I LOVE my sector here in Santiago! There is so much energy, and the people here are actually a lot more willing to talk and listen! We have had many, many miracles with the other members here. Really that makes ALL the difference! We didn´t get to teach a lot, but we had so many run-ins with less actives, members, and people on the street, with whom we could share our testimonies!
This week we really tried to find new people to teach, but we have one family that was being visited by the last sisters too. They are Carlos and Celia (Dad and Mom), Estefiny, Caraima, and Carlita (daughters and one is a less-active member). They are so sweet and humble! They moved here from Peru (there are more Peruvians than Chileans in our sector :) ) about 2 years ago. They have a lot of problems within their family, and we are working hard to help them make and achieve goals -Together!
We also started teaching this older lady, who lives with her two grandsons; one of which is..........a pro wrestler (SPELLING when you fight people for money) Yup :) pretty cool right? They have a lot of potential and were excited to see them progress! The other grandson doesn´t believe in God, so were looking for ways to help him see God in his life!
This week Elder Nelson from the 12 apostles came to talk with us!!!! It was amazing! I learned that more than anything we need to trust in the Lord:
¨Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.
In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.¨ (Proverbs 3:5) and when we do, well, watch out world, because we can´t fail! I learned this week that trusting in the Lord doesn´t mean you will have all the success in the world, but it does mean that you will be Happy!
I pray that you all can trust a little more in Christ this week and feel just a little bit more of his joy!
Sed de buen animo!!!
