So
for the 4th of July we made hot dogs the american way (not chilean
completos with avocado and tomato on top) and we made home made
Icecream. It was freeeeeezing cold because we had to shake the bag of
ice around like crazy and it was night time and super cold but hey
traditions and traditions and they{ve gotta be kept.
Agh jealousy. I wanna go on trek toooooo!!!!! Mom
Its interesting out here how I{m really starting to pick up on many of
Satans tactics and man flojera (laziness) is THE NUMBER ONE problem. Its
really a bummer because when we invite people to do things and they
tell us they don{t have "ganas" or that "no me nace" (which is the
number one excuse we get) its like.... shoot. What do you do? Satan
gets people soooooooo comfortable and lazy that getting them to do
anything thats out of their comfort zone is nearly impossible. I was
reading about that in the scriptures the other day and Idk if I already
shared this scripture with you guys but if I already did, read it again
because it rocks. In 2 nephi 28 verses 21 and 24. I really like the
spanish translation of verse 24 it says "Por tanto ¡Ay del reposado en
Sion!" I think in english it says wo to the at ease in zion or
something, and in spanish reposado means basically resting. I think that
is so true we cant be sitting around at ease in our comfort zones and
we cant be resting in zion. There is always more to do, always more
people to serve, and always more to be. So have fun on trek mom, and
just be glad that you are making the choice not to be resting at ease in
Zion. Its soooo important to keep trying to do better and be better
because if not we too will be in that category of those at ease and
resting in zion.
Well. Lets see.... what happened this week. We are
working with an investigator named Belen. She is 15 years old and we are
teaching her whole family but so far she is the one that is
participating the most. Her dad has been having a really hard time
because his brother is dying in the hospital so if you could all pray
for the family Pinchetti: Mauricio (the dad), Andrea (the mom), Belen,
and Christian (the brother of mauricio) because they need lots of
prayers!! Also if you could pray for Isidora Navia I would greatly
appreciate it.
Well. I have to go... wow the time flew by today, but I will talk to you all next week!!!
