So
this week we pretty awesome! Seriously, like we just started monday
really excited i dont know, a new change and everything but nothing had
really changed. We contacted a ton of people the first day and had like
one or two lessons. Then we had a really awesome Zone Class and idk just
from there on out we starting having a ton of lessons. Well for this
sector. We actually had 21 lessons which is like normal for the mission
(well the goal is 20 to 30 lessons). We heard our zone leader (Elder
Cooper who was Elder Simmons comp and i know him well too) told us about
a story when he asked someone in the street for the bathroom and then
they taught them and someone in the family got baptised. So Elder
Simmons had to use the bathroom one day and we talked with this guy,
then after a few minutes, he asked to use him bathroom. We went in and
then taught the whole family (2 sons and the son´s girlfriend!) and they
are super cool! I did the same the next day and some lady let us in and
we talked with her for a while about what we believe! Haha it was
sweet. We also extended 3 more baptismal dates and Elder Simmons says
its been a while since they havent had anyone with a date. We were just
finding all sorts of people! I was so happy the whole week and my goal
in the begginning of the week was to develope the Christ like attribute
of Hope. Well i think it paid off! And the best part is: we are in the
church just before it starts, and 3 haitians walk in that we have never
even talked too! They just wanted to find a church! they are so legit
and we are going to teach their families this week! All the members
greeted them and they felt so welcome. I know this church is true and i
know that God does miracle if we just have enough faith.
And
the other elders in our ward had a problem so as of saturday we are in a
trio for the rest of the transfer i think...weird but we will get used
to it. Our other comp is Elder Paredes from Peru. My third peruvian
comp...hahaha!
Random
other story, told we went to play soccer (first time after the rule that
we couldnt play but now we can) in Galvarino (in my first ward!)
because all the chapels have soccer courts outside. And i saw Hermana
Irma (we lived in the second floor of her house!) and Karvic (this
really awesome guy that we helped reactivate) got onto the bus with
us!!! He told me he is ward secretary and he is going to get sealed next
march!!! He has been inactive since he was like 14 years old and then
he was living with his girlfriend (another less active member) with a
kid but they got married when I was there!! I love them haha they are
going to buy a house in the South of Chile and they said only Elder
Pinilla and I are invited!
I love the mission so much its unreal and all of you!!
