Saving Chilean kids lives

 Im telling you guys, the sky here is different, its the most amazing thing youve ever seen.

                                          my mission buds. My comp loves his byu Christmas shirt ;)

I love hearing about Paul and Luke's basketball. That's awesome that they're doing so good! And I liked emma's photo as a zombie, and especially how sneaky mom was about the photobomb. :)

We had a really good week this week. In two more weeks I'll officially have six months in my sector. I love my sector!

On monday we passed by one of our investigators. His name is Alberto and he lives with his sister and his dad. When we first got into the house it was such a bad situation. Alberto and his sister were fighting and trying to get us to get involved and choose a side. We just listened to them fight for a little bit and after awhile we were like can we read a scripture together? So we read a little bit in the book of mormon. After they were still talking about what they were fighting about but after reading the book of mormon the environment was a lot different. There was such a sweet spirit in the house. It ended by them telling each other sorry and how much they loved each other. A little bit cheesy, but it was really cool. Jeff Franklin would've loved it (director of Full House.  Paul and Luke will love this reference.  Trust me).

I love all my investigators, but my favorite is Pedro. He is 21 years old. He honestly has such a good heart. Me and Elder Jimenez have gotten so close to him these last couple of months. This week after reading the Book of Mormon with him he told us that he knows the book of Mormon is true. I wish you guys could see the reaction of missionaries when people say things like that. It makes me so happy! I know the book of mormon is true and I know that this gospel provides a way to have a very deep and real relationship with the savior. Espero que el estè leyendo esto, porque soy famoso con mi blog y ahora el lo es tambièn jaja.

Friday night we had finished planning and were about ready to go to bed when we got a call from a member that said a bunch of kids were locked in the church-because the church has a gate around the outside of it and somebody let them in but left and locked the gate-and needed our help because we had keys. We had keys because the next day we were going to have piano and english class. So we ran over to the church. There was like 10 kids that all started cheering for us and yelling our names when we arrived.  Ive never felt so much like a rock star in my life. When we unlocked the gate all of them came running out hugging us telling us we saved their lives haha. I honestly love the people here but especially the kids so much. 

So yeah we had a good week this week. Oh yeah they banned coke in our mission. Everyone was so mad about it ha. Chileans drink coke with everything so we're all addicted and than they banned it. oh well. 

 

This scripture is the best knowledge I brought with me to Chile from our house. I find myself saying these words to investigators who dont feel alot of hope for their life over and over.  Thanks for making sure I always knew this.  Have a great week family.

Romans 8: 35, 37-39 

35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?

37 Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.

 38 For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come,

 39 Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able toseparate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
