Hey momma how are you doing this fine Monday afternoon??:) This
last week was so amazing!!:) I honestly can’t remember a whole lot that
happened because it’s all just one fast blur; but let’s start with the
Christofferson Conference!!:) Oh man it was soooooo good. I loved it. He didn’t
really talk about any super deep doctrine but just reaffirmed a lot of doctrine
and taught more about it!!:) It was really amazing and cool because he talked
about a few things that I never really thought about. In one part he was saying
that our mission as missionaries is to find and help people get to the
celestial kingdom – because if we want any of the other 2 kingdoms, we don’t
need the gospel. We just need to be good people and do our best.... so it’s
about going above and beyond and trying to become really like our Father in Heaven
– nothing less.:)
I’ll share more about that next week but that’s one part I thought
was really cool. Oh hahaha and he said "Aun hasta lo mas tonto puede
llegar a la reino telestial." haha!!!😂
(Translated it means: Even the
most foolish can reach the telestial kingdom.) It was pretty funny
that part. Also we had an FHE with the Family Alverado and a family of investigators
of the other Elders in Alerce!:) It went really well, we talked about the Sabbath
day. Then we also helped a family move out of their house this week, they went
up north close to Concepción!:)
Oh and as for cambios.....well I will be leaving this graceful and beautiful land of
Alerce....:/ but I got my wish... haha I am going to Puerto Natales, in Punta
Arenas! So that will be really interesting to see how that goes!! I’m sad and
excited! I kind of wanted to stay and finish here but it’s about what the Lord
needs right?:) So I’m super excited and ready to do some work there!!💪
Woah that sounds like you guys had a really great week until
you got to the news, but I’m not too worried. I trust in our Heavenly Father. He
knows what’s best for every one of His children, but I hope that all results
well!!:) That is true that prayer is one of the most powerful tools that we
have!!! Thank you for sharing that quote and your thought momma! It’s so true!
I hope you have an amazing week. Let me know how all is
going and if I can do anything else to help!!;) Love you to infinity and beyond!!:)
Have a great week!!:)
Love,
Elder Shawners
