I'm training this week!


Things are goin good. Guess what, I’m training this week! I’m gonna have a kid! He’s from the states and he gets here on a special cambio Wednesday. (Cambio=Transfer) It’s bittersweet because I love my comp right now. He's been so funny and we have so many potentials.  This couple we are working with to try to get them married, then baptize the wife, cause there just living together. And then we are working with the sister of recent coverts and a few families where not everyone are members. The other thing that sucked was we couldn’t bring anyone else to conference. They all wanted to sleep in, but that’s life. We just have to teach the importance of church and be bold with them and get them in Church. Church just isn’t part of the Chilean culture.

Anyway, I LOVED conference. It helped me out so much. It gave me so much motivation to just keep being bold and contacting everyone I see! It’s unreal, I love the Church. My favorite was Bednar or Holland. The boldness and the things they say are just perfect to what helps motivate me. We had a separate room just for English missionaries to listen to conference. I think there were like about twenty of us.

 We have gotten a few Elders in our mission, but still not a ton of sisters. I think soon though. I thought about you all during Priesthood session. My zone leader was like, we are singing this song with our dads and brothers.  I was like Trunkey, ha-ha he’s awesome. We do sweet stuff in this zone, like today we played soccer for 2 hours then football for 2 hours on the beach. I had five goals :)

Oh and my convert Gonzalo, from the last sector wants to serve a mission already. Ha He’s kinda bummed he can’t, but in a year.  He’s going to bring so many people to the kingdom. Can’t wait!! I miss you guys, but feel so lost in the work. I love helping these people change. We just helped this less active girl put in her papers and change her life. She told me she was too scared to talk to the bishop. But I told her not to worry and to say a pray before you talk. She did it and should be getting her call soon. It was cool.

 Anyway hope all is well in Utah. I love you you’re the greatest blessing in my life.

Love you,

Elder Farny.
