Last week
I ate the first Hamburger from McDonalds in a very very long time. (It was so
good) People the food you have in the states is amazing!
Thursday
I did two baptism interviews for Elder Moltó and Elder Condorà we had a good
spiritual experience together.
There are
so many things happening right now. Elder Miranda and I are just trying to keep
the branch a float.
The Stake
President came yesterday which was nice to see some people from the stake, He
came to call Hno. Carvajal to be Branch President but Hno. Carvajal had to
work. So it continues with Pres. Cofre for the moment he's going for 13 years
as President. We had 41 people in church! that was fantastic, I was excited
although about 10 of them were from Antofagasta but it was still a good number.
Neythan Carvajal was baptized and it was beautiful. I played the piano and
learned to play a new song. (I love the look for Rainbows - that primary
song)
Right now
in our branch Elder Miranda teaches the youth class and I am teaching the
Primary with the help of a less active that we have been reactivating. There is a
lot of drama in the branch which is lame and sad because people lose their
amino and then their faith. Trying to keep things running smoothly in the church
and that members calm down and don't explode at one another. There are moments
were I feel like everything is falling around me, and others like right now
where I feel much calmer. That we're doing a good work. I often forget that
Elder Miranda has less than a month in the mission, and just ask him to do and
teach this and that and complete this work. He does it and does it well, as
well there are times when the youth unsupportable for him. Yesterday I learned
how MLS works more and how to do the finances of a Branch. The church is so
cool with all if it's programs that work perfectly.
These
weeks have gone by so quickly and it's exhausting, but I feel good. You're
always welcome to come and visit. Just keep following the Spirit all will be
well.
Thanks
