¡Hola Todos!

Well this week we finished the transfer and I got the news that Elder Huber and I will be sticking together in Rivadavia for this next transfer as well! Its the first time that in my whole mission that I have been with a companion for more than one transfer, crazy right? So we´ll see how it all goes! I´m excited to be able to continue working here in Rivadavia and see a ton more miracles! This saturday we also have plans for the baptisms of Irene and Mario, so we hope everything works out for them as well! Other than that great miracle, we dont have a whole lot of other investigators we are working with so were in the search!

Miracle of the Week: So this last week, we were working with Irene to help her be ready for her baptism the following week. As I have said, she smokes and was still smoking a few cigarrettes every day. We were thinking on what we could teach her and felt strongly to teach about fasting. We went and were able to have a great lesson with her about it and inviting her to fast with us to be able to quit smoking. She accepted! So we were able to have a really awesome experience, being able to do a fast with her. And she did it! She fasted with us and didnt even smoke once! It was a cool experience and definitely a miracle!

Scripture of the Week: I had planned to look for a Father´s day scripture or something like that, but I totally forget, oh well. But I would like to share the first scripture in the BoM. 1 Nephi 1:1. Its the best I got, but shout out to all the great fathers out there!

Funny Experience of the Week: So this last pday Elder Huber needed a haircut like any missionary needs to do regularly to keep everything good and missionary professional. So we went to a haircut place and the guy went to work. When he was done his haircut was less missionary approved than it was before! He got a tradicional argentine style cut which is super short on the sides and then long on top. haha he said it looked fine but then we went to our district meeting the next day and everyone asked him what happened to his hair! So I decided to take matters into my own hands, while also practicing my haircut skills, and cut his hair again for him during our lunch break. I didnt tell him it was my first time doing it so he let me, hehe. All I had were paper scissors and a comb...
The end result looked pretty good to me, but once again we got a few outside opinions and it looked terrible apparently haha! 
So this week I ruined my comps hair, but luckily it´ll grow back, right? I guess cutting hair isnt my profession...

Thats all folks! Til next week!

-- Things are good, im at a point in my mission where everything is starting to seem the same and in a way is getting boring some things we do. So right now im just working on making every moment count and enjoying every aspect of the work. But im doing very well other than that and loving my time here!
I still good and dont need anything for now, thanks! I´ll let you know


this is kind of what im feeling now haha!

(excerpt from the best two years)
Another great month and I am still loving mission. Things in Mpumalanga are kind of staying the same I am hitting what we call out here the 12-14 month blues. Nothing crazy but it just seems like stuff is slowing down. I am doing all I can to stay on top of it. The one thing that has kept me going is the awesome blessing of teaching lessons. It really is the only remedy for the tough times. You feel tired and feel like the week was pretty tough but then you get into the lesson you feel the spirit and it just turns the day around. 

me_ Thats hysterical! Maybe youll be a barber on the side!
Tyler-Haha now I know how to do it though!! I cut his hair against the grain if that makes sense so there were lines on the top and it just looked like a rat at bit into it a few times that all! hahaha
Next time ill do it the other way around
Me- was he mad?
tyler-No, because he didnt think it looked that bad either. but the closer you look the worst it is. He wasnt mad becuase I got most of the beef from it from everyone else. Elder huber just tells everyone I cut it and they make fun of me haha. 

Elder Trent



We have two peruvians sister missionaries in our district. and after our last district meeting we ate peruvian food that they had made us! I love peruvian food sooo much haha! I dont remember whats its called, but its sort of like a fried rice thing.
