Bueno! We had quite the week this week! On Tuesday we had a
mini conference with president and the Assistants. They talked about the
focuses of the month! So it was way sweet! I learned a bunch and it got me stoked
for the week! Then right after I had a mini combio with Elder Bracken..my
brother from another mother. We had a great day we taught some great lessons,
and I did an interview for them. I interviewed Marina a 90 year old. She is so
great. She has a great spirit and had so much desire to be baptized! So that
was a great experience for me.
On Friday we had the
big Karaoke party. We had made invitations and passed them out to the whole
ward and a bunch of other people. So we were expecting to see at least 80
people there. We had to buy the stuff and figure out how we were gonna project
it and everything. We bought corn to make carmel corn and everything. So we
were all stoked to get this ward stoked, but like 30 people showed up. A couple
of investigators and some less actives and a couple of members. But everyone
who came had a great time at least so that’s what counts right! So it was cool.
Saturday we had this crazy lunch. The member made some
sausage soup thing and put like a liter of oil in it. And I worked fine all day
but when I got home and after we had planned I spewed my guts out for a little
bit, and my I had some killer body aches. It was way weird. I woke up Sunday
feeling super bad and we had to leave and make sure our investigators were
coming to church. So I got it together and we headed out. We had a great week.
Our focus of the week was having people in church. So we worked hard all week
inviting and verifying, and it paid off we had 7 people in church. So the Lord
blessed us tremendously!
We had a sweet Family
Night with some investigators who are friends of 2 members. Their names are
Alejandra and Mario. Mario drives semi-trucks throughout Chile and he’s only
20. He’s super cool, and his wife is way cool. The members have shared a lot
with them about the church. The members are less actives. But Mario and
Alejandra are looking for the church. They came to church and they loved it!
They have 2 little kids Ignacio (Nacho) and Martina. They are so cute. So pray
for them that they keep progressing!
And Danilo is the boyfriend of a member. They are getting
married the 19th of January. And he’s been sharing with the missionaries in
Santiago, and wants to get baptized here. So that’s a huge miracle. So we are
stoked to see what’s in store for us this month. We just gotta keep working
hard and the Lord will bless us. This Wednesday is the Christmas Conference! So
I’m excited for that but a little bummed because I have to give my last
testimony in the mission. But it’s alright I still got plenty of time! I love
you guys tons and hope that you all have a great week!
les quiero,
Elder
