Chile ~week 57

happy mothers day to all those mothers out there!! 

this week was a good one, i really enjoyed it, especially doing skype with the fam!!

also this week has gotten quite a bit colder and rainy... so its beginning to be that time of year again! (sarcastic woohoo!) haha

Well heres my week:

Tuesday: we did our morning studies, then had lunch, we had an appointment fall, so we decided to contact a bit.. we then taught a guy named jorge, and we were able to put a baptismal date with him. then we started to contact again, we ran into a kid that tried to speak english with me... key word... tried... haha. but after we wrote down his info and were gonna pass by sometime..

Wednesday: district meeting... but sorry, nothing else really happened...

Thursday: we had an attack in an area named cabrero, which is a few minuted from los angeles. 

Friday: an eventful day, we taught pablo, whoi refers to himself as a dry mormon. he believes in everything, has a testimony, but is having troubl getting baptized, he just doesnt want to do it.. so were gotnna see what we can do there. then also we went to teach a less active family that night.. whos daut}ghter isnt baptized.. they told us that the dad is going to reactivate himself so he will be able to baptize his daughter.. so that made us really excited! but then they told us the daughter is 8!!! everyone always told us she was 9! so that was a fun roller coaster of emotions. 

Saturday: We didnt have any set plans, so we decided to contact a bit. it started sprinkling, so that wasnt bad... then is strated to pour!! we werent ready for pouring weather, so we got soaked, and the rain gear we were wearing got soaked!! it was so cold! so after a few hours of that we ran home to change into dry clother and other rain gear to go to a baptism of the sister missionaries in our ward. but it has gotten pretty cold and wet here...

Sunday: we had church, jorge came, but this less active fam didnt. so we called them about skype(where we were going to do it) and they told us their internet got cut, so we were going to do it with the lunch we had, but his microphone didnt work... so we reutrned home, planned and did a bit of studies, then left to teach our neighbors. we started teaching them the 10 commandments! but they talk a lot so we didnt even finish all of them! then that night we got to do skype! so that was awesome!

Today: this morning we had our zone activity. and we played some sports... but thats it!

heres some scriptures from the book of mormon i like:

Alma 17:9  And it came to pass that they journeyed many days in the wilderness, and they fasted much and prayed much that the Lord would grant unto them a portion of his Spirit to go with them, and abide with them, that they might be an instrument in the hands of God to bring, if it were possible, their brethren, the Lamanites, to the knowledge of the truth...

Alma 42:31

 And now, O my son, ye are called of God to preach the word unto this people. And now, my son, go thy way, declare the word with truth and soberness, that thou mayest bring souls unto repentance, that the great plan of mercy may have claim upon them. And may God grant unto you even according to my words. Amen.

so i hope you guys liked these.
