September 2, 2013

Family, This week was quite an interesting week. Tuesday morning I got a phone call from the assistants to the president and the asked me what time of the day was going to be the least busy for us. They then informed us that an Elder who was waiting for his visa from spain got here and the Lord was sending him to our area haha. So now we´re in a trio. Me, a chileno, and a spanish. We all speak so differently in spanish and different vocabularies but we´re starting to understand each other haha. On wednesday we found a new investigator. He lives in another part of Argentina, but is here for a surgery and he´s giong to be here for 3 months. He is marreid to the daughter of the first guy that I baptized here in Palermo, he has a lot of desires to follow christ, but his wife doesn´t like the church so he´s never had the opportunity. This week was his first time going to church, and he really enjoyed it. he is reading the book of mormon and also the pamphlets we have been leaving hima bout the restoration and the plan of salvation. Our next appointment with him will be tomorrow and we´ll be able to see what else he´s feeling. We also found another investigator named Teresa. She went to an evangelist church, but said she was looking for something differnt. She happens to be the mom of Jahaira´s (the last girl that got baptized) step dad. We invited her to be baptized, and in her prayer after taht she started crying and said in her prayer that she believes that this is what she´s been looking for. The best thing of all of this was that the ENTIRE FAMILY went to church on sunday!!! Jahaira, her mom, her step dad, everyone! It was so great! I love seeing entire families together in the chapel its such a great site. I´m excited to be working in a trio and learn a little bit more about ethpaña. I know this is the true church and that the work needs to be done more and more rapidly. I know that if we read and pray every day the Lord will reveal to us the things that we need to know and do to be better children for Him. I love you! Thanks for all your prayers Love, Elder youngmoney Johnson :)

Pouch Mail is a service provided by the church. It is delivered by private courier and is the best way to guarantee delivery. The problem with pouch is that it can only be a post-card or one page letter written on only one side. The letter has to be folded a specific way. Here are the folding instructions:

Lay the letter blank side down. Fold the bottom of the letter about one-third of the way up the page and crease. Fold the top of the letter to the bottom of the first fold and crease. Secure the long side with two pieces of tape about one inch from each end, but do not seal the ends. In the top left corner write your name and complete return address. Affix first class postage in the top right corner. In the middle write the missionary address as written above.
