Week 49&50: The American Cup

       Hello everyone! Happy Monday hope you are all well. These past two weeks have been so great and went by very fast. I've been adjusting to a new area and being a zone líder but it has been great and I've learned a lot. It's fun moving places and getting new leadership responsibilities because it make you rely more on your Heavenly Father. So I've been very fond of change recently haha. 

        As some of you know the American Cup is being played right now. It's basically all the countries from South and North America are playing in a huge soccer tournament. The chileans along with every other Latino, soccer is their lives. Chile played a few games this week and the streets and stores on every corner either had a radio blasting the broadcast or televisions playing. It's fun to be a part of their fun culture when it comes to fútbol. Sadly we have already been elimated and now all the people are grumpy and won't listen to the missionaries hahahaha. Don't worry we are just gonna give them a little time to get over it. 

      Also had exchanges with the Asistents to the president which was super fun and learned a lot there as well. Their area has the temple in it so it was a blessing to be able to work around the temple grounds for a bit. Also I'm convinced I have the prettiest mission in the world. Let me know if I have any contenders. 

        This week during my studies I focused a lot on the restoration of the gospel. I have come to know that this church has been restored by Joseph smith. I realized how nuts it is that we are in the last dispensation. We are in a state of learning and preparation until christ comes. God will not talk priesthood power away from the earth again. What a blessing. I know these things are true because the holy ghost has manifested it to me. And I know through the power of the holy ghost we can know the truth of all things. Love u all. God lives
