March 2024

 March was a very special month in our mission.  We started the transfer with a 40 day fast.  Where we fasted and prayed at the beginning of the month and asked the Lord what were the things we were doing that were keeping us from feeling more of His spirit.  We each made a personal list and for 40 days we worked to improve ourselves.  We saw MIRACLES happen.  The Lord blessed us with finding, teaching and baptizing a record number of friends.  In this process we were changed and became better disciples of Jesus Christ.  The hashtag for this transfer was #Marzoeselmes  (#marchisthemonth)    March 2024 will be etched in our hearts forever.   One of the many great miracles was this sweet family was found, taught, got married and baptized all within the transfer.  What a beautiful picture of a family all in white!  I can not wait to see a similar picture in a year of them in front of the temple being sealed together for eternity.   I love the opportunity we have to help change peoples lives forever!  It was also a tender mercy for our sweet Hermana Orme who served so faithfully and because of extreme arthritis pain had to go home a transfer early.  I can't help but think the Lord was blessing her for her great service.

We also welcomed 12 Los refuerzos and said goodby to 13 Los Fieles. It is amazing how the mission changes so much with each transfer yet the work of the Lord continues uninterrupted!  

Welcome Elder Bogren, Elder Comin, Elder Cope, Elder Harvey, Elder Isom, Elder Krepps, Elder Scott, Elder Milner, Hermana Arrieta, Hermana Barnum, Hermana Cabrera and Hermana Coppola

We had a pilot strike on the day our Los fieles were to leave to return home.   All flights were changed but we had to scramble to get the Los fieles to Neuquen from the south of our mission in time for there new flights.  So 4 of them missed the dinner.  But the most important thing is they all made it home safely to thier families.  We miss them and love them dearly. 

Thank you for you service Elder Harker, Elder Johnson, Elder Wheeler, Elder Sanchez, Elder Alarcon, Elder Hendricks, Elder Abadia, Elder Williams, Hermana Fernandez, Hermana Montiel, Hermana Orme, Hermana Balerezo and Hermana Rudd(not pictured).
