Family and Friends,
Well things are starting to warm up here and its about freakin time i get a summer since i got robbed in the mtc were it snowed during the spring. Things are all good here. On saturday we went up to central santiago to listen to Elder Scott speak!! It was way sweet he threw down on how to use the introduction of the book of mormon to help our investigators understand and on temple marriage. It was waaay good, the spirit was so strong, the coolest was when he went to walk out he came back to the pulpit and left us with a blessing of protection, and thats when the spirit was way strong. Oh and he spoke in spanish, it was way cool to listen to that. Elder Corbridge also threw down on why our message is important to people and its because it is their salvation and how we need to stress that this is the way of God which is the only way! I was also able to talk to Elder Richins from my district, he´s so stinkin funny, he´s doing way good down south, which i have to go down there, it is way beautiful and packed with horses, my kind of town thats for sure. Ha Elder Hale my comp from the mtc who weighed less than me in the mtc is getting fat!! Me im still doing good but i am pretty concious and try to work out really good every day. Then we went to the mall and i had taco bell for lunch, it almost felt like i was in america for a bit till i hit the nasty street of lower Santiago once agian, our part of town is so dirty, it makes me laugh. Oh i also rode the subway for the first time, it was pretty interesting, one of the elders almost got caught in the door that was pretty funny.This week was a touch slow for finding and teaching so please pray that we can find people this week. I went on divisions twice with Elder Jaime from Chile and Elder Mayans again... it was way sweet, Elder Jaime and I contacted this Evangleical who told us that President Monson was dead... haha we straightened her out on that one. And made fun of all the gangsters when the asked us what our names were, every stinkin flyte asks us that here. So we ramble off gibbirish and they think we are speakin english. Then on thursday i taught some cool lessons with Elder Mayans, I swear he has a gift, we found some lady taught her for 10 mins and he stuck her with a fecha!! It was way sweet, then i taught the smartest ten year old i have ever seen.... She´s evangelical but she knows that her church isn´t true... she just says its more fun, so we explained about the church a little and i commited her to pray about the church and the bom again. At the end of the night Elder Mayans told me that i improved a ton from the first time i went on divisions with him. That was pretty cool to hear that from him. We´ll it looks like we have 4 baptisms coming up this week, Daniela and Tamara (Two of Miguels daughters which he is going to baptize). Then this couple that´s getting married this week and, the lady has been investigating for 11 years and is finally getting married! So we get to baptize her and her husband. We just have to speed teach the rest of the lessons so we can interview them this thursday. Miguel is so sweet, he went to the temple this friday and he loved it. I feel bad cause you can really tell that he wants his wife to get baptized so they can get married in the temple but she is super stubborn, she just doesn´t want too yet, so pray that her and her daughter will feel the spirit so they can get to the temple in a year. Then we have a fecha for the 12 of Sept with the Dad of the other family we are teaching, the rest should follow soon, they are a way good family. Oh i got all of the stains out of my muddy clothes too! you´d be way proud mom!! Well I think that´s about all for this week I´m gonna go cut my hair and buy some food! Thanks for all that you do! I love you all be safe and you are always in my prayers!!!
