HELLO FAMILY!
This week was way good! I don't even
know where to start haha.
We had interviews with Presidente Kahnlein and
it was literally the craziest thing. Turns out, he's been waiting to
put us together in Placilla for a while because they're going to SPLIT
THE WARD!!! And he knows that we're the missionaries that need to be
here for it. Basically, his minimum requirement is 10 baptisms in the
next three months, three families, that all the converts from the last
two years are 100 percent active and paying tithing, and that church
attendance rises by 20 people by OUR WORK ALONE. So yeah, we have a big
task ahead of us, but he trusts in us, the Lord trusts in us, so I trust
in them and I know we can do it. Just a little insanity is happening in
the ward!! And today in the morning one of our zone leaders got changed
in emergency transfers (one of my very best friends in the mission, Elder Pinillos :(( SO sad about it) and one of the elders in my ward also
headed out, so we'll see what happens and who comes!!
Investigator
wise, we've found a lot of new investigators and had a bunch at church
and others are progressing a lot!! C now is going to be out of town
until November, which is a bummer, but he's going to church, reading,
praying, and living all the commandments, So I know he's gonna get back,
fast, and get baptized haha.
My companion and I get along SO WELL. We have the same taste in music and we both like to have fun and are
overly happy people (but realistic happy, not the fake kind that some
missionaries have.. GAH) President told my companion that she and I edify him and Hermana Kahnlein with how we are and that he's really
excited to see us together haha. But yeah, I love Hermana Page, we sang
all of the American songs in the English hymnbook today because we found
her American flag and also pledged allegiance to the flag, so you know
that we have a lot of fun haha.
Other than
that, things are going way well!! We literally see MIRACLES every day. I am so excited to be here in Placilla in this time!! Grand things are
going to happen (don't know if grand is the right word, sorry I'm
forgetting English haha) and I get to be a part of it :) Oh and also,
president told me I'm here until new years eve, so HERE WE GO, THREE
MONTH SPRINT!! :) Love you all, the church is true, and always always
trust in the spirit!!!

ALSO Lynn G Robbins came to our mission and talked to us, and he's awesome. And right before conference President Kahnlein talked about taking care
about which way we looked and all of that, and then ELDER ROBBINS talked
about it!! So this talk is like the theme of our mission haha watch it,
read it, it's amazing and changed my life. Seamos soldados valientes en
la batalla del señor.
