we had a great week in san rafael.
mother nature in southern mendoza has been quite the bi-polar lady lately. we have been seeing changes in weather and in success. just like our showers, our goals are broken too. that´s right, san rafael beat its baptism goal for the first time in almost three years. you know what that means? it means im a great leader...no, just kidding. but our missionaries and our new and improved way of leading the zone is working! thank you Heavenly Father. me and my new comp have been on the same page since page one and our way of getting missionaries pumped is just as equal as our taste of music. i guess you could say our way tof doing the missionarry work and meeting its goal has been very influences by our advertising, marketing and visual taste. with our posters and two hour long converstations about the physcology behind missionary work, we have been able to do somethings. i don´t say any of this to make me look good, of course, but the Lord has blessed in ways unforseen. it has been good. we have felt good. for september, we have also put in the new slogan and signs for the zone this month creerlo. hacerlo. san rafael.
 
 i will send you a picture later (: it has been fun. this friday we get to go to consejo and see all the zone leaders again. it is feeling weird knowing that i will be one the oldest missionaries there...the next group to leave (:  me and my comp might be getting a long too well. but its good because we are both pushing each other to be more obedient...even with tiny stuff. like sometimes i will start humming or singing a michael buble song in the street, and even though he loves michael buble like i do, he will start singing a hymn. so then i just start singing michael buble versioned hymns. haha, it´s weird. but it´s cool. you guys understand me (: haha. anyways, we have been doing good.
pray for the family herrero. they are a great family and we consider them gold. me and my comp found them cleaning their windows and they let us in. when they invited us to sit on the leather couches (it´s been a looong time) all the kids came over with chairs and sat like perfect little argentine kids and listend to us. the mom was like..."okay, whats your message all about". (gold silence...) and they are doing great. we gave them lesson "0"....which is just starting teaching and heling them understand what we do and we even give the charlas. it was a great week. the zone broke the goal and we are happy but obviously not satisfied because a new month comes and that means just as more work, and especially more (: thanks for everything guys. have a great week!"
