8.8.13 Argentina MTC

at the airport - heading to Argentina MTC

        I got the package and it was savaged through but everything was there so thank you! So Saturday was our first time proselyting and it was truly the most amazing experience of my life! Everyone has always said that when you see miracles that it doesn't change your testimony...well that is a lie! After Saturday, I can say that there isn't a single thing that the Lord can't do. I was in a ghetto (favela) area with my companion and it was terrifying, but the Lord helped us so much and we were able to actually teach people and with the help of the spirit, someone said they would be baptized if the missionaries prepared them! I had no idea that this could really happen. I can't explain everything and seriously I am scared...everything is going so perfectly and I am loving everything to the point of tears, but I am scared because everyone says that one moment you will be flying high and the next you'll get kicked to the ground. Either I haven’t been kicked yet, or I don’t know the difference… but everything is just going amazingly!

I hope everyone has fun at school! I miss competitive sports more than anything when it comes to missing home! I love you guys and I hope you all are doing everything you possibly can to keep the Lord, His son, and the Holy Ghost as close to you as possible! I wish I could type more but there really is no time!

Thanks for the package and all your blessings... I need them!

Love,

Elder McRae
