"Hey pato!! Patricio amigo mio! How´d it sound to you if you picked you up with a member a little bit before?! Ahhh ya, lets do it! Well, we did.
Patricio is progressing, slowl but surely. He´s really talkative, which is just dandy. It was so good, and so so funny to see him dancing at the halloween party. He went to town, more or less, with the food, little hand sandwiches, limon pies, etc. Lots of Soda! It was good to see this 52 year old Chilean war lietunent get out of his house, dance (not WITH his wife, veronica, she refused, haha....), but he did his best to woo her to the dance floor but to no avail.
Veronica was befriended by all of the good sisters there, in her non expressive way I know she was very grateful for the experience.
We had a really long long lesson with her husband Patricio Saturday! I sat there thinking, ¨wow!! From where is this pacience, this willingness to listen coming from?¨ As we had been there for a while already, and she had left to buy in the street market.
When she finally returned, she started to cook, she´s just starting to listen to us, and we felt the impresion to offer her a blessing. She acepted and it was given. I know that they´ve felt very grateful to have company, to have a friend! He´ll be batpized the 24th, but needs lots of help with alchohol and cigerettes. Keep up the prayers!
Isidora got baptized yesterday! Her family has an internet cafe close to our deparment, we go there a lot. One day, while there, we felt the impresión to talk with them, show them fotos of the fam., and such! They accepted to listen to the missionares and from there everything began!
Yesterday after her baptism, in a fireside we had with the stake with P. Barrieros, she came up to me and said ¨Thanks..... Thanks for baptizing me....¨ Reserved, maybe a little shy, but very firm in what she does. Her brother Nico and mom, Veronica, are reading the BoM as well.
Veronica wants to swim with dolphins. That´s her dream! (Veronica Espinace, mama de valentina and Genesis). Lets do it, eh?! She´s also a pretty darn good missionary. If you can make time, you´re all invited to our missionary picnic at church in front with the grass!
Carlos was a texan for Haloween!!! With a big mustache.
It was cool to see him yesterday literally convince Jasmine, his daughter, and Charlie, her boyfriend to come with us to the fireside! He´s still not a member, but everyone thinks he is. He´ll be baptized the 17th..... although he still doesn´t know it.... hahah;))(()()()))))(((
I think the best testimony of this gospel that I have, are the photos of you guys. I show them to érbody, and they say, wow! Pretty please, may I read the BoM? or just get baptized??!! or go to the temple?! hahaha.
Elder Hasler IS THE BEST COMPANION EVERRRRRRR
Love you all!!!!!
