Wow, so much
happened this week.
Friday we had a
Conference with President and the unexpected happened. He was telling us all
how much he loves us and getting super emotional and then he told us he has
cancer and he will be returning to his home in Mexico by the 16th of this
month! WHAT! I think all of our jaws dropped and then he started to cry and so
did his wife! I think every single missionary was crying, some were bawling.
All I know
about our new President is that he is from Wyoming and his wife doesn’t speak
any Spanish and they have three kids! I didn’t hear what is name was because I
was still trying to take in what President had said. I still can’t believe it!
He didn’t say what kind of cancer, just that he needs to receive
treatments! He then bore his testimony to us and so did sweet little Hermana
Obeso! Then we all got to take a picture with them and President gave all us
Hermanas a hug and he told me thank you for all my excitement to share the
gospel! I love him and his wife so much! So in two weeks we will be getting our
new President.
This week was
good just like always. I love Rio Bueno so much! We are teaching a girl named
Carla and she is 15 and loves our Church. She comes every week with her uncle
literally every week! So we are going to work and fast for her parents to let
her get baptized on the 24th of this month for her 16th birthday! She is
amazing! I love the families here and they are always so willing to help us
out! Chile is getting ready for their Independence Day which is 18th of this
month and I love seeing red, white, and blue everywhere! Also spring is coming
and I didn’t even have to wear a jacket today. Everything is getting more and
more beautiful! I love Chile so much! Not much really happened this week but every
day we are looking for more people that are ready to listen to us! I love being
a missionary and sharing this light with others! I feel so blessed to have had
President Obeso! He is such a power leader and so loving and has the strongest
testimony ever! He said he wants to see us after the mission with our spouse and
to tell him that we are married in the temple and doing well! Sorry I wish I
had more to write but I want to send more pictures of my beautiful Chile! Thank
you for all your love and support!
