Sorry it was ferrial here yesterday so everything was
closed..:/ but it's ok because I can write today! Well I’m glad that you liked
the pictures!!:) This last week was really good. We had cambios (transfers); and as I think you have
heard, I’m going to be staying here in Villarrica for another cambio!!:) Also I
am going be with Elder Medina for his last cambio before he goes home. So
this is going to be a great cambio I believe!!:) As for Isaias we didn’t get a
chance to teach him this last week ‘cause he was with family in Valdivia. But
we taught Benjamin, who is a 12-year-old of a really cool part-member family we
have here in Villarrica. We hope to get him to church this week. Also this last
week we went to Lider (Walmart of Chile) and bought milk and cereal, and I left
my Agenda (aka planner) (with 40 mil
inside) on the counter at Lider. I realized this at the house.... and so we
hurried and took a bus back down to Lider. Just then Pato called us and said Lider
called and reported they found my agenda with all the money.... So I had the Lord
on my side that day!!! Also it was funny they called Pato because I have his
number written in the front of my agenda as "Santo Papito" which in
Spanish is Holy Father!!! Haha. So that was something scary but funny from this
week.:)
I’m happy to be staying here because I love the people here and
the sector is huge so we have a lot of work to do.:) Plus it is very beautiful
here especially in Villarrica and Pucón. We had interviews with Pres. Isom like
2 weeks ago and he seems really cool and I look forward to talking and getting
to know him better.:) We have been working with Carlos a lot after his baptism. He
is still doing really good even though things aren’t going the best for him
right now. But he is still happy and having a good attitude. It’s is so true
the devil will always try to drag us or our new members down so that is why we
are here.:)
Tell Doug thank you and God bless as well.:) When did you
talk with him? Wow that is sweet about Jake Oldroyd and Madi!! It will be sweet
to have them here!!:) (Jake is BYUs
kicker and Madi is the sister of one of Chad’s friends. Both were called to the
Chile Osorno mission recently). Umm the only advice I have is bring good
waterproof clothes, shoes and backpack. That’s all for now.. haha:)
That is sweet about your new calling. I know that you will
do great and I hope that you love it!!:) That is so awesome about your thought
and Christ.:) He suffered for each and every one of us individually, so that is
so cool that he would take the time to go to each and every one of his
children.:) I love that thought, thank you mama.
Thank you mama for the email! Also no package yet but we are
doing divisions tomorrow with the Zone leaders so I think I’ll get my package
then!!:) But thank you so much for everything. Have a great week and do
work!!:) And oh my quote for this week is "We are all the architects of
our own happiness." Love you and have a great week.:)
Love,
Elder Shawners
