this week we had a fireside with all of the members of presidents family and the 3 zones of montevideo and some less actives and investigaters and converts. It was a really great theme of families are forever. there was someone president baptized 30 or so years ago and she then went inactive he got he last year got her active again. and then got the family all baptized and also to the temple it was a real testiment theat we are her on the mission to bring families together and to make them the happies that they can be. that is only for the blessings of the faily. and the temples. with out the work in the temple for the dead and the attonment means nothing to the people who were not baptized and also for us with out the temple we can only progress so far. i brought a few of the names which i have found in family search. it was cool to thoink that his salvation was held in a little paper that i printed of with his information that i could take to the temple. and that his salvation was trusted with me it can be trusted with all of us as well but it is true that we can do the work for others.

we had a good turn out in the temple we had 24 wich was pretty good for our ward.

a thing i was studing in the book of mormon this week was in 3 nephi 11 and when God is introducing Jesus Christ he saysBehold my Beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased, in whom I have glorified my name—hear ye him.

i was thinking what would God say about me if he were to introduce me. what would he say he was well pleased with me. why or why not. it is something we need to all think about in our lives would God be pleased with what we are doing.

we are also planning for a activity in the ward it is a flight to paradice. but the plane crashes and you go through all the different kingdoms and you learn how missrable the first few are. how there is no such thisng as families.

the washer and dryer is so much better then hand washing cloths. clean clothes all the time. no more scrubbing on rocks. haha 

this week we have a mission conference with the other mission and with elder christensen. we also have a stake priesthood meeting with him the night before. so that should be good to get a double dose of him and to beable to learn  alot from him. 

yesterday the two biggest soccer teams in uruguay played. national and peñarol. and when ever someone scored they let of fireworks and i am on the 8th floor and live a apartment complx with a similar layout with heleman halls but a little closer together. and they lit the fireworks in the middles. so the fireworks go off and expload about where i am at. its was fun to watch them.

when these two teams play it is always nuts. 

but othere then that this week was good i learned a lot about what our purpose is and the purpose of the church in the earth. to untite families
