Family!! How are you guys? I am so happy! An investigator that
Hermana Rivera and I taught in La Reina got baptized one month ago! She sent
some pictures...what a miracle!! I am so happy she was able to make this
covenant with Heavenly Father. Baptism changes lives! She was so ready to be
baptized! She was ready to take that step and follow Jesus Christ. She is soooo
great! So happy!!!
Today was amazing because we had a zone activity!!! We went to one
of the churches in our stake and played basketball, frisbee, and we ate...and
the best part is that an hermano from the stake came and taught us how to dance
la cueca!!!!! It was sooooo amazing. Sooo much fun! We received special
permission from President Morgan. We had a potluck too! I made cinnamon rolls.
People took rice, lomos salados, completos, quesadillas, arepas...it was
awesome! I love our zone!
Sunday was the primary program in our ward!! It was soooo cute! None
of our investigators came..... but we felt the Spirit very strong! The kids
were so cute as they sung and gave their talks. That is something I miss from
Las Flores jajaja....
Yesterday we had an amazing lesson with our investigator, Patricia.
When we entered and sat down she told us she was very sad and discouraged. Her
husband had previously left her and her children to live with a colleague from
his work. Then, after almost two years he was kicked out and asked Patricia if
he could stay with her. She let him, but now after one month he is leaving
again to be with the same woman. Patricia does not care, but she is sad because
one of her sons is suffering for what his father is doing. Her son is special,
and does not understand the situation very well. Patricia started to cry, and
it was hard to see her so sad. We shared a scripture with her: Juan 16:33: Jesus
Christ tells us not to be afraid because He has already overcome the world.
Hermana Vega started to share her testimony, and we felt the Spirit very
strong. Hermana Vega has passed through a similar situation in her life. I
shared my testimony too, and we felt the Spirit SO strong! It was so crazy!
Then out of nowhere, Patricia asks us when her baptism will be. Hermana Vega
and I were like..what??!!!!! We were so surprised and excited! It was a
miracle. We are going to invite her to be baptized the 20th of December. She
told us she wants to be baptized! It was an experience that truly testifies of
the power of the Holy Ghost! So amazing!!
It is getting reallllyyy hot here in Chile! The summer is arriving!
We put on lots of sunscreen every day jajaja! Good times!
This week was challenging because we did not see a lot of people.
Overall, it was hard to find our investigators and less actives. That is
challenging. However, we are determined! This is the last week of the transfer,
so we are working very hard!!!
Being a missionary is the best! I would not trade this experience
for anything in the world! It is amazing!! Christ lives, and it is up to us,
his disciples, to spread the good news to all the world! What a wonderful
calling we have. Share the love!!!
Life is good! I am happy! I have problems and weaknesses, but I have
Christ! He is the light of my life. May God bless you all this week! Love
you!!!
Love, Hermana Mittleman
