¡Hola familia!
I am sorry to hear some of you are not feeling well and in tiptop shape kind of sounds like me. I have been sick for the past week with a nasty cough that I cannot get rid of. I am doing my best to keep up the vitamin C in my body and eating a lot of fruit and it seems to be helping. Glad to hear the campout was a success and the boys loved it but sad that none of the boys from the Geneva ward showed up. Who are the boys now in Varsity anyways?? I have no Idea who is there anymore ha-ha.
I loved the conference with President Lovell I learned so much in other ways on how to invite people better to church and the large reason on why we go to church and show that to people and then they will have a better understanding on why and then they’ll want to go to church in the end. President showed a clip of a district in San Diego and their difficulties but it was in English so I translated for my companion. I translated pretty well I think because my companion understood everything I said so my Spanish is getting better. I am really excited for this weekend for Conference!! I feel like its Christmas, I just learn so much from Conference now for personal revelation and to know what the lord wants for me to learn and then something that could help my investigators in this moment because we have found many this past week. Now the goal is to just have them progressing and going to church and with faith and obedience we can do it all. The weather here is still pretty cold not way way warm but this past week has been warm and I hope to have a really warm week this coming week. I also cut my own hair with a clipper a missionary has here in Puerto Montt and it is really short now. I haven’t had it this short in a very long time since the beginning of my mission there in Valdivia if you remember how short it was its about that right now and everyone at church says I look like a marine and I did a good job so yeah sweet. I guess I will be cutting my own hair when I can ha-ha. But thanks for the number dad for my ATM I am going to try.
I was reading today in the Bible in 1 Samuel 3 The story of the prophet Samuel and that the lord comes to him 3 times before he knows it is the voice of the lord. I learned that sometimes Samuel is us and we sometimes do not listen to the prompting of the Lord OR the Holy Ghost trying to guide us and help us down the right path. Sometimes we need to listen really hard and always be doing what is right in the eyes of God. If we do this we can say "Habla, que tu siervo escucha" I love the scriptures and the great blessings we receive from them and how we can apply them so much in our lives. We just have to read. Thank you dad for all of your support in me and all the family. I love you and miss ya tons!
Love, Elder Blotter
