Week 57: Party In The Heavens

    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 reference of a girl that asked for a missionary visit on Facebook. We went and turns out she is a member that got baptized in Osorno (south of chile) and just moved to conce with her husband to study here ! They both are 19 years old and got married a few months ago. Her husband isn't a member but has a lotttt of interest and came with us to church this week. God is preparing his children to hear the missionaries! 


   This week we have a mission conference on Wednesday and we are going to the temple as a zone this Friday. I've been preparing myself to enter into the temple ever since we booked the appointment. I love listening to the talks from last general conference because every one is very focused on the temple. I'll just finish by saying that the temple is the house of the Lord. And thanks to temples I'll be sealed with my fam for the eternity. And thanks to the covenants ive done there I'll receive the promised blessing God has for me here in this life and in the life to come. God Lives.

Week 48: Vamos No Mas

      Helloooo fam and friends!! Hope you are all well and enjoying summer and the warmth. Here in Chile we are freezing.        We had transfers this week and they called me as a Zone Lider! I'm super excited to get to work and help the missionaries in my zone. I also hit 11 months the other day which is crazy. Also something super funny is that I got transferred to another area but in the same city of Tomé!! It's just on the other side hahah. So I don't have to say goodbye to the ocean just yet. Also my new companion is from Peru and has 21 months in the mission so I've got a lot to learn from him.         I'm sad leaving the ward and area where I was at but I'm happy with the work I did. I felt like I really did help with  the gathering of Israel there and I'm excited to keep working. Had to say goodbye to all of my recent converts and the members which is always terrible but that's the mission for you.    ...

Week 33: Los Evangélicos

Image
      What's up everyone! Had a tough but great week in Chile. I learned a wholeeee lot. To start I better explain the title a little. Idk how I didn't realize this until this week but in my zone where I am serving there are tonsss of other churches. Every contact we had in the street people would say "soy evangélico déjame en paz" hahaha. I then started to realize that every corner here there is an Evangelist church. And these churches aren't empty they are always filled with people singing and playing their electric guitars and drums. I then was talking to a member of my ward and he told me that in 2010 there was a tsunami that wrecked all the houses and churches down by the beach. So all these people moved up on the hill and built their churches. So please pray for me that i can find some people willing to hear the restored and true gospel of Jesus Christ! Ive already been in wayyy too many Bible bashes hahahaha.      Also this week Elder Costa of the se...

Week 94-96: La Última Vuelta

Image
      Buenas tardes family and friends!! Hope all is well with you guys. Today is the first day of my last transfer. I'm staying here in the little branch of Dichato with my same companion Elder Stevenson! I'm very grateful for the opportunity I have to finish here and to do everything I can to help this branch before I go. I'm excited to get back and see the fam but I'm also not ready to leave the mission field and to take off the mission tag. As I reflect on the mission I realize it has prepared me to be a great student, a great church leader, and a great father. But the only thing I'm worried about rn is the 6 weeks I have left to represent Jesus christ here in Chile. Ánimo!!!          Our friend Miriam got baptized this week! We had a great baptism service and every member was here to support. She also already has her temple recommend and is going to the temple with the branch tomorrow!! We have also been teaching 2 families that have came to ...
