Hong Kong and Halloween

I'm completely shocked about the China  Hong Kong mission! I cannot believe it! I loved watching the video of Emma opening her call and Marie and Mom just screaming! It made me laugh so hard! I really wish I couldve been there to feel Emmas happiness.


Things here in Conchalì are going good. We found a lot of people this week so we were happy about that. We had zone conference on Wednesday. It's the first time I have gone to another chapel for zone conference because I've been in the same area almost my whole mission. Anyways it was awesome to meet up with old friends and be able to meet more missionaries. The doctor and the psychologist for the Santiago missions came and spoke to us and it was really good.  My takeaway is stop stressing so much, because the doctor and psychologist are overworked enough as it is ;)

Elizabeth is doing great. Thursday was my comps birthday and she invited us over to eat cake. Her family sang happy birthday to him in both Spanish and English, it was funny. Her family is SO good to us. We have only known them for a little over two weeks but it's as if we were life long friends. That is one thing that I love so much about being a missionary. She was eager to learn the ten commandments and loved the signs that we taught to her so that she could remember. 

We were also finally able to meet Magdalena's boyfriend. He's really cool and nice to us. We've taught them a few times and they are really receptive. Magdalena came to church with us on Sunday but Gabriel didn't. He's a little more stubborn but I guess that's a good thing. Stubborn in the right way can move mountains. Magdalena is already like a regular at the church because she is friends with everybody and everyone knows her son for being the one that runs up on the stand and makes faces at everybody :) 

Halloween on Saturday was great. We were able to take some pictures with kids in costumes again. The most common costume was a tie between batman and spiderman. The best costume was this little kid dressed up as a scary clown.

3 nephi 22 
For this, the waters of Noah unto me, for as I have sworn that the waters of Noah should no more go over the earth, so have I sworn that I would not be wroth with thee.
 10 For the mountains shall depart and the hills be removed, but my kindness shall not depart from thee, neither shall the covenant of my peace be removed, saith the Lord that hath mercy on thee.
 Love you guys.  Have a good week and give our Terry furture missionary a hug for me.
