Well...everyone in Chile is beyond happy today (besides
Hermana Chamorro) since we are Copa America Champions again!!!!! Yesterday I
would be lying if I said we slept since there was so much noise all night. We
were able to watch the Chile v. Colombia game on Tuesday, or at least the first
half but didn't watch the final yesterday since it was on Sunday. But I'm just
happy Chile won!
Argentina beat USA in the Copa America. Catie had to wear an Argentina jersey to deliver on their bet |
This week was great and I was able to see Hermana Challco
again!!! On Monday night Hermana Challco, Hermana Palomino, and Hermana Pebbles
slept in the pension. It was so fun to get the scoop on Tocopilla and know that
everyone is doing well. Hermana Challco took good care of Tocopilla and I'm
excited to have here nearby.
Catie and Hernama Challco! |
An investigator Fresia came to church yesterday with her
faimly. Her son is a recent convert and we are trying to help Fresia also prepare to be baptized.
We found lots of new famlies this week which was fantastic!
We also went to visit one of our investigators Erika this week who is 7th day
Adventist. She always tries to bible bash us and this was our last attempt. Whe
we got there her grandson let us in and when we walked into the living room
here daughter was there and 2 preachers from church. We listened as they talked
about the bible and then were able to teach about he pre-existence and the
fall. Erika's daughter was attacking us but we continued to bear testimony and
pulled out a few scriptures from the bible and Book of Mormon to help her
understand. The spirit was super strong and at one point her pastor got mad at
her and told her to listen to what we were saying. It went silent and she
quietly listened. In the end her pastor accepted a Book of Mormon and a
pamphlet. I think we touched his heart.
Sorry for such a short email. Today is a holiday here and
it's been hard to get a hold of internet!
Love you all!!
Oh and change of mission president this week! I feel so
blessed to have served with the Daltons but am so excited to meet the
Ferreiras!!! (And family, pretty cool that you could meet them this week!!!)
