I hope you can see the video because dang it’s wild. I have no idea where all these horses keep coming from, or frankly how they live in a desert.
Good week, helping some people prepare for babtism.
Every once in a while we will see this guy on the street, his name is NoNo. As in his brothers name is YesYes. Still haven’t meet MaybeMaybe yet, but I’ve got hope.
It is wonderful that the Lord Jesus Christ should care for me enough to die for me. And to make a way back possible.
After a very long time, many lessons, and much patience and dare I say long suffering, Henry and Jairo were baptized!!!
It was something very special to see because at this point we have become as close as brothers. It has been very amazing to see the change in the lessons an in our friends when we really focus on saving their souls, through the gospel of Jesus Christ.
Alonso got Babtised!! It was so amazing to see a family that wants to come back to the fold, and it’s so great that we can help play a part in that. Also he is hilarious haha.
Did a skit for a ward activity, that’s why the jerseys
Zone conference, that was really fun Also make sure you study your scriptures, and take the opportunity daily to feast on the Word of the Lord. Moses 6:59-60. Be made whole in Christ
Great week, kinda smokey, our area catches on fire a lot. Don’t think they have Smokey the Bear here.
I’ve learned to embrace the words “It’ll buff” and “Its not that deep”
Sharing a scripture of the restoration in Amos 8, and by divine intervention the family that we were sharing with just happened to read that very scripture in their family study the night before.
Look at the 3 miricals that are there; 1) That they read scriptures 2) That they read the one they needed to 3) And most importantly, that they have a loving family with a Mother and Father centered in Christ
I love you so much, and more importantly the Lord does too.
o my plan was for every area to be a season right, but man I’ve been here a while
Great week, highs, lows, difficulties, triumphs, love, hatred, violence, and romance.
Not a whole lot of the last three, but you get the idea
Madaline was babtised by Gabriel, and it was super great to see someone that God helped you bring the gospel to, in turn pay if forward and continue in the magnificent work of the Lord. It was a super spiritual experience.
I love my time here, and am so grateful for everything the Lord has given me.
Technically it’s that much, but in Chilean pesos. Anyways it’s nice to have more than 1 bathroom and 1 bedroom for 4 elders
Carla was babtised and confirmed a member of the Church!
It’s such a blessing to be able to see the work of the Lord happening right before our eyes, and to feel the Love that our Heavenly Father is pouring out for all of His children.
His love is always there, just reach out to the Son and feel His love.
Also listen to Flashes of Light by Steven Lund, and you will be able to recognize all of the miracles in your life that testify of the Love of our God.
Good week, tough at some points, and great at others. A friend of ours cooked us some empanadas, and they were really good
but it’s pretty cool that diseases don’t exist in South America, because man putting boxes of raw chicken in the fridges is just a hassle. The ground is so much more convenient
I’ve got an experience that I want to share tho, I don’t send much back so if you’ll read this one I would appreciate it
It was a scorching hot Sunday afternoon, and me and E. Camacho were dead beat after the morning. We left early in the morning to pick up all of our friends for church at 9. Our bikes are broken, so it’s a ways to get to our sector. Church was great, but it’s very frustrating when the ward ignores our friends who are going to be baptized next week, and instead decides to pester you about their tupperware that you returned a month ago.
More frustrating things happened, but I don’t really want to get into the details of everything.
We end up finding ourselves in front of the house of a member, attempting to retrieve a jenga set for a lesson. They weren’t answering their door, and after knocking about 4 times I wanted to leave. But I had the impression to knock once more. And so I did. … Nothing. Knock again. … Nothing. Knock again. … Nothing. Knock again. And at this point I’m just feeling really stupid and like I’m bothering the neighbors.
But then they came and opened the door, and they gave us some ice cream. This was the inflection point of the day, and everything after this just went well. Which really doesn’t seem like a big thing but it was something that I needed, and something that God knew I needed. Just like with Peter, He asked those three times, and for me as well, He asked if I would follow Him three times as well. Trials are for growth, if you are uncomfortable, that means you are growing.
New year, woah, I haven’t eaten since last year. Man this fast seems long
Trying to bring people to church and teach them about the truth. Time is passing a little faster than I had anticipated, and I don’t think it’s because my watch is broken (brought two, both broke)
Everyday we have an opportunity to make a difference in someone’s life, so just do the little things that the Spirit prompts you to do. He is always there, always nudging, so just listen.
