Last week was awesome, but this last week wasn't the greatest. We
put a date for baptism for this girl who hasn't been able to get permission for 3
months. We just passed by the parents until they gave her permission. I was so
happy. Their parents LOVE me. They get mad when I don't go by there house, I dont
even know why. But unfortunetly they don't really like the church. I tried a ton
helping understand why this is the true church, but they won't stop smoking. But I
think the example of their daughter will help them.
Then this week I did splits with another missionary who wanted to go home
and kinda helped him out and he told me he wants to stay. It was like this is
the first time he felt like supported by leaders. Then saturday I taught in
the stake a capacitation for youth. It was like a mini MTC and Elder Sarmiento
and I were teachers. Right after we went to a swap meet and did contacts. I
noticed that it has been 3 months since I knocked doors. I started working more
with members. But my comp is really, really, really shy with new people. So this
week we will be knocking doors so we can be more outgoing. Ha :) Hes funny he's
really prideful, so I use my sarcasm (You know how I am) to humble him and we get
along haha.
This week I feel the spirit during a blessing super strong. Man I love how
we are able to have the priesthood and that God has trusted us with the power of
helping people with what weve been blessed with.
Things sound great, Im glad you love teaching. Crazy about Dad. Im going
home to a different ward... Sweet ha I want to start recordings. So send me one
this week ok :) I sent a short one. But my package isnt here, everyone is
the ward knows its my birthday so Ill have a good day this year ha :)
Love you
mom and dad, for everything you've done. I'm working on pics but no promises.
There's a group on facebook from my branch. They put baptism pics up and
everything. The branch is called Paipote, in Copaipo.
Transfers are this week, I doubt I'll leave. I dont want to but we will see!
Love you, tell everyone I say hi. Love ya:)
