Called To serve

HO HO HO LA! Merry Christmas! I do not know if I will be able to email next week since I will be SKYPING MY FAMILY NEXT WEEK!  Funny: 1. We were teaching this woman and she somehow related everything we said about the restoration to anything in her life. For example, "this gospel blesses families" and then she would go on to be like yeah and that is exactly why I cannot figure out my phone or yeah and that is how I bought my dog and that is why mexican food is my favorite. We were dying of laughter. 2. I ordered completos last week. I said without mayo. he thought I said without the hot dog meat as they are semi similar. So I am eating my completos and like 3/4th the way through I was like ok why does this tatse so strange and i opened it up and underneath all the avocado, tomato, and sauces was a big fat NOTHING. No meat haha. Lol. Cool: 1. We got to go to the other sector this week as the assistants called us to go and put a baptismal date for an investig...

Funny: 1. We taught a man who could not hear us so we were yelling. We left with him thinking my name was allan. 2. Quote from someone we tried to teach "We are going to live on Venus after this life" 3. Another Quote "I don't like God because he's prettier than me" 4. We were called of the devil and told we do not belive in jesus christ. I was like LOOK AT MY NAMETAG DUDE. # churchofjesuschristoflatterday saints Random: 1. Green onion heads are HUGE here. 2. Pears are so expensive which stinks because they were cheap like 3 weeks ago and I would eat like 3 everyday. 3. I heard the song "Echame La Culpa" by Demi Levato at a branch activity bowling night. Woah. Good song. 3 people came other than the misisoanries and the people in charge haha. Cool: 1. I am a sushi master. Having an asian in the house has its benefits. We all have our own bamboo mats. He also made us chocken adobo two times this week and we all made sushi ...

I have legit no time this week but just wnated to share my fav scripture of the week. St. Mark 8: 34-38. We need to always remember why are here on earth. What our purpose is. Some people are literally so lost and I want to help`them but you can only do so much. They have theirt free agency and we can just be examples. The KEY is finding the people who NEED the  gospel and are WILLING to have a change of heart like it says in the scriptures. My challenge to you is to share something on social media as our world is techy. Share a message as it will go way farther than one action (actions are good too). Tomorrow's video: day 5 of light the world is my branch prez  We finally got the pamphlets in French for the Haitians! Haha ALSO we put CHOOMY with a baptismal date for December 16th! The new elder in my house is from the Phillippines and he LOVES to cook so plus for me. We are going to make sushi today. My barnch wants me to dress up as santa or the grimch for our ...

I officially finished my 12 weeks of training! We recieved tranfer calls last night and my comp and I are staying in Linares! Whoooo I will be with my amazing branch for christmas and new years! I hope you all had a great thanksgiving! ALSO SHOUTOUT TO MY SISTER FOR REVEALING THE GENDER OF HER BABY. i WILL BE AN UNCLE TO BABY NUMBER 2 IN THE FAM (GIRL).   Random. 1: The grading scale for school in chile is out of 7. It is so much easier in america. 2: There are randomly naked barbie dolls EVERYWHERE here. Like evry house has one. 3: FROZEN JELLO. So good. 4: I was putting on chapstick and this member saw me and he gave me a wierd look. He thought it was lipstick. I tried to explain what chapstick was but he had no idea what it was.... So I think he just thinks I am wierd. 5: Pan de Pascua is in season. Fruit bread. It is wierdly good. I never liked it in america and none of the gringos like it here but I find it yummy. I had the best cake this week with actually good...

Gonna switch up my format: Funny: 1. I had a goal to not eat bread one day..... I had 4. It is impossible because they offer it and you cannot refuse it. 2. We had a pull up contest this week. I only had to get to 6 to win.... LOL. (I won don't worry) 3. Thursday was quite possibly the WORST DAY EVER. SO. I come into my room an animal had somehow gotten into our house and pooped all over my room and PEED on my suit. It still smells. Then I was teaching a lesson and set my backpack on the ground in a puddle of cat pee for over an hour. THEN there was a baptism for the hermanas in our branch and I was cleaning the font and I dropped my agenda in the font and ruined everything from the last 5 weeks. It was a funny day.   4. Went on a hike today with a family in our ward and they were telling us how intense it was. IT TOOK 3 HOURS when it should have taken like 30 minutes. So easy but wow they are not climbers here.   Cool: 1. Hitchhiked for the first t...
