Its kinda been a long week this week but super busy down here so I guess that's all good,
We had interviews with the President and his wife this week that was good. My interview started out with the President saying Elder Seamons "I know that this may seem hard right now but you and I both know you've done much harder things in you life and this first little bit may seem hard but we both know its nothing to what you've done in your life.´´´ so that caught me off guard
Then we had a wedding this week.. we just baptized M... and wife and M.... had a problem with smoking and drinking.. a bad problem he's thirty and his wife is 18. M would smoke close to 40 pluse a day and in one week he went from 40 to 2 a day and the next week he stopped cold turkey!! No lie a Miracle!! I'm really close with M he's a really good guy. He calls me his white brother.. they live in a card board hut and really no lie have no money at all!! I gave him one of my normal t shirts I had. I've never seen a grown man look at me like he did and cry of joy and hug me so tight! He's really funny and just loves joking around, that's how I get along with people is just make jokes and have fun with people. We have to remember that people have life's too and don't just live like us missionary's do everyday.
And one of are converts this week. Brother L gave the priesthood to another one of are converts Brother C. that was super super cool.
Then I had to go to Chaco to do my paper work Me and Elder Gowans went to fill out paper work to get are DNI which is our ID for here... most the missionary's here haven't done that but they had us do it... once i get my ID I'll be a Argentine so that's kinda cool. It was like a 3 hour bus ride and we just sat and talk in Spanglish most the time. We bought a pizza and split it. and I don't know it was kinda cool cause we had to get there and both of us don't really speak much Spanish but we made it there and back! That was a long day getting up at 3 a.m. to catch a bus, but I enjoyed it cause Elder Gowans was my companion for the day it was pretty freaking awesome!! . But yeah just another hot day down here in Argentina things will all work out
Love Elder Seamons
