WOOOOOO!!!! Who all is excited for general conference!?!?!? I AM!!!! hahaha We are getting pretty excited down here for the chance to listen to the prophets and we are trying to get everyone excited about it! We also have a couple baptisms that we are preparing for the week after, so that makes us even more excited!
This last sunday we had 6 investigators attending church with us! I also had to try and learn a piano song in the moment we were singing it... you know what, it did NOT go as well as I would have hoped for! haha It just keeps me humble! haha
We also were visiting a lass active family this week who are SO GOOD! in fact, her husband used to be the branch president, but now they are going through some trials and have stopped going to the church after 30 years of being active! It was sad realyl because she said she feels like she really doesnt have any big sins that she needs to repent of, how humble... ugh. haha So we just shared with her how and why she needs to go to church and be renewing her baptismal covenants! On the plus side, we shared the plan de salvación with one investigator and her less active mother and it was SO GREAT!!! She is progressing like a star and when we were going through this lesson, her mom shared her testimony on how she was so glad that God had given her a second chance through her daughter, and she was saying how life was hard and then Anais, her daughter, was born, and now life was getting hard again, and Anais is accepting the gospel in her life! It really is a great blessing to see how this gospel helps families to be SO MUCH HAPPIER!!!
En Miercoles (wednesday) we were talking with some people and I got asked where I was from. They said I have the face of an american but I had an accent of a mexican!!! WOOOOOTTTT!!!! I was pretty pumped! Its probably my favorite part about chile when people guess that I am NOT from the states! haha Just means my latin is truly coming out! ;) hehe Also, Elder Bowen helped us by taking us out to a lesson a little ways out of town and as we were driving he said "Oh look at that sunset... Oh shoot, there goes corner!" hahahaha It was really funny because he was suppossed to be driving! haha Oh boy...
It was also really cool this week as we asked an hermana to go with us to a lesson and she told us how it didnt matter if the investigators lived close or far, she was willing to walk anywhere to help. It was impressive. I hope that everyone of us is willing to go to any end of town to help this work. If we work together, we will truly help so many of Gods Children, our brothers and sisters recognize this gospel that we have!!!
Then we had a good zone meeting with Presidente this week. I realized it was the first time that I had seen him in 3 weeks which was a change from the office and it was a nice little meeting we had. We talked about the importance of planning and taking advatage of every minute we have!!!
So how can YOU help the missionaries this week? Look for a friend that needs some help and give them a call! They will be SO EXCITED!!!! I am completely sure! well Thats all that Igot for this week! Hope all is well! Loves!!!
