Hey Mom!!!
Everything is great!!! Sounds like the weather is changing all over the world...Heree we are starting to get a bit colder and we have had a ton of wind!!! We worked a ton with teh members this week and it was pretty awesome--our investigators are progressing but at the same time and at a really slow rate. It's so frustrating at time when you work all week and everything has gone great and then Sunday comes and nobody comes to church, but it's ok, I'm sure things will come through in the end and it's ok we have another 6 weeks to work with them cause my comp and I are staying here for another transfer.
Sounds like the classes are going great....I'm not sure what I want to study now... but if I do decide to it will be great having help cause I don't think I remember anything.
Sounds like if Jared keeps it up he is going to pass me up (in height) too!! Ha ha. It's okay though, I don't really care for being any taller that I am---at least here in Argentina Ha ha. Everything is SHORT!!!!
Anyways that's just about it for now, Ha ha!!!!
Till next week!!!
Love,
Your Elder Johnny Berghout

Hola Mama!!!!
No se que debo decir primero. . . o debo cambiar a igles....(I don't now what to say first . . . or should change to English) Wow... I didn't know Dad had bought a Subaru... and now he's already bought a Jeep, sounds like everything is going great there!!! About my Jeep yeah sure put a lift on it but could you do 6 inches instead of 3? I would like to put the Camero together when I get back too!!!
Ok well.... this week we really worked hard and we are really trying to get the memebers working with us but you know it doesn't always work out as good as we hope....when we have lessons, it's hard to find memebers to go with us and when we have memebers to go with us we get to the lessons and the people have forgotten or aren't there like they said. Don't worry, we are progressing just it's frustrating sometimes... Don't worry I love it!!!!!
We do have people progressing and we are hoping to be able to put some baptismal date this week. We have some that are already for baptism, we are just waiting for people to do divorces so that they can get married and also one mom to decide that her daughter can get baptized. Some people are so hard at times. It's like the Book of Mormon in our days...I was just reading about Alma and Amulek this week and the people seem just as wicked these days. I'm so surprised that God just doesn't send the people of the world a plague or lighting bolt or something and wipe out all iniquity.
Anyways everything is going great!!! I was really excited to get your emails this week!!!
I love you Guys!!!!
I know that the Church is true and that the Book of Mormon is the evidence that it is true and that it is the key to our religion!!! I know that it can respond to absolutely any question that we might have!!!
As we receive blessing we should never forget what we need to be doing as memebers of the church...Don't follow the same pattern as what happened to the Nephites remembering the Lord in times of difficulty and forgetting when "all is well in Zion" or when we are receiving blessings from the Lord.
Con Mucho Amor
Les Amo!!!

Hey Mom!!!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!! and Happy Birthday to Keon Too!!!
Yeah we had another great week this week!!! We didn't find quite as many people but the people that we found are GOLD!!!! I told Dad a bit about them in the email to him.
Our Zone is progressing too. . . little by little. . . We are all having success!!!
Sounds like a great spring break ha ha!!! Hope that finishen up the class goes great.
Nope there really is not anything that I need but I was thinking this week that I miss twissler licorice!!! and maybe you could send the recipe for pancakes, I don't remember it exactly. and how to do it for apple cinnimon too.
I think that's about it!!!
Love

Hey Dad!!!!
Yup we talk with about half of them and the other half we have passed by and not been able to find. Also this week we found two families that are awesome!!! They don't already have another religion and don't believe in anything really weird either and they believe in the basic beliefs.
I knew that Mom's birthday was this week, ha ha and Keon's too right?
The weather here has been really nice--not hot, not cold, but just right. The other day there was supposed to be a rain storm. . . We had just got to the apartment and it started to dump but about 10 minutes later it stopped. That's the only crazy weather we've had.
In another 6 months, I'll be back and I'll be able to speak last minute....or you could have Matt do it ---that way he can get to church.
Love
You Elder Berghout

Hey Dad!!!
Our days here are starting to get a little colder but I don't think we will get super cold here, but the time here doesn't change. Argentina is one of the only places that doesn't have daylight savings.
Yeah I know I got lost in the work this week and it was awesome!!! After traveling during the week to Neuquen and then coming back, we didn't get much done missionary workwise, but we got back and my comp and I worked super hard!!! This week we found 14 new investigators in 3 days of working in our area!!!
We are going to have a lot of success this transfer!!!
Love
Your Elder Berghout

Hey Mom!!!!
Nope, My comp didn't hear anything from his family (in Chile), there hasn't been power in his part of the country so he didn't even get an email or anything, but he left yesterday for Neuquen and will be home on Tuesday so he'll hopefully be seeing them.
Wow!!! Cameron is doing awesome with the Grades!!!(maintaining 4.0 Average!!!)
I am glad the classes are going great in Anatomy!!!!
This week was pretty crazy. . .We went and saw the penguins on P-day and then during the week it was a lot of goodbyes for my comp.
I am excited to be starting a new transfer with another comp who is not going home already. . .I'll be with Elder Luengo---he will be my first comp from Argentina!!!
Anyways thats just about it for now
Love
