Well Howdy!!!!
This week was a real dandy. A real slammer. I´m
¨Stoked¨ (ha) on Cerrillos. Geographically, It´s similar to Clara Estrella.
It´s Suburby, but richer, the houses are bigger, etc. There are lots of young
people, and LOTS of families, I´m excited about that. The weather has been
AWESOME here as of late;), although with some strange fog in the morning.
Today with the Zone, we had choir practice,
we´re going to sing ¨Lord, I Would Follow Thee¨ in a zone conferece the 19th,
and played some baby futbol!! The zone is really fun, united, neat-o. Being a
zone leader is neat, and in truth, quite similar. Essentially, we plan a lot
more, serve the missionaries, etc.
We had an awesome lesson with our investigator Nico. He
came out and told us how he wants to change, be baptized, etc. but has a lot of
fear about falling again in smoking or drinking with his friends (he´s 116
minus 100). It was really touching to see how his confidence has grown with us.
We taught the Gospel of Jesus Crist, the spirit was super strong. He accepted a
date for the 14 of July.
We´re also teaching Veronica, and her 3 girls.
They all came to church (nico as well, and others!) and they loved it.
Veronica, me thinks, still has some doubts, some valid ones as well. She seems
really analitical, she likes to collect lots of little details. She was very
worried about wearing a skirt to church, therefore decided on pants, with the
approval of her returning-to-activity neighbor Roxanne. Bbbuuttt she ended up
coming in pants! That made me smile inside;) I´m curios about personality
types, the 4 that there are. I want to use that information to help diagnose
how we can help the investigators better, and address their doubts more effeciently. I´m
curious about what type I am, about how God created my brain. Feel free to send
me some info.
We´re teaching someone named Belen, she´s 11
years old. Really smart, really intelligent, understands way more than I ever
did about the BoM with 15 years. Something that would prevent her from
achieving her Baptismal date could be here Grandma, if she´s going to provide
her support or not. If you would, pray that Veronica's doubts can be resolved, Belen´s grandma can feel the spirit and put her trust in God, and that Nico can
pray when he has temptations.
Thanks!
The ward here is super dope. Big, lots of
activites, ward mission leader, Ward counsel, functions smoothly, etc. It´s a
real real blessing to be here! It was a lot of fun to get to know them. I know
that togethor we can baptize weekly.
I went running this morning with Elder
Sharrapata from Oakland. I ate some carrots, an orange, an apple, and some not
so healthy cereal.
I uploaded a few photos! I want to send more
but I always forget. Forgive me :(((((((;(
Mom thanks for your big smile and for eating
healthy. Dad thanks for your encouragement in learning new things, languages,
cultures, business, going door to door. Tyler, I love your hair cut. Last
night we taught mario, with a hair cut even crazier than yours, ¨Opo´¨. I want
it when I get back. And thanks so much always for the psychology tips. Anna, your the
best french sister I have! And adventurous! Hyrum, the chileans love your hair.
