In his time and season

Today we are in Santiago to buy some stuff. It's been awhile since I've been here for a p day traveling around in the metro/subway. It kind of feels like coming back home :) I really love this city.

We have been meeting often with Juan Pablo and Karen. Juan Pablo used to be a missionary that is really cool but doesn't go to church anymore. Karen is his wife that is really interested in joining the church. She asks a lot of questions but what we have learned with her is that she wants to understand more with her heart than with her brain. She always says that she feels a little bit better each time we are with her. I think that is the key to missionary work. Not anything drastic or serious but every visit a subtle but certain love is present. It made me think of this scripture.

 58 And thus they all received the light of the countenance of 
their lord, every man in his hour, and in his time, 
and in his season—

On Sunday it rained like crazy. It hardly ever rains here, but when it does it rains really strong. We were outside getting soaking wet with all of our plans falling through. My comp got the idea of visiting an old contact that wasn't part of the plans. When we got there, the whole family was together and they told us that the dad of the family recently had a stroke and the doctor told them the only way he lives is if God provides a miracle. I had the chance to pray for him and it was an amazing experience. We're hoping that everything goes well for this family.

I love being in this zone. We all get a long really well. A lot of young missionaries with a lot of motivation to work hard so it's fun to be a part of that environment. 

Love you guys have a great week.
