Transfers today!

Hey family!! :) Well on Monday we had P-day and we played a lot of soccer!! Which has been so great :) I love that so much! I have a lot of fun with that. On Tuesday we had interviews with the mission president in Pergamino. So we traveled a few hours as a zone and we got there in the afternoon. There was a lot of waiting haha, but before he talked to us as a group about our zone and how bummy it has been, and how we need to do specific things in order to change and be better. It was awesome!! Whenever President Giuliani talks I want to listen and do what he says haha. He is really good at pointing out what needs to change and be serious, but also be loving and humorous. It has been really neat to get to know him a little better :) After that we just went back home. We ended up getting back late so we didn't do anything that day :P haha but it was a great day! This week was the birthday of Danilo! Who we baptized a few weeks earlier. He's a stud! We weren't able to do much for him because he´s been studying a lot for school, but he was able to go to a grill hangout sports thingy with the young men in the branch. So it was really good! So pretty neat story, remember Jose Luis? He was the number one boxer in Argentina at one point! And his nickname is chocolate! I have no idea why haha but that's pretty cool :) Well his sister´s husband died. I guess his sister has been receiving the lessons from other missionaries in our zone for a while, but her husband wouldn't let her be baptized. SO the bad news is he died... BUT the good news is that she was baptized! and that made a really good impression on Jose Luis haha, and he wants to be baptized. Problem is he is living with someone and they have to get married first. But it will work out! haha He´s a really big dude! Like Rocky Sylvester Stallone big before he started doing steroids haha. On Friday we went over to a members house and helped them prepare food for the baptism of their daughter. It was really fun! I cut a lot of onions and I was bawling my eyes out the whole time haha. They felt so bad for me and kept telling me to stop haha but I kept doing it! I mean it's service right? even if it's a little cruel and unusual :) My fingers smelled like onions for days! The baptism the next day was really cool. This family is awesome! We've become pretty good friends with this family! So it was a lot of fun to be able to see the baptism. A lot of people came! She had a lot of friends and their families come that aren't members, so references woo!! haha but all of them were for missionaries in other areas hahaha Well crazy stuff, like 3 missionaries went home from our zone! The zone is going to change a lot, like they're getting rid of at least half of the missionaries here and replacing them. They even combined areas, so there are less missionaries in the zone. They have some big plans here, they want Venado to be a stake, which should be awesome! We saw the changes and it's so different! Elder Bravo is going to be a zone leader in Santa Fe! Which is pretty neat :) I can tell he's pretty excited for that haha. I only sa'w my companions name, which of course I just forgot :P haha but he isnt Latino! Which will be really different, but at the same time pretty nice :) Well I love you my family :) It's so great to hear from everyone! I hope all is awesome!! :) You are all in my prayers! Les amo, Elder Alek Clubb
