Hola

Sounds like all is well and a little bit crazy. So they moved the ward to the South Stake? That seems a little weird. Is that my room?? haha I don't even recognize it. Well the last week here, its pretty strange. i bought a whole bunch of mate today to bring home haha, I think the more part of my luggage is going to be taken up by the mate. I have one request for you and that is that you make me an appointment with a Chiropractor for when i get home because I'm  pretty sure my back and whole body for that matter is thrown out. My body feels like its in its 70´s. :) Michelle wrote me today and asked how much time i have left in the mission... i sent her a message that went something like this hahahahahaha... 7 days. Nextly I´ll be sure to get pics of the house dont worry. Well see ya in a week.   Chowsitos los quiero -Elder Stewart

Hola, 

They still haven´t sent me anything about flight plans so good to know...maybe they don't tell us that stuff until we get to the offices.  That's good to hear that Rob did well with his talk, I didn't know that he was serving in Guatemala. I´ll make sure to get lots of pics as well these last two weeks.
 
This past week was a bit of a hot downer. I got sick Tuesday and was sick the whole week until Sat morning after my comp and Elder Arias gave me a blessing Friday night and I pretty much hopped up out of the chair healed ! Sunday we received 2 references in church from members of the other branch and we met with them the same day. It was a great lesson and the same member accompanied us to teach. So there is still hope. One more P-day and chow, Its going by super fast this transfer. All is well here except the ridiculous amount of heat. 
 
Well talk to ya next week.

Hola, 

Sounds like all is well after a long week of work. Things are quite interesting here at the moment the branch here has many struggles and its a constant fight to keep it up and running. This month is the month of whats called the ¨corso¨ where all the dance groups go out every weekend fri, sat and sun to dance through the streets all night something similar to the party that was being had when Moses came down from the mount after recieving the 10 commandments. Other than that all is well and Elder Reyna and i keep in truckin. Well got to go the power went down a minute ago and i lost half of what i wrote so talk to ya next week, have a great week. 
Los quiero muchos- Elder Stewart

Hola,

Good to hear tha things are busy and that you got the floor all in. Things here have been really slow this week. we had to pretty much kick out all the investigatores that we have had for a while because they aren´t keeping any commitments that they make. So we are back on the big open hunt for chosen investigator. Though the work hasn´t been so great my studies this week have been very edifying. I have been watching this new bible videos that they recently made and they´re super awesome. Also chap. 93:1-39 of D&C has been my meditation of the week. We had some other good experiences this week doing service and all but i dont have time to write everything.

Until next week Los quiero mucho-Elder Stewart

Hola, 

Yup Elder Alvarenga left for Salta last night at 2am so the four of us went to send him off in the terminal last night. Yes he´s the one from Wash. DC. It was a late night i think we got to sleep at about 3:30am, And thus it has begun my last transfer of the mision. Elder Reyna stayed here in Tartagal with me, so he´ll be sending me home and Elder Arias stayed as well. He will be getting a newbee to train in the mission on Wednesday, so Reyna and i feel a little bit lonely in the house until he gets back with the newbee Wednesday night.
 
Not much else to say for now a bit of a slow week though we did find a few good new investigators. I think we should be able to baptize a few this last transfer and we´re still in the hunter for more new investigators The old ones that we have arent progressing and so its come time to drop them for now. Oh i almost forgot a notable occurance from yesterday. We ate cow head in a members house.... its was an interesting experience :) and I also tried Cow brain!...these people are crazy here. I forgot my camera so i dont have a pic to send you but Alvarenga took a few so get into my facebook and see if you can find him his name is Gabriel Alvarenga im sure he´ll upload the photo.

Alright until next week, Los quiero mucho-

Hola,
Yeah there were some good fireworks for the new year but not as awesome as it was in Tucumán last year. We were together the 4 of us in the house on new year so it was a good one. All is well here. Unfortunatley we didnt get to baptize Javier but I'm sure he´ll do it in Buenos Aires he´s a great kid just has a closed minded family in the catholic sense. This is the last week of the transfer and then my last transfer begins... scary..Elder Alvarenga goes home in 7 days so this weeks going to be a little crazy for sure. I dont remember if I told you but I got two nativities bought. One for you and one for Grandma. I also bought myself a cool ¨Mate¨ pronounced Ma-tay I'll send you a pic...its what they drink here when they get together as families and things. its like a herbal tea.
 
Well I think thats all for now. hasta la próxima semana.
los quiero-Elder Stewart
