Just another week in Bermejo!

Hey Everyone!

Well, it's been a good few weeks! I'm here in Bermejo, and I'm enjoying it. It's cool because I'm on the edge of Bolivia and Argentina, so I get to see two cultures at once. My companion is Elder Rivero, from Argentina. He only has 7 months in the mission, so that's different. I've never had a comp with less time than me before. He's a convert of only 4 years, and is always willing to learn. We work well together. We have District Conference (Stake conference but on the Branch level) this Sunday, so everyone here is excited about that! I am too, it's nice to have a change every once in a while. We're finding lots of great investigators, and I'm truly seeing the hand of the Lord here in the work. We are truly teaching his chosen sons and daughters, and I'm honored to participate in the great work of the Gathering of Israel. I will send more pictures next week. I forgot my card reader this week so I can't send any, but I hope everything is going good on your side of the world! It's always nice to hear from you guys...I'm not the best at writing group emails, but I always try to respond to personal emails!

Love,

Elder May

New Suit

Elder May needed a new suit, so he had one made for a great price in Bolivia.  Here he is:

Things are going well with him and his new companion, Elder Rivero.  

This morning they went to El Toro again.
