If I had to describe this week it would be walking to the end of the earth and back. This area is huge!!! To help you find it on a map, it's Barrio Ayacucho Cordoba capital. It's the Cordoba capital of Cordoba it's the second or third largest city in Argentina. I have no idea how many people live here. The church is also very strong here in the capital. So my area is all city. I look from the top of our apartment and all you can see is city. There was about 80 people in church yesterday so it seems we have a lot of work with less actives that we can do. And a lot of incomplete families. For example we had a baptism on Wednesday, Ezekiel, a little 12 year old boy and the elders found him because his mom is on the list of inactives. His little sister Micaela went to the baptism and now she wants to be baptised to so we are helping her prepare for that. So sweet this family is, and when we talked to the mom Lorena, I really felt like the Lord sent us here for her. Oh and in the baptism the Elders told us it was all organized and it wasn't at all, so right before it started they asked me to give the talk about the Holy Ghost. Thank goodness for all the practice teaching people. We also had to teach the gospel principles class last minute. It was about the gathering of the 12 tribes. First off, I dont even know how to explain that in english let a lone spanish. All I can say is thank goodness for a latin comp.
It also changed from winter to summer in one day I swear this whole week has been like in the 30's. Crazy huh? It's hotter here than back home and it's winter here. Bring on the heat. Things with the new comp are great. She is a convert of seven years and teaches really well. Plus together we did good this week to only get lost once because the street names and the map names were different. Anyways I hope you all have a wonderful week.
Lots of Love Hna Potrie
