Lucio & his car accident just before baptism






















Ha! wow crazy stuff happening at home. Congrats Jackie on the first one-on-one date. That's really funny what happened to you. [She went on a date with a guy she met at a tri-stake youth dance who drove 90 minutes to pick her up for a date to 6 Flags amusement park....and who chatted non-stop] I remember something like that happening to me except it was a blind date and the girl didn't even talk to me.
Anyway this past week was crazy. Yesterday we had an appointment with our fecha [our person committed for baptism] who was supposed to get baptized this yesterday at 430 in the church. We got there and started waiting and waiting and waiting... so we tried calling but nobody answered. Eventually the girlfriend answered her phone but she sounded kinda out of it. She told us that right after church they got in a car accident and Lucio, our fecha, was now in the hospital and that an artery in his neck was cut from the accident. So that was kinda rough news. They are in our prayers. This morning when we called them they said they would both be OK. So that was reassuring.
Another thing that happened this past week was when we did this contact with a guy at a bus stop. Right when he called us over I smelled marijuana. Well it turned he was the one that smelled of marijuana but he wants to stop smoking weed. So we got his address and said we would pass by another day. It was interesting.
Here are some pics from last week at the temple and some pretty skies in Buenos Aires.
I'm way excited for the calendar you are sending and everything.
Other than that I got to go. Hope everything is great up there. You're all in my prayers.
Love you all so much
