Off to see some Country

11/17/2007

We are going on a trip today with the Allen’s. we are going to a place called las aguas calientes. It should be fun. I will write in the afternoon when we get back. I broke my camera. I think it still works but the pictures part doesn’t work, I don’t remember what it is called in English, it shows the break, I am sure you can get it fixed, I will probably just wait to get home to fix it.

Mom, what are the plans for Chile. hna agurto emailed me and said that the temple is going to be closed when they have it planned to get married so they are getting married the 25th or something like that. she asked if we could change our plans but i am sure that costs an arm and a leg. it sucks because that is why we are doing it all. but i don’t know. if not, oh well. we can only do what we can do. thanks for everything. i will write later. tell dad to write, he is getting lazy writing me these days.

Well, okay, this week was interesting. I will fill you all in a bit on the week.

Well, about granny that was a shocker. It was hard for me to take, not going to lie. It hit me hard. But I am doing better now. There is nothing I can do but pray for her. That is life. I feel really bad for her and only pray that she will last at least two more months. I will probably be home January 18th, so two more months and we are good to go and the time flies by. So keep her strong.

Today we went with hna and elder Allen to a place call pehyue and it was gorgeous, it was fun to. I will send pictures but I don’t have any and I don’t know why my camera isn’t´ working I am going to pray a lot and play with it a bit and then see what to do. Then, if not, go to a place next week and see what they can do for me.

Dad, I was thinking about it the other day. Thank you for going on a mission, for setting that example.

I saw hna iribarra the other day at the conference. She was my first newbie. It was fun to see her and chat with her for a bit. It is so difficult being with the newbies. It is really hard, I would just rather be with a normal companion. But I haven’t had a whole lot of normal transfers on the mission.

Happy thanksgiving to all.

Happy birthday Paige.

I am not going to write much this week so I can write granny.

I am doing fine, we are doing fine. In a couple months I can tell you about a miracle that happened yesterday. Pretty much we saved a man’s live, he told us everything and was ready to rent a hotel room and drink and take pills until he killed himself. We are going by today so to see how he is doing today. I had noooooooooo clue what to say or do but just knew I had to talk to him. I am so glad the spirit prompted me so strongly and that I followed it and didn’t worry about what to say because in the end the spirit told me and things turned out well. We have to get him to stop drinking and face life. It was veeryyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy interesting experience….only on the mission. I love the gift of the holy ghost. Maybe I haven’t had a whole baptisms on the mission but time after time I have seen how the lord has used us to help someone right at the right moment. How amazing is that. Only the true church of Jesus Christ can do that because it is the only one that can receive revelation. What a blessing we have.

Thanks for everything you do. Appreciate it.

With hna agurto´s wedding. I don’t´ know if we can be in Santiago the 25th for her wedding at 6pm or not. it is kind of irritating that just now she is telling them and that is why we are coming back in the first place. But patience, it is for a reason, everything happens for a reason.

I got the shoes, thanks soooooooooo much. They look soooooooooooooooooo different. I will take a picture and then throw the others away, they are embarrassing.
