One of the beautiful things that I am experiencing here is the teamwork aspect of the work I am doing here in Argentina. I really love how this collection of people work off each and bring different things to the table. It reminds me that not every person is made in the same way but all in the likeness of Christ. That we are of one body, the church, and that we will continue to work together for what is good for the whole body. One of my strengths is my love of details and power of observation in my day to day life. A few of my team mates here in Buenos Aires have commented on this and the fact that they themselves are big picture people and do not notice all the little details that fill our lives. On the same note my team quickly noticed one of my weakness in the fact that I myself am not a neat or tidy person; but that I make small mistakes and leave things not as tidy as they should be. This weakness I hope they will continue to help correct and look to help me with to make sure I accomplish as much as I possibly can.

Another small battle I have taken on thanks to some advice I have been given is to fight and to maximize my abilities and to use my ADD as a gift and not as a deficit to what I do. I made my team quickly aware of this situation and have encouraged them to keep me from chasing rabbits and getting off the main point I want to make. This has started to help me to continue to grow in what I can do and I feel has helped me to communicate better with people. Also I hope that they will continue to help me with other parts of my life that I feel need improvement so that I can better serve my team and thus be more efficient in the work I do here for Christ.

I also hope that I can do the same for them and help them to become better laborers for Christ and that I would be able to encourage them and point them toward Christ as much as possible. I would like to continue to encourage you to take people in your church, friends, and family and to encourage them in areas that they are weak and to help them to become better people and servants of Christ so that they may glorify Him more in everything. Also work for the team that is striving for more people to know Christ as their personal savior. I hope the more you put into people's lives the more they are willing to put back into yours and help you to become more like Christ which is the real goal that we as Christians strive for.
