¡Hola!

> hey friends and family! another week another peso!
>
> this week, was tiring but amazing, the beginning of the week went pretty normal, monday and tuesday, we worked normal, had a couple of good days, and worked hard, to be honest now that i was a week ago i cant remember what happed then, so therefore we must assume they were good, normal days. expect tuesday we played soccer with the youth from the church and i scored a goal.
> wednesday and thursday we spent getting ready for the trip to artigas that the whole zone was going to be taking for a multi zone training conference for all the missionaries as well as the stake conference we were going be having in tacuarmbo (stake conference is when all the wards of an area meet together and have one giant meeting all together).

> friday we went to artigas and left at 4 am, in order to get there at 8, my good friend elder davis was there, he is another guy i started the mission with, and has been with me since the begining but it was the second time i had seen him in the year that ive been here, so it was a super good time. as well, the training was amazing, my companion and i had to do a role play where another missionary acted as someone investigating the church and we had to teach him and then receive feedback from all the other missionaries there. i was nervous before hand but once again it turned out to be a good experience. friday night we got home, and saturday was the start of stake conference. our mission president came to tbo to speak at the conference so we were all excited to have him there. saturday i spent the day with my friend elder brown, one of the asistent missionaries to the president, and president himself escorting them around, while my comp, and the other asistent elder bossa, went to lessons to teach investigators. all the meetings for stake conference turned out amazing, and i finally hit the pillow sunday night so tired but today i woke up just like always at 6:30 jumped out of bed, because TODAY IS THE DAY!

> after the death of john the baptist, Christ leaves jerusalem to mourn, but the multitude follows him, at the end of the day, the apostales turn to Christ and tell Him to send the multitude away to find food to eat. Christ responds to them, that they dont have to leave. the apostals remind Christ that all they have a 5 loaves of bread and two fishes. Christ feeds the 5000 men and their wives and children with 5 loaves and bread and 2 fishes. we may be few, we may be weak, we may be overwhelmed, and feel like we dont have enough, but we dont have to leave either, if we take all we have to Christ, it is enough because he can magnify us. 5 loaves of bread and 2 fishes fed 5000 men and their families. what can we do with our many talents, and abilities to make a diference in this world, if we take all we have to Christ even if it may be as little as 5 loaves of bread and 2 fishes.
