Hola - November 7th

Well, another p day and unfortunately we are wasting it on doing an asado. We are actually doing Internet across the street from the church in la valle while other people are cooking the meat. It is going to take awhile. Still it will be the first asado I have had. I don´t plan on having many more. Still, I think I am liking meat more than i ever have in my life up to this point.
We worked hard this last week contacting a bunch of references that we recieved that were all scattered around our area. We are just about done with all that now. Unfortunately we still didn´t really find any great familias to teach, but perhaps some of these references will turn out well when we get to go back. I sure hope so. We have been working really hard to organize our area too. We organizad the area book quite thouroughly now and are analyzing where we need to work more. We are going to try and concentrate on a section that has a bunch of members in it so that we can worked with the members easier. I am already seeing that it is going to bless the work.
We had a great division yesterday. I was with Elder Vega in my area and he really helped me out a lot. I sometimes feel so ineffective. There is go much we need to apply as missionaries and it is hard to do it all. Still, I am bettering myself little by little.We also had interviews with the president this week and I feel like I will probably be staying here in Villa Cabello with Elder Ortega another transfer. I have mixed feelings about that, but if it is where the Lord needs me than I guess I am okay with that. Nothing is for sure right now anyway. We will have to wait and see what happens.
The baptism we have planned seems to be coming along quite well. Nahuel and Natividad were working on getting married and I am hoping that they had success. We need to talk with them again. Other than that they are really looking prepared for the baptism of Natividad.Well, I don´t really have much to say this week and am going to head back to the church here. Love you all and hope you have a great week.
Love,
Elder Aaron McDonald
P.S. Mom I loved the quote it made me feel good. I don´t know how you always find such great quotes but thanks.
P.S.S. I was happy to hear about grandma as well. I am still keeping her in my prayers so that she can stop smoking. I know she will do it with the Lord´s help.
