Le Amo Messi

Guys. I always have 8 million things to tell you and like two seconds to tell it all in.

We aren´t allowed to watch Mundial either. We have to stay inside. But, like Sarah said, we always know exactly what happens. It´s like the same as watching it I feel. 

In the last soccer game when Messi scored in the last minute our vecino was screaming at the top of his lungs, "LE AMO MESSI! LE AMO MESSI!!" He´s like 40 probably. People here are really passionate about futbol. It´s so cute though. Everyone has their Argentina jerseys and flags and faces painted.

THE REGISTRO CIVIL OPENED THIS WEEK. Which means that Fabricio and Marcela are getting married July 4th!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you so much for all your prayers for them. We are so excited. Best fourth of July celebration ever! ha

We had the farewell for the Heymans. Super sad. Our new mission president, The Francos, will get here and officially start being our mission president July 1st.

This Friday was Dia de Bandera here. So to celebrate, everyone and their pet goldfish makes Locro. The white handbook tells us not to write anything negative about where we are serving, so I´ll just let you google that. Seriously though. :) Milagros. We got out of eating Locro TWICE. In the same day. God answers prayers. 

I´ve been studying about Nefi and also about Ammon because we were trying to find "exciting chapters" digamos, for Fabricio to read because he was having a hard time getting into it. I can´t get over how cool Nefi and Ammon are. One of the things that they have in common is that they are both problem solvers. 

I always thought it was so funny when the sheep of King Lamoni get scattered and the siervos of Lamoni panic and start crying and Ammon's just like, "K, calm down. You start rounding up the sheep and I´ll go fight the bad guys."

A similar thing happens with Nefi when he breaks the bow and his family is a little dramatic and he´s like, "I guess you guys just cry while I make another bow and talk to God about the situation." 

Both these guys take control of the situation, make a plan and act. Presidente Heyman always says, "Plans plans plans. We follow the man with a plan." It´s important to make plans and follow through; act, and not be acted upon; and solve problems instead of accepting maldad. 

Have tons of fun at girls camp this week!!!

Love you all!!!!!!!!!
