttized this week as well, she seems super prepared. Then we went around contacting because no one was home until we went over to the familia aquino. That went well then we went to lorena to visit her, that went well, afterwords we swung by ortencia, who is super awesome, she has the best desires but wants to wait until the new year starts to get bap`tized, we are working with her to help her do it a little sooner if she can, becuase we know the blessings that come from it, but it went really well. 

Miércoles: Today was good went on a division with elder Whitaker mfrom las vegas. hes pretty cool, we had a good and really busyt day we went and talked to an old lady in our ward who goes every sunday to find out who we should go visit, after we had a great lunch followed by visiteing alejandra a less active member that is making a comeback, then we went and met these 4 new cool kids but that didnt go to far, after that we found 2 pretty cool new investigators and then visited eva and fabiola, after which we visited liz and eva, followed by going to karina who is getting closer and closer tobaptism. after that we made the switch back of campanions.

Jueves:  left the house a year ago today!! crazy!!! we did our weekly planning this morning and then went and had a good lunch with the familia lopez. after that wqe ran to the church to drain the baptismal font and then got to work, we went and visited alba, the lady from monday we taught, followed by lucy who is super ready, then we contacted abunch until we went and visited ortencia, that went well, after that we went and found a less active family that has a husband whos not a memebnr, and he was super cool, we had a really good lesson and he seems super cool, it just looks like it will be hard to find him at home. 

Viernes: (got to argentina and technically started my mission today.. pick your own year mark...) Today we had the keys to the church so for ouur exercises this morning we played basketballs with the other elders of the chapel, we played 21 and you best believe that your boy represented the 509 proudly afterword we cleaned the baptismal font, got ready for the day and then did a division with those elders so that i could do baptismal interviews and the other elder could do baptismal interviews. i went to y´bera with elder Muñoz. our day went really well we taught a lot of lessons and he is a really good missionary. we werent able to do one of the interviews becuase she was working so we scheduled it to be at the church the next morning. The other interview went really well, it was a memeorable one, and should be a good baptism. afterthat we made a switch back and then called it a night. 

Sábado: Got to play basketball again this morning, walked away with the title again ahahahah. then we studied and went back to the church where i did the baptismal interview for jaquliene.. it went really well after that we went and taught a lesson to elías, he is super cool ,a ten year old of a pretty active family. then we made our own lunch preped the baptism and made brownies. Then we had ourselves a beautiful little baptism. it was super good. afterwords we went and visited lba, then the silvero family and then went and talked to eva, decided that we would do a fast for her family in the coming week, and then ate some lo mito arabe! got home bein cansado.

Domingo: Today we had 64 people in church, 2 less actives and then we had 3 investigators, not to mention that both lucy and karina were able to get confirmed. it was great! i did get to teach gospel priciples class and gave a talk in church. I gave it on being diligent and consitent in living the gopspel, it went alright. after church we had lunch and then went and visited lucy and leslie, her sister in law that wants to get baptized now, hermando, the boyfriend of karina, who could potentially get baptized soon as well, then swung by ortencia had a super good lesson, she didnt go to church today because she was sick, then we had a good lesson with liz and eva. liz will be getting baptized this next weekend as long as everything goes to plans! good day.

Elder Phiuppen will be saying good bye to one of his favorite areas, thats why we worked in the morning, because people dont get home from work until night. its been a good day...
