Hey family!!!

Wow, things are nuts here...Couple of housekeeping things again. I ordered a
George Forman Grill before I left (long story). If it has come, go ahead and
throw it in storage, if you are using it, that's fine, just keep it safe. Also,
have I recieved any bills? If I have, could you pay them and keep a list so I
can pay you back when I return, I don't want my credit going down....

Any ways still becoming accustomed to Argentine life. The power goes out weekly. I am
VERY tall, I've seen like 4 people taller than I. I have a final count of the
members in our ward.... 3 past mission presidents, 1 patriarch, 1 temple sealer,
1 current 70, 1 past 70, and a 1st counselor in a mission presidency!!! But
thats not the most humbling,... Last week I gave up on trying to listen to talks
during sacrament, instead I spend my sacrament meetings trying to decipher what
a nearby two year old is saying as he trips over his feet and falls on his
face... its kind of a humbling experience. Ah well Ii'll get it.

They have pizza here and they put all sorts of stuff on it. Egg, tomato, crispy bread strips.
Kind of interesting. I found my favorite candy, I'll send some back in 6 months.

Anyways, onto the good stuff, The work is comin along, Pretty tough but it's
coming. We´re still helping a brother quit smoking and its been 8 or more days!
We´re teaching his brother and his Mom will start taking the lessons soon. They
are awesome!! We are still teaching that part member family and they are awesome
too-- we did a FHE with them last week and this week we are going to talk to him
about baptism. We have two other families but they are very hard to keep
appointments with. Talking with alot of less-actives too.

I love the members alot and hopefully we´ll find some more people to teach... Well I love you
all thanks for your letters! I'll talk to you soon!

Love, Elder Kelly
