Well, my time in Mariano Acosta has come to an end. Tomorrow I´ll be going to Francisco Álvarez which is in the stake of Luján. My new comp will be Elder Nash. He´s from Utah too, I´ve met him once before and he seems like a pretty cool dude. I´m going to miss Mariano Acosta so much though. It´s really hard to leave. I can´t believe I´ve spent over 4 months here, it really flew by. Last night I visited la familia Flores (my first baptism). I told them I was leaving and they were pretty upset. Gabriela and her younger sisters drew a picture for me, it was pretty cool. They reminded me that I need to print off the picture from the baptism for them, so I´m going to do that today, which means I get to see them at least one last time. I think it´s going to be really hard. The older sister Sofia asked me if I had Facebook or Instagram that she could follow but unfortunately I don´t. I told her I´ll be sure to do that when I get back. I´m going to try and visit my other 3 converts today also.
I´m also going to really miss Elder Abrams. He´s one of the coolest dudes ever and we´ve had a good time this transfer. He´s going to be training someone new. We have a lot of great investigators and I´m sure he´ll be baptizing a lot in Mariano. He´ll be going to Utah State after the mission so we´ve decided we will meet again in the Taco Bell in Logan.
So yesterday for lunch we had an asado with familia Garcete for my last sunday and it was amazing. I don´t know if I´m mentioned this family before, but I´ve eaten lunch with them every sunday here. Anyway, we a TON of meat and it was amazing. I probably ate enough protien for the entire week. I´ll try to send some pictures of it.
Well, I´m sorry this is so short, but I honestly don´t know much more to say. It feels really weird to be leaving, this place feels like home. I´m sure I´ll have a lot more to tell you about next week about my new area and everything.
Until then, disfruten su semana.
