Almost Miracle... :/

This week we had a miracle that was later attacked by the devil ...
On Tuesday we found a member in the street we started talking to her, about an investigator who is the girlfriend of her son and has gone to church 3 times. And she told us she's going to the United States next Wednesday. Then we set an appointment for the next day in the member's house because the member's son's girlfriend is the investigator. Then we had the appointment everything was great she was very excited to be baptized. And I was with Elder Liwanag (DL) then we did the interview. And passed everything ready for Saturday. And we set the appointment to gather and plan every Friday in the morning. And we came at this time and well she did not come said he had headaches. Then we call it to plan it. He did not answer, for the whole day. Then, we continued working and sat with Elder Miller (the missionary who found her). He was not answering then we went to his house. And we answered the boyfriends dad, a very active member and everything, rejected us saying that it is not a good time. And then we found out that this investigator was inside and that she wanted our help in the situation ... And in the end she did not get baptized in the day.
But you have to continue no more! :)
(sorry if it's hard to understand I wrote it first in Spanish then well google translate.) haha 
But also had a great week! with 2 intercmbios and I did 2 baptismal interviews, and one crazy Saturday!! haha 
Well my day with Elder Miller the AP:
The plan was to go around our zona to put people wwith a baptismal date. and well at the end of the day we did 2, but we could have done a lot more but we ran into a couple of problems... or more like ran into another car... haha So we were going to pick up the Hermanas to do the appointment. But the streets here arent very big and well in a big van, with 2 parked cars on each side didnt really fit. and well He ended up touching one car barely, and when the owner came out he saw that we were gringos and thought $$$. So I Starterd by being nice and said lets change #s and move on, but they didnt like that. Then the Hmas came over to help. and well they wanted money and then for some reason we had to follow them so we did and then pulled out my Espada and so did hma Rueda and we finished the story changing #s and they arent going to get anything haha. But It was fun!! Haha 

 Navidad!! :)
Elder Wood stole my Camera! haha 
I hope you all have a great week!

What the people Need.

In the Mision Chile Concepción our focus right now is finding people for their needs through inspired questions.
And also using these questions to teach. And well I know that it works. And works quite well.
The other week, One day we were just walking in my sector and well I got a little lost with the plans that we had put and well were in a interchange of comps so I was with Elder Bierman, so I didn't have the help of elder Tobar to remember where it was. But when We looked around there was a Girl playing soccer with her little cousin. So we decided to talk to her. And well in about 5 min. and 5 good questions, We got to know that her name is Milson, she is 19, studing in la U de conce, and that Her dad died 2 months ago along with many other family members this year. 
and that she was doubting about God and isnt sure if He exists. But with 1 more question and a couple of testimonies. She knows and now wants to know more in how she can hug her dad again and be baptized for herself and for him! 
That was awesome!! I know that God lead us right to her! 
And I know that this gospel will help her and all the other children of God :) 

But it was a great week! 
Hope you all have a Great one!
