See You Soon

Well this is the last letter I will write here in Mendoza. I have no idea what is going on. My brain can´t get around the fact I´ll be leaving Mendoza tomorrow.

As far as our area goes, Nacho came to church. He´ll probably be getting baptized here in a couple weeks. My companion, Elder Banks, got transfered too. They closed Maipu B and the other Elders have all of our investigators and our whole side of the area.

I can´t really describe the mission in words... You just gotta go out and serve to see what it´s like. I love Argentina and I´m going to miss it a whole lot. I´m going to miss being a missionary and teaching the restored gospel to strangers. It´s so weird.. like you sit there and think that the end of the mission is coming your whole mission..... and now it came. I know that the gospel it true and people that live it are blessed. 

I wanted to thank my family for all the support and letters these past 2 years. You guys are awesome. I looked forward every week to going to the cyber and writing. It´s been fun. I got you some goodies hahah.

Jesus Christ lives. Serving him was the best decision I´ve ever made and I´ll continue to serve him throughout my life.

I could go on and on but there´s too much to say. I´ll see you all soon.

love,

Getting Down to the Wire...

I´ve started the last week of my mission. I don´t know if I´m going to be able to write a letter next week so this may be the last.

We were able to find a cool family yesterday called the Familia Colombo, who seem really nice. We found them knocking doors and taught the restoration yesterday. We managed to have some success with Ignacio, because he came and played soccer with the youth on Wednesday, but he proceeded to hide from us in the weekend to avoid coming to church. Oh well. 

On Saturday we had an asado with the zone for all the people who sang in the choir in stake conference. We played some serious foosball (table soccer), and me and Elder Gato against all odds beat Elder Banks and Elder Keyes in like the 50th grudge match haha. It was like the Jazz beating the Warriors these days I guess.

My mission, to be honest, has flown by. I cannot believe it´s all coming to an end this upcoming week. I just keep on denying it. It´s crazy how the time has gone, I´m gonna miss Mendoza really bad. But it´s been fun. I think I´ll write more about this next week if I can, but I gotta stay focused for this week haha.

Well have a great week everyone!

love,

Elder Anderson
