Dear family and friends,
This was another great week in the Neuquén Mission! Elder Tarone who is my new companion, and I am training for these next few weeks, arrived in the mission office on Thursday. He's quickly picking up on his responsibilities in the office, and the best part is that he wants to learn the job.
We have already been to immigrations and the police station which is a big part of his job when new missionaries arrive and when they need to renew their papers. We have also had a lot of time to be out doing normal missionary work. We are just getting everything in our area up and running because it was a "white wash" (when two new missionaries come into an area at the same time). So we don't know anyone, but we did have some great contacts this week. The Lord really does prepare us for the things we do. If we put our faith in Him, and take the right actions, He will help us. That's what we saw and felt this week every time we left the office or the apartment. We weren't sure what to do, but we took the first step with faith and everything worked out. The past few months since I left the office have been crazy, but I am learning a ton and I am very happy to be doing what is expected of me.
I love everyone and hope you all have a successful week!
Elder Kauffman aka Jack
