The last time

Well This was a wonderful emotion filled last week.

But I could still do lots of work! actually almost did more than i got done in my first cambio! I taught 73 lessons and had 1 baptism! Was great! 

But the they always save the best for last. and well In my life i have never shed a tear before. but on  On Sunday I had my last interview with Presidente Catala and well it came rolling down, haha

Then yesterday we had our last supper with my group and that was one of the most powerful meetings ive ever been in! Was 3 hours of pure Spirit no mas! Was really good! cuz we finished with our testimonies, and thats what I what to leave here with too...

In these 2 years I really have felt the Lords help in everything I do. He has been by my side helping me be hyped, to find people to teach, teaching, testifying, working with members, helping companions, and just working hard he has helped me so much, and I love this work because on the way, I got to become His friend, and really really get to know My Savior and Redeemer. I know that He lives and loves everyone of us. Im very grateful for these 2 years that I could work with Him, and for His eternal sacrifice in The Atonement. So that we can have eternal happiness and joy for ever! 

I know that this is His Church, that The Book of Mormon is the Word of God! and anyone that reads it and applies the message to their lives will be closer to Him and find Him. I know that He will never leave us and is always waiting for us to help us and guide us to return to Our Father in Heaven. Miracles happen. Families can be Together Forever! only because we have Temples today! Just "Do Good"TM and it will be all right. That means work work work, be obedient with exactness, and blessings come.

He loves us, and I love Him.

In the name of Jesus Christ, Amen. 

See you all soon,

This week was so great! 

I just want to tell one story about a Miracle that was presented before my eyes.

So for the Zone plan we needed to do something to get some more baptisms for this month to get 100 in June. So we decided to pray everyday at 10am and 10:32pm for some specific names of people that can be baptized this month, there was a list of 20 names and only 5 had a baptismal date so we had to get working. We also planned to do a Zone fast friday to saturday. and well we saw many miracles, that now we have 12 with a baptismal date!! yeah!! 

and well 1 of these is from our sector... So saturday  about 30 minutes after ending the fast I got a call from Brother Osta, asking a couple of questions and well ending by telling me that his grand daughter wants to get baptized this next week. She will be baptized on my last day :) and well thats not the best part... She is acutally not from Chile... she flew from Orlando Florida, USA a Ginga! so that her grandpa could baptize her! and well for those of you who dont know  My dad served his mission in Orlando Florida! So my last baptism will be someone from his mission. Well God was just holding the best for last :) 

And well i can testify that Fasting works so good! when you do it with a good purpose and real intent, then God will surprise you with what he can do! 

Cool thing too that it happened on Drakes Bday! 

Was a great feeling, its what every son in this world wants is to be like their Dad.

Have a Great week! 

Next week will be my last letter.

and ill see you all Soon ;)

 Sweet 16 plan

The path to the tree of life

starts with baptism ;)haha 

2 minute drill... More like 2 week drill!

​​This week was a great week! 

My name is on the Bye Board... That means got to work a little harder and faster.

But always Calm, Cool, and Collected! ;) 

Last week in the house we had the projector and so we watched the Conf for the youth!! really good! But for me at least it was really easy to do the 7 day social media fast ;) ...

I had my last ZoneConference this week. and this is my Zone! 

It was great first off cuz during our activity to finish i was just talking and then came to my mind to motivate them so came into my head a pep up talk that i watched before every game that i played, and traslated it and aplied it to the mision and wow the Spirit was sooo strong!! 

Also cuz it was my last one, to start the missionaries that are going home give there testimony and well I was the only one thankfully. So i got to do that, never thought that that day would come, seeing so many do the same, then it was my turn. And when I sat down it was Presidents turn to teach us and 

I will never forget the words that he said about me... almost cried :) ;)

Also in my interview! :) 

Our apartment almost exploded one day haha from a gas leek! 

The circus put their tents right by our church! haha They wanted the event to be more spiritual! haha 

Sweet activity in the ward this week!

 

We went to the Beach today as a District!! 

​​Pretty fun! 

This week i also got to Train the Stake leaders about how we can work together to prepare us for the Temple! with Hmo. Hidalgo from our ward and also Prez Catala! 

Thanks 

Have a great week!

Record Broken.... Again

Well it was another wonderfull week! 

We taught 62 lessones this week! that is the most i have ever done in my whole mission! But it was soo great! Cuz we found so many great people! 

Kept working with Natalia and now her kids! 

but this week was awesome! So here in our mission you can find someone and baptize them in 4 weeks. and with that in mind Saturday at night was like my last night to find someone and baptize them before i go and well walking Saturday in the night knocking and talking with everyone possible, we came to one street and there was a lady just outside her house chilling and so we talked with her and in a little bit her family all got there and they invited us in cuz it was cold, so we went in. and they gave us some hot chocolate and eggs and bread and cookies! once! was good then we shared a little bit and well it touched one of them so much that the next morning when we called to see if they were coming she said well im just putting the clothes on my son and getting ready! :) but she lives closer to a other chapel so she just went to that one but couldnt find it so she just went to a random church :) but the next week we are going to look for her :)

The next story is that I did a fast to see a miracle for someone to just come to church ready, and well there was a girl named Ana that saw our Church and said she wanted to go so she taled to one of her friends who is a member and came and it couldnt have been more perfect cuz then the Gospel Principals was on Baptism and well after that we took her to the pila and now wants to get baptized! :) so now is getting ready for the 23rd of June :) 

Great week! 

