Mission Leadership Conference, a Pig, a Confirmation, and more Asada

-

 This week Luke had a mission leadership training in Resistencia so that took up most of his week between travel and his meetings.  He had a great time seeing some of his old companions and friends.  I think it is weird for Luke to know that he is now one of the senior missionaries.  It's weird when people start to go home and then you are the more experienced one on the mission :)  So it was a good, busy week.  I loved talking to him on my birthday, that was a fun surprise!








This is Lino after his confirmation on Sunday!


And they found a random PIG tied up outside someone's apartment :)  At least he didn't chase it around a field this time :)  ha ha ha






They met this guy on his birthday and gave him a Book of Mormon! 

This is the taxi driver that the mission uses all the time.  He is one of the first people that Luke met on his mission.

And of course they had to have an asada today because transfers are happening this week and a bunch of missionaries are leaving.  But Luke and Elder Reyes get to stay!!!!  Luke is thrilled about that!!!

 Luke's good friend Elder Rodriguez finished his mission and left this week!  This is the Elder that is friends with our neighbors up the street, the Wasiks!  And then Luke got to welcome 5 new missionaries!  So fun to be in this position right now to say goodbye's and to welcome the new ones!  Next week is going to be a tear-filled one as he has to say goodbye to his beloved mission president and his sweet wife!   One funny thing happened while they were at the airport.  There was a transgender man there in a dress.  As they walked by President Reber said to Luke and his companion "Nice dress!"  ha ha ha, Luke got a kick out of that! :)  Luke is loving his new companion Elder Suarez.  He is so kind and loving toward people and a great guy.  He is from Paraguay so he has a soft spot in my heart because my brother Tyler served in Paraguay!   That's about it from the week.  Busy busy but doing great!
