I don’t know what to even say this week! It was
a long week ha-ha...
Last night everyone received their cambios but me and Hermana
Adams will be staying together for another cambio here in Libertad... WE ARE SO
EXCITED! As we have seen the Lord preparing so many people in our sectors!
Hermana Tripp (who was my companion) called me last night because she is a
Hermana Leader in another part of the mission to tell me that Javier, one of
the investigators me and Hermana Hanosek taught got baptized Saturday!!! I don’t
know if you guys remember me telling you about him but we found him walking by
the mission home one day when we went to pick up food from Hermana Isom and
from there on we had many lessons teaching him and he always came to church. I
knew from the moment I met him he would be baptized! When I heard that he had
been baptized I was filled with so much joy! I’m soooo grateful for Hermana
Isom called us that day to see if we wanted their leftover food… The Lord truly
works in amazing ways! Even though I didn’t get to teach him all the lessons I
truly felt how much he wanted to know of the truth! I AM SO HAPPY! I believe he
wants to serve a mission! I will attach a picture of us below for those of you
who don’t remember! I was just so happy hearing that he had been
baptized!
During our week, we have just been working and working! Helping
our investigators progress as much as possible! I just want them to be able to
understand everything at once but that’s not how it works ha-ha.
Now for the story of today... Yesterday we did not have p-day
because it was Labor Day here. So today the Zone Leaders had planned an
activity to go to the country about 15 minutes out of Puerto Montt... We were
on our way and got in a crash. I don’t remember how it truly all happened. I
just remember looking at my companion and she told me my nose was a little
cut... and then I looked back and a few Elders had bloody noses and one Hermana
had a hole in her lip. But really everyone is okay! The worst was a broken arm!
We were protected from something that could have been a lot worse! And we had
to take an ambulance to the hospital even though we were okay and within 10
minutes of sitting in the hospital an old little grandma comes in and starts
throwing up a ton of blood... it was insane... sorry if that’s too much information...
Lets just say the hospitals are a lot worse here in Chile. BUT I AM OKAY! Just
look like I got in a fight ha-ha. I know Heavenly Father was looking out for us
because the buses here do not have seat belts!
We have lots to do this week because of cambios and so tomorrow
we get to sit in the airport waiting for missionaries and help them get to
their sector! It’s going to be a great week and I feel so blessed! I love, love,
love being a missionary!! Happy Birthday shout out to my sweet beautiful
Grandma Falslev! And I am so excited to hear where my little brother Peyton
will be serving the Lord this week!!! Missions truly are life changing!
