Thats a name of a person we tried to find this week. Ive been saying it nonstop in my head.

Water in the ceilings.. condensation on the walls.. yup. The elders left the baptismal font running hot water all week after their baptism last sunday. They said that a good chunk of the mission is dealing with baptismal font problems so yay! Marked off my first one this week!

Our friend who is 12 couldnt come to church because her ride canceled on us. I was praying while the church service was starting and Dayis just walks in and sits with us. She said she walked herself to an hermanas house, knocked the door, and made her take her to church. HAHAAA I LOVE GOD!!

We baptized my friend Loreto yesterday!

The dog we named Comida is always in town and sometimes follows us. Well these two little 7 year old girls run around this apartment complex and love Comida. Comida ran away, and the little girls started screaming "COMIDAAAA". The neighbors were giving weird looks, but you gotta give it to them. They are just girls who love Comida.

My spanish is becoming "chilean" as my comp said. I can understand basic normal spanish but I still struggle with understanding chilean spanish. So every day my companion and I just have conversations. She is very chilean so its good practice.


If we first seek to love God and Jesus Christ, everything else God asks us to do will be easier—including the commandment to love others.

Si primero procuramos amar a Dios y a Jesucristo, todo lo demás que Dios nos pida hacer será más fácil, incluso el mandamiento de amar a los demás.

Be kind and love others. You can control your own actions, choose to be like Christ.

Death by cats

I ate lunch at a sister's house! She had 5 cats and two dogs. She made pizzas for us by hand, really really yummy. But I think the pizzas had cat dander in it... annnd Im allergic to cats. so before I knew it I began sneezing sniffling and my lungs began to swell. I should have known that when my companion was sniffling too it would be bad. Later that day I went to a house with six cats. Yippee. At least the lessons went well and they felt loved. Im teaching a pregnant lady. She had her baby yesterday! Super cool and super fun text to receive. We were teaching Eduardo for a while. In our last lesson he said at the end "I don't want to take anymore lessons from you.. but here are some cookies" (so we dont hate him I'm assuming) it was kinda funny but also pretty sad.  But we got break up cookies! Cooked milanesa with Elder Ballejos, Elder Johnson, Hermana Mcmullin, and a family from our ward. It is an Argentinian dish so Ballejos was very proud. Learning more and t...

Proposals

  Hola todos! I got proposed to twice. One time went like this. "How do i get closer to God?"  "Go to church! Its down the road every Sunday at nine am!" "Okay. I want to marry one of you." Real slick. I was able to serve in the city for a day! In the mission we have one day every transfer where you get to switch companions. I was sent to the city with Hermana Crespo from Bolivia. We visited this home that housed about 20 people. Five little boys were playing soccer in the "house". I use quotes because there wasn't a roof in this section of the house. Well they allll started calling me "tia tia tia!" And I said "ay! Call me Hermana" and they all said "okay okay."       Ten mins later they started calling me "ella ella!" Exactly how my first name sounds.... huhhh?? Weird because they don't know my first name! Well I guess these kids call women "ella" because shortly later I heard them call ...
