A drug dealer, a Lamborghini and Elder Halverson


Wow, I am really looking forward to writing this week as to tell about the great things that happened. This past week was a week that really stood out to me! I think about how impactful it really was! Last week, we had some great lessons that really stood out! 

The first with a lady by the name of Mari.She is the lady that works for the UN in Haiti but moved to Chile and she speaks perfect English! So, we taught her the plan of salvation and everything seemed to click. as we talked about a life before, Adam and Eve, and our purpose here on earth! She really felt the spirit and was impacted by it a lot! She even accepted a baptismal date and really wants to work towards it.

We also had a lesson on Saturday with Alfonso who has a planned baptism for the 25th. He now doesn’t have as many doubts and is learning a lot and has sincere desires to change and become better! 

On Saturday, Elder Scott and I ran into a Black Lamborghini parked outside a paint shop which is very rare to find here in the south Santiago area.....Perplexed, we walked up to it and proceeded to talk to the guy about his car. (we think he is a rich drug dealer) We started talking and stuff, and he let us get in! So I got in the car put my hands on the wheel and had Scott do a photo shoot of me with our brick phone. LOL. These guys got a kick out of two American Missionaries taking pics of his car with a flip phone. hahaha. It was really funny! 

Last Thursday, we had a lesson with a member reference of a guy named Michael! He has a date and is a really nice guy!


Ok on Wednesday, we had a Mission reunion with the Rancagua Mission and I got to see Elder Halverson! Best Valentines present ever! :) I hugged him and felt right to the bones! He is skinny and is doing great! Such a cool mission moment meeting back up with him! We only had a little time but we talked a little and caught up.

Seeing and hearing Elder Christofferson was great. He is an Apostle of God! He spoke with power and his insights were great! He shared about grace and repentance and about how baptism is the final step of repentance! It was powerful.! It really got to me!
