Helping paint a house and 2 WEEKS left!!



ALOHA. hahah just kidding I am in Chile, here we say HOLA.

So here is the run down of my crazy life.

Tuesday. So we walked some more and contacted.

Wednesday. We had lunch with Hermana Gilda. She is so sweet. I love hearing her mission stories. Then we visited Jorge and Maribel with Javiera Palma. Jorge and Maribel had a friend over who is from Colombia and we were also able to share with her too!  Then we found a new investigator named Josefina. She looks ten times more gringa than me but she is one hundred percent Chilean. She has four little crazy kids and makes a killer kuchen.

Thursday. So Hermano Aldo and Hermana Patricia called us and asked us if we could help them paint and we said YES of course. I think I might go pro because I really love painting houses and my technique isn't too bad. They gave us completos to say thank you. Then we had a meeting with our new mission leader, Nicolas Tidie from Argentina. He is great and super pumped to help us. WAHOO missionary work.









Friday. Day of honor in the temple for all the missionaries that went home on the 1st and me. We did a session in the temple. What a blessing it has been to have the temple in my mission. Then we went to  President´s house to eat lunch. We had sloppy joes and ice cream sandwiches. Then President gave us some advise, we read some scriptures and then wrote in a book for the Morgans. It was a little strange because it was a very relaxing day.

Saturday. Lunch with the family Ampuero. They are really sweet. I don't know why but they seem to like me a lot which means I must be doing something right. Then there was a Relief Society activity on healthy food (with free samples) and when there is the words free food the missionaries are there. But Hermana B Silva and I went to support the Relief Society... Also I had an impression to call the Hermanas in Ñuñoa 1. I gave them a call and they told me that they were so happy I called because something had happened to them that had scared them and that they were grateful that I was there to help them. I know it was a little thing but it just showed me how much heavenly father cares about us and that he puts people in our way to help us.

Sunday. JORGE RODRIGUEZ came to church. And our teacher of gospel principles is an RM who is awesome. Jorge really loved it. Then we had lunch with familia Galvez. They are another family that I love. They are so dang sweet and one day going to visit me in New York. So then we visited Gozalo and Fabiola. They are super awesome and have like a million questions. After we went and visited Hermana Veronica and she is doing a little better.

Monday. CAMBIOS. Transfer. So I only have 2 weeks left and I am going to spend them in ÑUÑOA 2 with HERMANA B SILVA and Hermana B Silva is going to TRAIN A GRINGA. So I am going to be spending my last 2 weeks in a trio. ​A scripture that I really like this week is in Mosiah 2:34 "knoweth that ye are eternally indebted to your heavenly Father." I think something that I have come to learn on the mission is how much my savior and father in heaven have done for me.

Love you all. Have a great week.
