Elder Kenneth Georg Chalk, LDS Missionary in Rosario, Argentina!🇦🇷

   The transfer news came and went... Yah, nothing changing. I’m still here with Elder Price, and we’re rocking the area! Hope life is epic back in the States, time is flying by here... we wake up in the morning, we are outside all day, and it feels like the blink of an eye when we lay down in bed to go to sleep, like "Hey, I just did this 5 seconds ago... " haha - Went down to the farm of one of our friends here, he had a bunch of meat just hanging in his house... When we got to the farm he said "grab that bag." And we proceeded to shove a tiny pig while still alive inside it... Crazy stuff haha - Asados with some other friends, they’re all mechanics so we eat in their shop. They’ve got some crazy cars here y'all, I’ve seen everything from Toyotas to random giant monster truck thingies, Venado Tuerto goes wild sometimes haha - We were able to start talking to one of the inactive members here, and he said he had stopped coming because the last Elders had some k...

  Great week out here! Nothing too crazy to report. We’ll find out tonight if we’re going to get transferred, so y'all will find out next week haha - Divisions with Elder Labrum, we had a blast. A man showed us some of his artwork with these candlelight things, I have no idea how to describe it, it was epic - Élder Price tried making cookies and it turned into a cake for some reason... So we just ate that instead of giving it to other people haha - We finally got a clean water filter in the house! We don’t need to walk to the cement block anymore haha - Helped sand down the house of some members here to prepare it for painting! - Had an EPIC Noche de Hogar (Family Home Evening) with some friends, had an absolutely blast, the food was heavenly - There was a cool looking garden made of plastic bottles that we saw when we were passing by some other friends. Pretty sweet! Thats kind of it! I can assure y'all we do more than just eat and hang out with people here, I leave out the 9+...

  Last week of the transfer, the grand finale! Yeah, not actually, still got a hot minute here, but hey I’m LOVING it! We had interviews with the Mission President this week, I love that man with a passion! His advice and insights are always so inspiring and powerful. - Had a unique experience this week! We were walking past a house that we'd tried to contact dozens of times, but they've never been home. I just had the spontaneous feeling to go by them again, and you guessed it... we got to meet their whole family, and then we set up a date to help baptize their youngest daughter, since everyone had that opportunity except for her in the family. Crazy how the Spirit works, you never think that it’s actually the Spirit at first, but it sure is... - English class was epic, initially the other Elders were teaching it, but now I just do the whole thing for the most part haha - Got pictures of where we get our water during the week, it’s just a mystery cement square in the ground......

  Hi! So my subject line is a nod to when my mom was cooking during our FaceTime chat and I noticed that her pans have handles, which ours don’t…  haha This week was whack! From crazy food to a Halloween party in November and an EPIC division (splits) with Elder Gardener, this is one for the books. - We ate something called Mondongo this week, the "Panza de la vaca" or cow belly. Tasted like wet chicken... Probably wasn’t cooked... Maybe that’s why my Companion got sick haha  - Élder Price, my Companion, is an acrobat! He and I do some tricks together like flips and different things, but he’s teaching me a few other moves. - Halloween party was hilarious, Elder Price and I ran a super complex and ultra difficult game of... literally just bottle flipping... and everyone LOVED it haha! Of course Elder Price and I were dressed up as FBI agents which is close to what everyone here already thinks (Not kidding- some people here think we’re from the CIA)  - We get agua pota...

  Back at it again, my English is really freaking out... I’m forgetting how to say normal things as my brain is just switching to Spanish haha Another great week out here! As per the norm, nothing too crazy happened, but we’re still going strong.  - Taught English class, due to the Rain only one of our friends showed up but he's already practically fluent in English so we just talked a lot for the class - Solid divisions (splits), got to hang out with Elder Evans which was crazy! He’d been in a bilingual school since he was young, so he had a Major jump on Spanish!  - One of our friends is a professional chef, so we got eat some epic food over there - There was this Spanish choir that we hosted in our church, at a gathering for choirs from different faiths- it’s always so COOL to hear different cultures give it their all in choirs!  https://youtu.be/6rCz3ch0nBI - Some other Elder and Sister missionaries got together to eat dinner with the best members ever here, they...
