This week we got to go to the Temple!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The temple is a type of chapel where we make more covenants (promises with God like baptism and marriage) with God.  Wow, it was awesome after more than a year to be in the Temple!

In this sector, our biggest problem is finding people a second time : ) Here in Santiago, the people work... a lot!! We find tons of amazing people, but when we come back, we can’t find them in their houses. We are working really hard with this and putting goals in place to fix this problem.

One of these investigadors is Joselyn. We called her, passed by when we could, and still couldn’t find her. I had nearly given up hope, but. . . yesterday we happened to be passing by when she was entering her house : ) I was so pumped! We got to share about the Book of Mormon, and she understood really well! The best part is that she’s excited about talking to her. . . I don’t really know what its called in English. . . when they are together (with kids) but not married? Well, just to make it easer and I’ll say her husband. She is excited to talk with her husband and invite him to listen to our message too!!! Yay! 

This week was all about families! We worked hard this week to talk to all the families on the street, because this Gospel blesses families! That’s why I’m here, to help families be happy : )

We also found a less active family who we have been searching for! They don’t have much money, but through their faith, they are seeing miracles! When Vicky, the mom, made lunch, she only put in half of a bag of pasta into the pot, because they didn’t have more. But when she came back to finish cooking, the pot was full.  God is so very aware of us. Especially of our families! He loves our families, and I know that we can stay with them Forever! 

 

This week my brother Austin and Ariel (my almost sister-in-law) will be getting married in the temple. We believe that when we get married in the temple we are sealed together forever. I am sooo very happy for them and for the family that they are starting!!!! Congrats!!!!!!!

I love you all!

SED DE BUEN ANIMO!

HAPPY LATE MOTHERS DAY!!! I just adore my mother. I don’t know where I would be without her, but I know it wouldn’t be serving the Lord in Chile : ) How grateful I am for her!  This is a video that really pinpoints how very important motherhood really is!

This week was pretty normal (other then talking with my family yesterday for Mother’s Day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!): going on lots of splits with the other sisters, praying for poeple, working with those poeple to see our prayers answered, and praying some more : ) This week I got to do a split with a Sister Smith from Texas : ) I loved being with a real good old Southern girl : ) 

We also found lots a families! Wow, am I grateful for my family! I never realized that maybe it was hard to have that unity and happiness in the home, because with the gospel of Christ it isn’t  : ) Well, maybe it still is still a little hard but doable : ) 

We met  a mother from Peru named Cresencia who lives with her 6 grown daughters and their families! Her main interest is peace in her home. I was so happy to be able to promise her that this peace is within reach! I know that when we work to be more like Christ the FIRST thing he blesses is our families! Before our work, before our social life, or our love life, he blesses the Family! 

I have seen this with Matias and his family (His mom and grandma are less active members who are coming back to church!) I can see a difference in their home : ) They have less arguments, they are praying together, and they are happy! Also, they have found jobs and other temporal blessings! 

I love this Gospel, I love my God, and I love seeing and promising to others that the blessings of God, peace, love, and calmness, all come when we follow him : )

Love you!

SED DE BUEN ANIMO!

This week has been great! We had lots of Splits with the girls in our group and today we went to a lake with them to go paddle boating!! BEST DAY EVER : ) 
I am really trying hard to follow the Spirit more! This week I decided that I am going to talk with literally everyone I can! It has brought us lots of miracles. Though not all of the people we talk with are ready to accept this gospel we have made differences in their lives through the comfort and encouragement we are able to give!
My favorite part of this week was our lesson with Danela! She is a member of our ward who is less active because she is sick. She is a young mom and has been really struggling. When we showed her a video about holding on through trials (here is the video (its one of my favs)
http://www.mormonchannel.org/blog/post/good-things-to-come
) she burst into tears. I quickly moved to set next to her so she could cry on my shoulder. She told us about some problems her family is facing and how we always come just when she needs it and says just what she needs to hear. HOW GREATFUL I AM to have and follow the spirit! We do not change lifes we are just the tool with which God does his work. I know that everyone of us can be the hands of Christ here in the earth that he is waiting to work miracles if we only lend our hands and energy to him we will be part of his bring to pass great changes : ) 
I love you all and hope you can feel the holy spirit guiding your hands this week!

SHORT AND SWEET

Life is good! This week has been great! 

We found a women SUPER prepared to hear the gospel! She is a lawyer and has never believed in, but she wants to! She is willing to do everything in her power to find her faith! Her name is Angela. 

We are teaching 2 families who are part-members (some of the family are members and others haven’t been baptized yet), and both came to church with us this Sunday! One ended up getting very lost.  The grandma, Maria, (who isn’t a member) was determined, and they ended up walking 20 city blocks to find the chapel!! WOW! 

I know God loves us, I know that this is his gospel, and I know he works miracles!

SED DE BIEN ANIMO!!
