Hey mom. We had our P day reschedualed because today we had my last zone conference. It was a very surreal experience knowing it was my last. They always ask the departing missionaries to give their `last testimony`. I couldn`t believe I was up there at the pulpit. Such a rush of memories came flooding back. It`s almost like it was all a dream. I realized how much I`ve really grown and how close I`ve come to the Lord these last two years. I came here a little boy with such little knowledge of Jesus Christ and my Father in Heaven. I`ve been able to come so much closer to them through leaders, studies, and sharing my testimony with the people of Argentina. The best decision I`ve ever made in my life was to serve a mission. The best. With out a doubt in my mind. Every bit of success that I`ll ever have in life will be attributed to my mission. I wil cherish it for the rest of my life. Sunday was kind of cool. The stake president of the stake I`m serving in right now gave me a call (he doesn`t even live in our ward) and asked me to go with him to a different ward on sunday and give a presentation of the ward list clean out project that I`m doing under the direction of the area 70 presidency. I was flattered, and had to leave my companion behind with another member in our ward getting ready to go on a mission to tend to our investigator that was schedualed to come to church. I got to get to know the stake president pretty well, he`s a great guy. The presentation went well and afterwards we stayed for sacrament meeting and I got to get up and bear my testimony for the last time in an Argentine testimony meeting. It was a little weird doing it in a ward of people I didn`t know but I felt the spirit very strong. It was cool. Tomorrow we`ll be coming on to write you we just had a spare second here in the offices after conference and Hna. Lindahl was so nice enough to let me hop on for a sec. I`ll write you more tomorrow about a cool experience that also happened this week. Love ya!
