May 25-June 1‏

Family and friends!

I love my life. Everything is great! Time flies by so fast and I’m having fun and learning a lot. I can’t believe it is already June! I have a desire to improve everyday. I’m so thankful for my companion for her love and example to me and the investigators.

This week we taught a woman whose husband died when he was receiving the missionaries and studying the doctrine. He had come to the conclusion that his church wasn’t true. One day the missionaries had an appointment with him but he had died that same day. I felt the Spirit prompt that her spouse had accepted the Restoration of the Gospel of Jesus Christ on the other side of the veil. I promised her that if she listened and prayed about this message that she would feel at peace finally after 10 years. And that if she acted on the answer that God would give her that she would be able to receive the covenants of baptism and eternal marriage. She and her mother live alone with her 13 year old daughter. The wife is catholic and the grandma is evangelical. They didn’t want another appointment but they said they would read the plan of Salvation and Happiness pamphlet.

Tomorrow is the baptism for Favian Yañez!!! I’m so excited for him. He has been waiting for this for a long time and now it has finally come! Really it is perfect timing because his Grandpa from Concepcion came to visit! Favian’s biggest dream is to have his father, Manuel, baptize him and now to have the grandpa there too is just the cherry on top.

There is a skilled man in our stake that took the missionaries to Torres del Paine before and he offered to take all of the missionaries this transfer. I’ve seen pictures of these beautiful mountains that God created for us and I would love to go see the pretty part of Punta Arenas. I would personally like to go hiking but of course nothing crazy and dangerous.

Have a great week!

I love you!
