Ok
so this has been a great week! We saw some miracles and we were able to have
lots of wins!
Last
week we had some challenges in the work. It seemed that we couldn’t get
anything to go our way. Almost all of our set lessons that we had with people
fell through, nobody came to church on Sunday. At the end of the week, we were
a little beat up.
However,
on Monday, we had a great day. I was with Elder Leles, a Brazilian, on
divisions in my sector. We had a lesson with a man by the name of Renee Jonas.
we shared lesson one and we were able to draw out on a paper the different
parts of the lesson and really try to help him understand it and he did! He
speaks good Spanish and is a Hattian that had lived in the Dominican! He even
wants to be baptized!
Afterwards
we had a Family Home Evening with the Bishop and a part member family (Enrique
is the dad and is a member, and Fernanda is his girlfriend who came to church
before) We shared a short lesson, watched a video, and then played some games
with the family. It was really good having them over and having the two
families build a relationship together.
The
following day, we had a great day as well. We taught a mom and son that had
come to a church activity before and we were able to have a good lesson and
invite them to the church! The son recently had a major surgery after falling
out of a building! It’s a miracle the guy is alive.
Then,
later we had lesson with Sadrac, who is a Hattian that is cousins with our
recent convert who was recently baptized! We had a good lesson and he is really
looking forward to his baptism. He has a little over 1 month in Chile and is
still learning Spanish, but he can speak a little bit of English with us which
is nice!
Today,
we played soccer and it was fun but really tiring in the sun! It’s still really
hot here in Chile!
I
am really happy and grateful for the opportunity that I have had to be a
missionary. It really is neat to help people and to be a servant of the Lord. I
know that this is his church and that there really does exist a church that is
true. Many have that doubt amongst a world of many denominations but I have
had some time to really think, study and pray on this and I know it to be true.
This really is the Church of Jesus Christ.
