Happy 26th Anniversary Mom & Dad This past week, we had a lesson with Scarlett. She didnt believe in Jesus Christ the first time we taught her but now it seems like she understands what all he did for us. She really enjoys reading the Book of Mormon and loved Alma 32 with the stuff about the seed. Caterin came to church for the 3rd time and is all but ready to be baptized. she is really looking forward to it. We are planning it for the 5th of September. Yesterday in church, Felipe, who was baptized on August 1, received the Aaronic Priesthood and was ordained to the office of Deacon. Right now we are busy working on finding more people. We need to work a little harder at getting references from the members.
Elder Tensmeyer is doing really good. His spanish is progressing so much! He is starting to understand more of the things that people are asking him. He teaches really well and is going to be a really good missionary. He already is. We are getting along really well. This past thursday, we had a mission conference in Villa Alemana. I got to see Elder Tondevold. He finishes at the end of next change! I gave him some Taco Bell hot sauce. He about flipped when he saw them. It was good to see a lot of the missionaries that i came in with. Elder Owen was excited to hear that I might be moving to Sandy in the future. I was also able to see Elder Davila. He is doing good up in Cabildo with Elder Daniels. He was excited to hear how things were going in his old sector.

Today on our P-day we are going shopping....then we are going to play soccer as a zone at 4. tomorrow we are having a big soccer activity in the church with a bunch of non members that we have invited. we´ll see how things go. well that is all that is really going on with me. I love serving the Lord down here in Chile and I know that the Gospel is true. It is easy to see that as you share it and watch the people change and receive the blessings that are promised for us. Take care. Chao Elder Nelson
