I’m sure I say this a lot, but THIS was the best week of my mission so far; it was soooooo good. To start it all off at the beginning we had a great zone conference. At the lunch break president took us all to Carmens, which is a pretty nice restaurant in the city and we could basically order anything that we wanted, so I got some sort of pork chop thing. This zone conference was great because I got the chance to see a lot of people I haven’t been able to see in such a long time. I got to see Elder Ruiz and we got a chance to catch up at Carmens. Thankfully he is doing just great. After the zone conference Elder Franco got all his stuff packed up and a remis came to pick him up and he got sent to the offices. The funny thing is he left around 7pm and it takes about 30 minutes in a remis to get to the offices, so just before 9:30pm as we are getin back to the pench I get a call for the secretary and there all freaking out, like asking when did Elder Franco leave because they couldn’t find him. (Elder Franco was sent to the Ramos Mejia at a place other than the offices without a phone hahah) Thankfully in the middle of the night they were able to find him and he got home all good.  At the same time Elder Burk came in to replace Elder Franco. Elder Burk just finished his training a few weeks ago so now he is finishing Elder Garcias last few weeks of training. This all means that in total our experience as missionaries in time, is less than 2 years with all of our time combine between the four of us hahaha. So I feel a little like I’m training three missionaries but thankfully they’re all hard working guys and we all get along great. We also got a ton of investigators getting baptized this month and yesterday we had the stake conference of Marcoz Pax so all these people came to speak like the temple president and his wife, president and hermana resek and this seventy named Elder Salas so it was a super awesome day! Carlos (one investigator who is the head of his member family and is getting baptized just before Christmas) went up to President Resek after the meeting and straight up asked him to do his baptism!!! President Resek was pumped for it, I was pumped for it, Elder Bullock was pumped for it and so we were all pumped for it and we are all still pumped for it. We even had our ward missionary leader go and get a baptismal date for December from an investigator that rejected our first invitation! super awesome. Pday was also good this week and it was pretty chill Elder Bullock and I just played chess the whole day. loving the mission. I hope you guys are doing great back home have a great week!
