Goodbye President & Sister WilhelmPresidente, muchas gracias por todo. Palabras no pueden expresar mi gratitud para usted y su esposa y las cosas que han hecho para mí personalmente. Yo nunca los voy a olvidar. Gracias por su consejo y enseñanzas.
We had a mission conference on Friday in Villa Alemana. It was a mission conference for the interior. There, we met our new mission president and his wife. They are from Vancouver, Washington. His profession is a dentist. They are really cool. They are really different than Pres and Sis Wilhelm. First of all, it has been about 40 years since Pres. Gillespie used his spanish and you could tell. He told us that it would take him some time to get used to that. His wife has been learning for about 2 months now and hardly knows anything but she is really nice and is a music freak. so i guess the sunday before leaving for chile, they had a special sacrament meeting in the MTC with the entire first presidency of the church and 11 of the 12 apostles. Crazy! the only one not there was President Packer. How cool would that be! they got to hear each one of their testimonies too...
On saturday night this week we found a really sweet young couple. the husband is evangelical and the wife is catholic but neither are active really...just born into the churches. they have a daughter that is 2. they were both really interested and had a lot of questions. They asked us when we could come back and visit them and answer more of their questions about the Book of Mormon after they were done reading the chapter we left them to read. It was a really sweet lesson. At first we were just going to leave them with the pamphlet and come back another time but they seemed so interested that we just kept teaching. we were really behind in contacts and needed to do more and it was 6:30 at night which was like the best time to do contacts, but this was more important. This weekend we have a baptism for a 9 year old named Mauro. He is a ball of energy. he is cool and really excited for his special day.
oh, hermana cofre says Feliz cumpleaños to dad :)
