Week 57: Party In The Heavens

Image
    Hellooo fam and friends!! Just would like everyone to know that there was a party in heaven this weekend. And there was also a party in the Ward Conce Centro because Emely got baptized!! Hahaha it really was a beautiful day. Her mom isn't a member and didn't want to listen to us when we taught Emely but gave us permission to baptize her. But now after the baptism of Emely she has completed changed and is willing to listen to us. We already have a date to go to the temple with their entire family to walk around the grounds and teach them a lesson there. Pray that she can follow her daughters example and be baptized!        The best part might have been where we had to drag Emely out of the font cause she starting swimming around and wanted me to count how long she could hold her breath under the water hahahah. She is so happy and she really is gonna be the key in her Mom's conversion.     Another miracle we saw this week is that we got a r...

    Holaaaaa a todos!! Hope everyone is having a great week:) Here in Concepción central has been great but also crazyyy. It's been an incredible week and I'm grateful to be able to share a few highlights of the week with u all.        Like you can all imagine living here in a huge city is a big change from living on the farm in Preston idaho hahaha. It's hard to fall asleep to loud music and cars beeping but I'm starting to adjust. The way to work and find new people to teach here is also super different. We knock a lot of apartment buildings and talk with a lottttt of people in the street. Most of them live in literally any other part of Chile expect my area but hey all of God's children have to be baptized hahahaha.        But with all the crazy things happening we were able to put a baptism date for young girl named Emely! Her grandparents are members but super inactive. We have been working with the entire family and they all came t...

    Hola hola family and friends! Hope you all have had a great week. As you can see from the title we had transfers and..... I got transferred to Conce centro! My new area is in downtown Concepción. It's a huge change from the little beach town of Tomé but I'm all here for it! Our little apartment is tucked behind huge buildings and I love the vibe here. I feel like im serving in LA cali hahaha. I also got to know my new ward and my new biship who is 30 years old from Argentina! He has so much energy and honestly it's super refreshing seeing a ward with so much activity. We are gonna do a great work here.        My new companion is named Elder Araya from Santiago Chile so now I'm really gonna get down the Chilean accent. I'm excited to learn from him and I'm hoping we stay together for awhile.        The elders before me have been teaching someone named Patricia and I was lucky enough to be apart of her baptism. Me and my comp and a les...
