This week could have hit the ultimate highlight. It was truly incredible. I believe I have told you all about Jeronimo Barreiro. As of three weeks ago, we told him to go ahead and start reading the Book of Mormon from the beginning. He is now almost finished with the book of Alma, and understanding so well everything. We come to teach him, and he will tell US scriptures that go along with the doctrine that we are teaching. Last Sunday really was incredible. There were miracles all over the place. We got up in the morning and went over our plans for the day and what we were going to do, and we then went to church. Everyone in the Barreiro Family made it to church.(Before, the parents were just a little doubtful to try going), and I was just thanking my Heavenly Father non stop in my heart for helping them to arrive at church on Sunday. We had a very good sacrament meeting, and they loved it! But if that was not fulfilling enough, Jeronimo gave me somethings. First, he gave me a little plane. He had spent time this week making this airplane out of wood by hand. He had carved, decorated, and put an Argentine Flag and an American Flag on it. So awesome, I reallly had no idea what to say. He then proceeded to give me a note. I will translate what it says-mind you he told me not to read it until we had gotten home.

¨Dear Elder Andersen,

Thank you so much for everything. For bringing the gospel into my family. I have returned to believe in God, and I feel in my heart that this is the Gospel of Jesus Christ. I now pray every night, and I feel so much more of God´s presence. I want to get baptized so i can be able to return to the Presence of God after this life. This airplane represents what you have done for me, to help me be able to fly high and return to God. It is humble, not bought, but I hope you like it.

Thank you so much, Jeronimo Barreiro¨ It truly was so incredible, I am not sure if the words are doing it justice. But we have just been so thankful for the blessings of our Heavenly Father, and for what Jeronimo has been able to touch us. He understands so well, we were there with another Elder doing his interview, and the Elder told him- ¨You will be a great example to your family¨ Jeronimo then replied ¨Yeah, I guess kind of like Nephi. Though, I obviously dont want my siblings to end up like Laman and Lemuel.¨ We have been working with their family, and we had an amazing lesson on the Word of Wisdom this week. The parents, Gabriel and Laura are now putting into work the atonement into their lives, as now they have desires to truly stop smoking and drinking. It truly has been one of the best weeks of my entire mission. Jeronimo told us he would like to be baptized this weekend, so we are in the works planning that for this sunday, or tomorrow that is. There really isnt much else I can say this week. Simply Incredible. I love this gospel, and love this opportunity I have to be a part of this work of our Savior. I know this gospel is the gospel of Jesus Christ, that he is Our Redeemer, and that through him we truly can find Peace and Happiness in this life. I know that God loves us, and that he is Our Father. He wants to bless us always, and when we do our part, he WILL bless us, and will give us the blessings that we desire and deserve-lifting from us the burdens that we are unable to bear. Thank you so much for your support. Elder Andersen
