Awsome Week and Christmas Package



I received your packages!!!!! I found the granola and have already begun eating it (I just finished with the old, so it came just in time) it is so so so fresh:) I hope Josh´s aunt comes to Chile every month and delivers a package! haha.
But thank you so very very very much!! You are the best!!!!!! I got josh´s package as well with delicious no bake cookies and other chocolates, it was very nice of him. 

This week was awesome! 

One of our investigator families passed their baptismal interviews, so they will be baptized next Saturday, they are very excited. The found that in the church the world is her friend. The church is incredible that way, one big happy family. It was her birthday yesterday and she didn´t tell us...So we quickly organized with a family a big huge lunch in the church with her, it worked out well cause she had her baptismal interview right before. And then we ran home and made brownie batter and brought some birthday things that my parents sent me:) and we ran to her house, cooked the brownies and cleaned her whole house and decorated it. A member family came over and we had a little celebration, she was happy. 

Another family are the perfect investigators. They read, all of them, they all came to church. They accepted baptismal dates for January 25 as a family. That would be amazing. When we are with them they look up words, they ask awesome questions, they are genuinely interested. They loved church and want to keep coming. When we teach them they always make something for us. Yesterday was pizza and cake with ecco cacao. We should be back in the apt at 9:30, but we really have until 10, which is the max time we have to be back in the apt. They know the 10 rule. So it was 9:15 when we finished the lesson, and they looked at the time and said. O good we still have 45 minutes with the missionaries. Hna Stewart and I just looked at each other and laughed a hearty laugh. They are really good friends with a lot of members, so we already got an in, and a member comes with us to every lesson. God has really done everything and we are just there as instruments, its pretty sweet. 


Another investigator came to church and loved it again!! She has a baptismal date on January 5. She decided to leave us and so stopped reading the Book of Mormon for a few days, and then she got curious and felt like she should start reading it again. She began to read again and felt so peaceful and happy she hasn't stopped reading since and is even more receptive. She (completely on her own) has tried to not drink coffee and tea. atta girl!! People have to ACT if they want to receive an answer.
