Hi Family and Friends,
Transfers…….. I left Tandil and headed to Bahia Blanca. There were about 40 to 50 missionaries in the bus stop terminal of Bahia, and none of us knew where we were going or anything. I got to see some Elders like Elder Lumsden and Caballero that I haven't seen for a while so it was good!
Then this guy named Elder Robinson comes up to me in the terminal and tells me we are comps and that we are in the Bahia Blanca Zone!!! Our area is called Maldonado!
Apparently it's one of the most dangerous areas in the mission and white elders are usually never put there. Now we have 2 of them there haha. We have to be home by 8:30 pm and everyone else has to be home by 9. This area is awesome though! It baptizes a lot, and we got 19 new investigators this last week!! (for this mission that's insanely good haha) I'm super excited to be here! Elder Robinson has a few more transfers than me.
The members here are awesome!! We've gotten like 4 references since we've been here haha. This is amazing compared to the 5 previous references I had got my whole mission (usually Argentines suck at doing missionary work)
Other than that not much happened this week! We just worked hard! Im super excited to work here in Bahia!
Funny story:
The ward made me conduct music because my comp plays the piano and so I said yes because I thought it would be easy….. I was wrong. Everyone was looking at me and I had to sing and wave my hand at the same time. It was bad. I just started waving it randomly cuz I got off track. This lady in the congregation was trying to coach me mid song and was waving her hand to show me how it is done haha.
Funny Story 2:
A member made us pizza but she loaded it with soft mushy Tuna. It was so gross! Me and my comp could barely get it down. She loved it though and she ate like 10 pieces herself and was saying how delicious it was. I miss Papa Johns!!
Have a great week,
Love Elder Tanner
