More Trials then Miracles Happen!




10/13/2007


Yeah, dad thanks for your advice but we are the only sisters around here. The closest ones are about an hour away. So that makes things difficult to do divisions or splits. But such is life.
So what is this thing that dad has this, wii, I have nooooooooooooooooooo clue what on earth it is. I am out of the loop, I have no clue. Sorry, I am a missionary bien enfocada en la obra del seƱor. Anway. Erica, I go the blog this week and the picture of Allison, it was really cute. Thanks for the blog, Ii was really cute, I read through it and looked at all the pictures, there are some good ones on there.

So, I thought that I was going to die this week. It was one of the hardest things ever. I am soooooooooooooooooo sick of talking to the president, I am sick of interviews and going to his house. I had three interviews with him this week, talked to him on the phone like every day. I am soooooo over it. My companion is incredible sometimes. Lets just say that I have never been insulted and treated so poorly like I have been by some of my companions on the mission, the worst Is that you live together and you are supposed to have the spirit and how does that work out. I was dumbfounded by some of the things that she told me. I just took it and let her say what she wanted. Then the pres chewed her out pretty good I am sure. I asked her why on earth she said all those things to me that were jus t lies but most of the below the belt and hurt a lot. She said she didn’t know. Pres says it is like laman and lemuel with nephi. They knew the truth, they had testimonies, were just wicked. He say s that my compaino is my most important convert. I told him that if she was an investigator I would have left her already and stopped going by . she hasn’t been willing at all the take the blame or responsibility and shoves everythingggggggggggg off on me. But anyway, I don’t want to sit and complain about her, maybe when you have a few hours one day I can tell you all about it and you wouldn’t believe me. So, she has been good for a couple of days. I have been sooooooooooooooooooooooooooo stressed in everything and we all know that I am not stressed person, frustrated and upset and we all know that i don’t get mad either. A lot of things have happened in this last month. We know I don’t yell either but I was talking to her fairly firmly and stern. But the pres talked to her for a long long time and I think things will be moving up.

We had a miracle happen this week, it was so awesome because I have missed soooooooooo much doing what normal missionaries do and working by the spirit and seeing the small miracles every day. So we went on divisions, my companion went t with an hna and the hna allen, the senior missionary that we lived with , she went out with me and her husband with the elders. So we were way far away from the house and here you just walk and it was getting late and all of our appointments had fallen through, nobodyyyyyyyyyyyyyy was home . so I decided we would walk back towards home and go by a lady name veronica. So we headed down. One of the elders over a month ago was teaching a couple that lives in our sector and we have tried for over a month to find them and teach them. We were walking down the road to the other lady’s house and we had passed the house of this couple, but really passed it, one or two houses down, and all of a sudden I turned around and said, lets see if they are home and there is light on. So I went all the way back and their light was on. So we knocked, It was such an impulsive decision. They were there and let us in. hna allen doesn’t speak Spanish and she doesn’t understand it either. But we had theeeeeeeeeeee most spiritual les son and talked about the restoration. When I repeated the first vision It was amazing, the spirit was sooooooooo strong, hna allen bore a testimony so powerful. It was great. It was one of the best lessons I have had in a really long time, the spirit was sooooooo strong and they were so receptive. The wife is five months prego and they have only been together for a year and have kids with other people and aren’t married. So she walks us out, like they always do. And there on the doorstep she starts crying. She thanked us for going by because we were an answer to her prayer. She said before we got there they had been fighting hugeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee, and that s he was going to leave him for good but was waiting for god to give her an answer if that is really what she needed to do and that is when we got there and she knew it was her answers and that more and more she is seeing the our church is the true church and the book of mormon really is the word of god. It was so awesomeeeeeeeeeeeee.. to think that really god answered her prayers through us and that I listened and did what the spirit told me to do w hen I needed to do it. It all worked out soooooooooooooo perfectly. It was so awesome. It was such a spiritual experience. God really loves us and takes care of us. After a month of trying to find them and then right in the perfect moment we found them at the end of the day when we were heading towards the house and going to some one else’s house. It was awesome. I loved it, it pumped me up huge.

Mom, I was told by someone that goes to punta arenas all the time, the hotels here just aren’t the same like at home. And if you buy tickets for inside of chile instead of chile it is cheaper, but if you buy them from the states they charge you more. So if a Chilean buys them they are cheaper. Interesting. I don’t know where I would like to go to church here in chile. Just wherever we are going to be will be fine I am sure. It would be fun to go with Alejandra and her family but if it Isn’t´ like that it is no big deal. Whatever is fine with me.

mom ,thanks for all of your hard work, thanks for all you are doing for me. so that i can be able to see all the awesome people from here again before i won’t know when i will be able to see them again. thanks or your help. hope all is well at home. until next week, next Saturday. love , hna pratt
