Always Wear Flip-Flops In the Shower!!

i got a new companion! Elder Hazaña! from Argentina! North.  I'm so stoked you have no idea! Argentinos are so fun and happy all the time! This kid is like my best friend and its only been 5 days.  He inspired me to get up a half an hour earlier to work out! sweeet.

Elder Julca was really sad when he left. He stayed such a short time. I have half a year in this area! It's crazy, I know everyone!  We actually found a house for 2 other missionaries and we moved um in and everything so now we have 4 missionaries in estero viejo! The whole ward got all excited!  Ha! we had a really short time to find them a place.  I think they're doing good there.  One of the new Elders said his comp told him to always wear flip-flops in the shower and he didn't listen to him and now he's totally got athlete's foot! I still have the same flip-flops that I bought at Shopko casi dos años atrás, and they still work good.  

So we had a huge reunion in Viña before we got our new companions and then the president told us a story and it was the first time where I've seen this huge lider get emotional.  It impacted me so hard that when i got home I just sat and thought about it and i started thinking about the things that i could change to just be the best missionary. The spirit always leaves me with the feeling that i never wanna do a bad thing in my life (not that I'm doing bad things but se entiende)

  

So Elder Julca said "bye" to the families in our ward! I love them! I sent Jason the picture:)

So Hermano Egaña's son gets married this week! the 7th! sweeet! I'm going! 

It's my Dad's birthday that week! HAPPy Birthday Papá!! haha!!

I miss you alllll!

Crazy fire, new comp and a baptism‏:

February 25, 2013

So my area caught on fire this week and me and my companion ran almost to the heart of it to help (and take pictures).. it was pretty dang crazy!  We were in a storm of ash and smoke and this lady came up and asked us if we could pray for her, so we prayed with her right outside! I had my tie covering my mouth so I could breathe.

  

So I get to divide my area with the bishop so that 2 more missionaries can come in! I already know the elders that are coming! haha!  So I'm going to Viña del Mar to go pick up my new companion! Elder Julca se va! He`s leaving... he stayed a really short tiempo.

So we have a baptism this weeek! we're so excited! She`s pure power!! She came to church and she said the prayer in the first class! It's legit!! So I'm doing good, I squish about 3 huge spiders every night (they come out in the night) So since I'm staying in this same pension, I think I'm going to paint it white. 

 

So one day we set out in the morning to get 21 addresses from people. So we talked to people all day! and at the very end of the day we got it! We at least talked to 100 people in the street, that gives ya an idea!

Well I miss all of you and just know I'm doing good.  Know that if you want me to write to you, you will need to send me your address! yipiee!