Hope you all have a good one too!

Make Islands!

Well this week was a great one! We had a plan de Zone that was Volcano T-Sur! 

Because we needed an EXPLOTION!! And as the lava(effort from missionary) explodes and has contact with the water(baptism) it makes and island(strong member)! so we were working hard with that in mind and well I wanted enough islands in the zone to make a country like The Philipines but we werent that lucky but we had to stick with a state like Hawaii! haha 

In our sector this week we found soooo many great poeple and families! 

But one of them came through and went to church her name is Natalia and well we found her just walking down the street one day at like 4 in the afternoon and well i felt prompted to knock on a surtain door but i thought to myself but ive already talked with this family and they are all into drugs and soooo, but then the spirit said Just Do it! and then i yelled alo! and at first the dad came out and said "no no no!" but their was someone that was just visiting right at that exact time that in the background saw us and came running out, and at first i thought she was a little taken with the drugs but then i realized that she needed us and was asking for help to change her life because just the night before her niece had just died at the age of 2. so with the BoM in hand shared some scriptures. And after that she said "I know that you are sent from the heavans, and I will do what ever you say, If you ask me to go to your church i will go to your church, if you ask me to stop smoking i will stop." and well she keeps her promise and came to church and now is preparing herself to be baptized the 16th of June! :) but she didnt come olone to church she also brought her less-active sister! and at church the gospel priciples class was just right on Repentance and she cried but in a good way! and she loved The church and is going to bring her kids the next week!! 

And she also wants to learn English along the way! haha she said.

That was the good story from the week! 

and lots of other stoies happened like this in the zone! It was so great! :) 

It soo worked! :) 

The President of the Stake also asked if we could de a Zone Attack on one ward and it was sooo good cuz this ward doesnt have missionaries! and we found a whole lot of people that want to get baptized! yeah!! 

I hope you all have a wonderful awesome week! 

and that you can "Do Good"TM

This last week was a great one being in a trio! We got a lot done working in both sectors was a little crazy but fun! 

One good story from this week was one night we were just walking to go and find but i had to go to the bathroom and there was a member close by so we went there and one of their kids Matias who is 10 had a friend over Fransisco! So we showed a cool video and invited him to church and he wanted to go. Then we ran over to his moms house to ask if he could go and she said yes! and then on Sunday They were all there bright and early, well not really cuz it was day light savings day here so we got another hour of sleep which was Bakan! but awayways he was there then we showed him the font and now has a baptismal date for the 2nd of June!and when the member took the Fransisco back to his house he talked with the mom a little about what we did and about baptism and she loved it! so all good there!!

Still in Action TWM!!

This week was really good! 

We had The Baptism of Josefina! What a great story! 

We found her 3 weeks ago. The day before General Conference! She went and we put her with a baptismal Date in the fount and she accepted and then she went and watched conference. And at that point we hadn't even taught a single lesson to her! But since that point she has not stopped! She said that she gained a testimony of everything with just looking at us the first time, because when she saw ... well I'll just tell the story. :)

So we were just touching some doors to find more in this area where we didn't work a lot. And here in Chile to knock you yell,  "Ahlo!" and when we yelled at Josefina`s house she was expecting her grandson and she recognized my voice as if it were his and so without looking she pushed the button to open the gate outside and to her surprise there were "2 angeles sent from Heaven outside my house holding a picture of Jesus Christ and a Big Beautiful Building, so I listened to what they said and felt joy in these 10 minutes that they invited me to a Big Conference and listen to someone called a Prophet that talks with Christ, To help us in our lives as he has always done" I know that she was prepared and we were guided that day by The One who knows all things :)

Was a good time! She is so strong that even when her son came into town telling her that we are devil worshipers and that God was going to Punish her if she got baptized in our Church, she got a little scared to hurt her family no mas, and told them "I don't know what you guys are talking about because these people are the best people that I know, and they worship God and are way better Christians than you are!" that was cool! 

And had another cool story this week when we helped an athiest believe in God in 10 minutes and gave him a BoM and him and his sister are now going to find where there parents are that past away... :)  

But it was a great week :) with it all! :)

Love this work and these people :)

Have a great one!

The White Mamba in his Suit ;)

I don't know how but people got to know what my nickname is haha 

But this week was very good! We got a lot done! 

We had an open house and we dressed up and had a stand in front of the Baptismal font and invited all to be baptized and every single person that came accepted! It was very powerful cuz we only had 5 min to do it with everyone but the Spirit guides everything we do correctly so that was fun to be a part of :) 

The bishop took my camera haha Bishop and Old High priest group leader haha 

Barrio Bio Bio Missionary Work! 6 missionaries! Bang! 

Yep.

and Facha=Swag

Making cookies with Beesley :)

We also had 2 FHE this week one at church and other in a members house. In the church we played a Gospel Jeopardy game fun! And we have a gator from Equador that is really progressing a lot and is very interested in the church, she came to both FHE and the 2nd one she cried a lot cuz the family shared about Eternal Families and she comes from a Jehovas Witness family that doesn't really believe in that. But at the end as she was crying a lot that all of her family died a while ago. So now she knows that it is possible to see them again and help them too in the Temple!! :) That was cool :)

Hope you all had a great week!!
