WEEK 3

 WEEK 3:

Last Wednesday my companion and I got to teach a lesson to Haley in Spanish over zoom! Thanks Haley for being patient with out bad Spanish and teaching us more than we taught you haha. 

On Thursday we had our first lesson over zoom with a native! It went super well and Fernanda was a super sweet older lady from Argentina! 
On Friday we had an earthquake!!! This super loud siren went off in the middle of preach my gospel class and all the teachers were panicking and the entire CCM met in this parking lot. There was so many people,  and the poor new missionaries that came the day before we're probably like "what's happening!" But it ended up being a tiny one, we couldn't feel it, sad 🥲 but it was kinda fun. 

On Sunday Hermana white and I gave the lesson for relief society! It ended up being really awesome! 

On Monday we played volleyball with out district and it was so fun, we are getting so good. But a big rip was I ripped a hole in my pants. Literally "big rip". 
Tuesday was super fun! We cleaned out an entire casa for service and in class we are using more spanish and playing lots of fun games. I like speaking Spanish it is so fun especially when you know enough vocab to get your idea across. During a break in our class we got a pic with a CCM policeman. We had an awesome devotional about the power of the book of Mormon! 
Some things I forgot to share about last week: 
- when I sat down at my gate at the Salt Lake City Airport, I looked at the ground and immediately saw a penny! I know Grandma Teresa is proud of me and is looking out for me, I love her!!!

Week 58

 This week we had a zone conference and it was truly amazing. I realized that people want and need this Gospel. If they can understand what it means to be baptized, there won´t be a single person who wouldn´t want to be baptized. It just depends if they can truly understand the doctrine. Understand that when we are baptized, the door to return back to Godś presence opens. The only way to start to access Godś power is through baptism. If the people can understand that the first step to living with their families for the eternities is by being baptized, they wouldn't have to fear it.  This week we got to put this into practice. We taught our friend Absalon about the importance of baptism and how his eternal progression relies on being baptized by someone that has the authority of God. He was a little concerned at first because he said, If I were to be baptized again, that means that it would invalidate the baptism that I already have had and all that I have experienced up until ...

  This week was super eye opening. I learned so much about all aspects of life. First of all on Tuesday we left with Sister Trythall, the mission president’s wife. And it was so fun to see our area from a different perspective and to hear her testimony and feel her spirit. This week I felt super grateful for every little thing I’ve lived through. I’m super grateful for this time I have to be super focused in changing myself and helping others to change.  I also had some opportunities to have deep conversations this week with a few different people. The first one I had was with my companion. We talked about how sometimes we feel like we don’t feel the spirit as strongly or as drastic of a difference and the truth is that we are so connected spiritually that I realized it's normal. It's normal that people in the street feel the spirit strongly and they share the hard things they’ve gone through or what they’re going through right now after talking to them for 3 minutes. And that...

  My last week in Chile! The best week ever! This week I just soaked up everything! Every lesson, every street contact. especially Sunday. It was a super sweet and spiritual Sunday! I got to give my last testimony and wow it was hard for me, but I just felt so much love looking at all the people I love and have served with for so long. I am sad to leave but excited for the next part of my life!  Some highlights from this week! Ignacio got baptized and confirmed! The baptismal meeting was so spiritual and Ignacio shared his testimony at the end and he started crying! Afterward he said that the spirit was so strong during the whole entire baptismal service and it all exceeded his expectations! That is a lot coming from him because he is a very intelligent, calculated person, so the fact that the spirit was stronger and hit him harder than he thought was really special! Our friend Javiera saw us doing all the prep to get everything ready for Ignacios baptism and she asked us how ...
