Hey Dad! Juan has a Baptismal Date!!!!!! On
October 25, 2014 by the authority of the Holy Melchizedek Priesthood I will
baptize Juan Aguirre! He believes it all and wants to live forever with his
family! We are working on setting a date for the wedding this week and hoping
that this weekend we will be attending our first Chilean wedding or at
least next Monday. I will be sending you a picture of a marriage
license! The problem right now is the less active girlfriend. which to me is so
strange because all the other members who we teach who aren’t married just want
to sprint to court to make their marriage official and baptize their spouse!
But she is really young. She is
the same age as Jessica and is a little scared but we are praying she will be
able to overcome this fear. Juan
even fasted yesterday for it!!! It was awesome! This gospel really will change
the lives of people who choose to follow it, because when we sacrifice for
Heavenly Father he opens up the windows of heaven and makes it rain blessings!
I am really glad to hear that you’re having missionary experiences yourself! I
know it is hard to have hope for some of the people you teach because I feel
the same way some of the time but we don’t know all that is really going on in
their lives. We just need to have faith, we invite them to make promises with
the Lord through the power of the spirit and then pray that they will keep
their promises. The Lord will bless us with what we want, not always
immediately or in the way we think but He will.
I love you Dad!!

little slow and we didn’t teach a whole lot of lessons but we did manage to set
a baptismal date for Juan so thank you for your Prayers! He has to get married
first but I hope this week I will be attending my first Chilean wedding!

That
so exciting to hear about Juan! We will continue to pray that all goes well for
him and his girlfriend. Make sure you take pics at the wedding. I was
able to see pics from your zone conference and you look so handsome! I do have
to say that you are the best looking missionary in your zone! But I’m also
biased. I've been wondering if you are able to go running for your exercise.
Also how is a normal day for you go?

zone! I run every morning for like 15 minutes and then do some easy things on
those outside gyms that are in the parks, pushups, squats and then I curl plastic
bags filled with Book of Mormons.

That's awesome that you curl BOM!! Can your comp keep up with you? I’m so happy that you love your zone. We can tell in your pics that you are happy and full of the spirit and that makes dad and I so happy for you! Tell me about your days and your routine. Have you been able to keep the weight off with all the bread your probably eating?

Chris:
We have bread like 4 times a day but I
only eat a little bit so I am not to worried and everyone says I will get even
skinnier when I get transferred to Viña or Valpo because it is just hills and
heat so I am pumped for that! The weather her is really weird and the temp will
change like 3 times during the day! I usually run a little bit ahead of my
companion but I can tell he didn´t really workout a whole lot before now so he
is starting to lose a lot of weight as well ha
