really excited for general conference

Hey family sounds like you are all doing well. That makes me really happy. This week has been a good one for me. We are working hard and trying to help all the people that we are teaching to progress. Yesterday we had the baptizm of kevin and it went well. He is so awesome and so funny. He is going to be a awesome member in the church. He grandpa came to baptize him and it all went well. It was crazy just like it always is. Satan always tried to ruin the baptizms and the spirit but like always everything turned out well. 

So we are teaching this lady named maria suzanna. I think i have already told you guys about her. She is so prepared. She stopped smoking, drinking alcohol and tea and coffee and is really excited for her baptism. She has a baptismal date for the 11th of october so be praying for her. This is the time when satan tries to attack the people so that they dont take this very important step in their lives. But it doesnt matter cause God is so much more powerful than him. 

Also thanx to a game that we have as a zone, some other missionaries contacted this sweet couple and they happened to live in our sector. So we went to visit them and they are awesome. We have taught them like 3 times and they are golden. On the 3rd visit they said they want to be married in our church and asked us what they had to do to be baptized... haha it was such a miracle. Tonight we are going to have a family home evening (Noche de Hogar) with this sweet fam in our sector. The only problem is that the dad works in a mall on Sundays so it will be hard for him to atend. But pray for a miracle. We are looking for a different job that he can have so he can go to church on Sundays. 

I am really excited for general conference. On the mission i have come to really apriciate the conference. It is so awesome, before the mission i just thought it was long and boring but here i have realized how powerful it really is. They are servents of the Lord and talk with Him. They know what He wants us to know and if we want to be happy we have to listen to their words. And not only the Sunday morning session but all of them. They are all so awesome and if we dont listen to all of them we are going to miss lots of important things that we need. So make sure to watch all of them and go into the conference with a question or something that you want to know, or need to feel. You will get exactly what you need. 

Haha ya i loved how all of you wrote me and told me not to be trunky. Haha, dont worry i am fine, i am still working as hard as i can. I love the mission even though a lot of times it is very hard. It is so awesome and for these last 3 months i will continue to work with all my heart. I love you all tons and hope you have a awesome week. Keep on praying for me and for my investigators. 

Love

gave away olivia's book of mormon in english

Hey family hows it goin. Man i was pretty sad to hear that byu won but its all good, the world will go on. It sounds like everything at home is going well. Here all is good. Sorry this letter wont be too long it was a very long week. I dont think i have walked so much in all my mission. It was the week of the 18th which here is like the 4th of july and so everyone in all of chile was drunk. So it was really really hard to get into houses. But its all good. 

I found out that my son, elder maldonado is training a new missionary already. I was so happy, that means that i now have a grandson haha. Oh ya, remember that book of mormon in english that you guys sent me from olivia. Well we gave it away to this guy who wants to learn more about the church and wants to practice his english. He is awesome and ill let ya know what happens. Besides that we had 4 people in the church this week and 3 people with baptizmal dates. We should be seeing some baptisms very soon. Well that is pretty much all that happened this week. I hope you all have a awesome week. 

Love ya

i dont have much time on internet

Hey family how is everything goin? Everything here is amazing. We have had another awesome week and i am loving life. We found this awesome lady who is named maria suzanna. She is so excited and has excepted everything that we have taught her. She wants to get baptized so bad so she will be baptized in 3 weeks. We are excited for her. Also kevin was sick all this week so he will be baptized next week. He is doing well and is excited but will have to wait. Dago, the kid that me and elder williams found got baptized on Saturday, he is so awesome. He already wants to come out to visit people with us. He is sharing with his family and his friends and just has a strong testimony. Angelo was not able to have his baptizmal interview this past Sunday so he will be interviewed and baptized up in antofagasta which is in the top area of chile. It was really sad to see him go but its all good. It doesnt matter where he gets baptized just that he does. 

Ya sorry this isnt going to be very long cause this has been a crazy week and i dont have much time on internet sorry. We are doing well here, me and my comp. We are working hard and seeing tons of miracles. We found this young couple who are so so nice and they have a little baby boy. They had already gone to church a couple time and want to come back and get to know it better. They also are not married but they want to be, they are just trying to find what church they want to be married in... Sweet, the only problem is that the husband works almost every Sunday so we are going to see what we can do. Ya well i am glad byu keeps on winning and hopefully they will destroy florida st. Next week. I love you all tons. Have a great week.

We didn't have any rocks thrown at us

Hey family how is life goin? Here in chile life is awesome as always. I had a really good week. I feel like now at the end of my mission i really know how to work hard and eficiently and me and my comp we are taking out the trash here. We have found a lot of people who are progressing and who are just awesome. I wish i would have known how to work like this at the beginning of my mission but its all good, we all have to learn little by little. 

But ya this week was a lot more not crazy haha. We didnt have any rocks thrown at us so that was good. On the bad news side, this week is the 11th of sept. If you guys remember what happened last year, everyone is chile goes crazy and starts throwing stuff and shooting and burning things. So the 11th we go inside at like 4 in the afternoon and chill out. So that is going to be fun haha. Dont worry we will be fine. I figued out that our sector is one the the richest sectors in all our mission. Last year was a lot more crazy, we lived in one of the most getto sectors in the mission. So i will let you guys know what happens next week. 

So today kevin and angelo are going to have their bapt interviews. We got bad news this past week. Angelo told us that he is going to move to the north for a couple months. So we are going to see if he is ready to be baptized right now or if he is going to wait another week and get baptized in the north. I was kinda sad when i found that out but it doesnt matter where he gets baptized, the important thing is that he gets baptized. But we will see what happens today in his interview. He is so awesome and so prepared. I love the mission.

Also just to let you guys know, dago, the kid that me and elder williams found, passed his baptizmal interview yesterday and he is going to be baptized this week as well. 

Ok so you guys dont understand how happy i was when i heard that BYU won. That totally made my day. I knew they would and i hope that they dont do what they did last year. Do really good then end up the season by sucking haha. No i think they will do well this year and i am really sad i wont be able to see the season but i know that i am suppost to be here in chile and i wouldnt give it up for anything. And there are more important things in life than BYU football, not very many but there are a couple haha. 

Love you all tons. Keep on working and doing your thing. Have a awesome week and pray for angelo. Thanx for always writting me and supporting me. I love getting the pics of you guys. Dont worry im not too trunky haha i only get trunky on pdays. Ill keep working till the end. 

Love ya
