ok so My new Companion is Named Elder Glad and from what he told me he is not related to any Glads in Cedar City but i think he looks like a Glad so who knows. he is from Orem utah and he has lived there in the same house his entire life. he has a twin brother that is serving in Argentina. He likes to work with Flim and wants to direct movies or maybe just be a carmea guy his not too sure at the moment. his been in the feild for one year and speaks good spanish and a little guaraní I`m very happy to have him as a companion and He cooks he makes Banna pancakes every morning its wounderful and today we made two baches of brownies and apple pie and a cheese cake if everything goes well we`ll have desrests all week and transfer long. i`m excitied to get to know him a little more here as we go along. OOO but funny story it was our thrid night here and it rained and rained and the dtreets were rivers and Elder Glad and i needed ot crossed so after hopelessly looking for a way to cross these rivers without getting wet we realized that there was no chances so right before i was about to try to jump to a dry piece of ground way out of my reach a man a littel short man told me to wait and then he stepped in front of me and told me to get on his back. on our thrid night here together Elder Glad and i got carried (piggybackride) across the street by a complete and utter stranger i had no idea who this Guy was but he carried us across and we continued on preaching and teaching the gospel. our goal for Bautism this week is three and it looks very promising that we will achieve this goal O random story again so Elder Glad and i Were teaching a lessona dn right in the middle of the Lesson my Nose strated bledding lucking i caught it before it got all over my shrit and luckly elder Glad had tolet paper so i stuffed it up my nose and continued teaching it was just very funny because all of a sudden my nose starting bleeding in a middle of a lesson they all told me it was becasue of the heat and sun and that we shouldnt walk so much in the suna nd i told them that the worth of souls is greater then a little heat and a bloddy nose.
ANywhoo hope evrything is going were and that you are all Happy healthly and wise LOVE YOU ALL VERY MUCH

Just a few things that i´ve done this week, friday i bought a leg of a crocodile (croc) from a guy carring it on a stick his son was carring pairahan ( that fish that eats everythign in like 2 seconds) i for soem reason was feeling a little crazy so i bought one leg for 60mil about 12 dollars it weighed 3kilograms about 7lbs and today i decide to cook iot but i have no idea how to cook croc so i just threw it into the oven with seasoning and covered it in tin foil and lefted it on low while we lefted to come do email so we´ll see what it looks like here in 20 minuets. hopefull the house didn´t burn down.
This week was been good i have two investigadores that are amazing that are stopping to smoke and do drugs one has been smoking for 28yrs about 25 a day and this past week he only smoked 5 and the other was at about 70 a day becasue he smoked instead of doing crack but this pat week he smoked only like 70 in a week i know that when we pray read and go to churcha nd invite the lord to take away your pain adictions and worries we will do it but it most be done with full intenction of heart we can´t hold yourself back from teh lord becasue he will always respect our angency our ablilty to choose and if we choose not to go to him he cant lift us up or health us in every case that Jesus did a mircile FIRST they come to Him and we must do teh same if we want to see miritcle in our own lifes.

First off I got the CAre package from Aunt Pam and Mom and the rest of the family aswell as a chritsmas card in spanish from the familia. THe care package was amazing It was packed so well that not even one cookie broke i was very impressed i was a litte thrown off by the random pieces of bread that were hidden with the cookies but i figure they had some prupose. i am so very grateful that i have a familia as amazaing as you are that care enough to send love and COOKIES THANKS YOU AUNTIE PAM got the box last friday and i may have like half of the cookies left but don´t worry i shared with my companion a little i think i gave him a half a cookie or so. jk he got a whole one but only ONE!!¨:) we had zone conference this friday as well it was amazing i loved it we didnt have any special speakers but the whole conference was on caridad and faith and the Power of God. it was a real boost for me there are so many amazing things we can laern from Moroni 7 Ether 12 and alma 32 Moroni 7 is my favorite by far The words of Mormon are like Firey love daggers right to the heart, but the best part by far was to end every zone conference the Elders that are going to leave in the coming change get a chance to bear thier ¨final Testimonio¨ their testimonios were amazing and i hope that when i leave my mission i cant look back and say i have no regrets i did my best and I WIll keep the faith.
So this friday, i have to tell you about my companion, he recieved a package but i didnt know who it was from i figured it was from his family no más. so has we were walking home from the zone confernce, its about an hour ride in the us and about a 15min walk to your house from the bus stop, he told me he was fighting wether or not to open right now as we are walking and i told him go for it i was a little confused why we couldnt wait till we got home back Hey a package is very exciting, so he opened it in the street and didnt say much of anything. But we got home and we openned my package together and i shared what i recivied and then ask so what was in your package and he starts to pull out valetine candy and other gifts and i firgure o how fun his family likes to celebrate every hoilday but then i came to realize that this packeage was from his girlfriend!! i knew he had a girlfriend but we had never talked about it much but she sent him a Tape that she had recored her voice on and it is an hour and 20 minuets long!! and i realized no wounder why he could wait it was a valentine box from his girlfriend they have been in touch every week through email and they send tapes back and forth to each other Talk about CUTE right!! so now i just give him a lot of crap all the time about it but in a loving way as companions should. elder Glad is a great Elder wants to do whats right and has a testimony doesnt talk much but yup its been alot of fun.
Talk about time flying by this change is almost over already i feel like i just got to together with elder glad and here the 14th i´ll most likely, like 97.34% likely, be leaving Del Maestro and Elder Gald. Well as of right now i dont have any time but Thanks again for the package and all the love and support i know that this church is true and if you have any doubts all you have to do is ask God its that simple.
Love you Good luck with school work CF life boys Girls you are all a huge inspiriation to me stay good looking like uncle david
