Hola todos!
Sounds
like you have a fun spring break trip planned! I was about to say that Provo in the Fall is
beautiful, but I guess its not the fall over there is it? Provo ’s
spring are a little wet and mucky, and that’s probably why you have to go to Zions National
Park to get your scenery in. The chill of fall is
definitely in the air here, but it’s still hot--only with a chilly breeze. On
Friday I was able to make some hot cocoa because it was raining, so there are a
few chilly days, but I’ve comfortably worn short sleeves everyday.
It’s been
a difficult but rewarding week in San Fransisco. Pablo again left for a
different province to work so we were unable to get him baptized this week, and
Elder Cobb had a really bad cold that slowed us down a bit. We spent a lot of
time trying to plan an activity for Friday, but on the day there was a giant
rain storm and all of the buses in the Province of Buenos Aires
shut down. We had to postpone the activity a week. That being said, we also had
a lot of success.
We were
finally able to talk with Ramona again. We talked with her and learned that she
is addicted to cigarettes. We then gave a powerful lesson on why the Lord asks
us not to smoke, and the blessings that come from it. The spirit was strong as
we testified of his love for her and that he would help her.
We also
had a great lesson with a new investigator that we found last week. We shared
the Restoration with her, and then asked her to pray about it to know if it was
true. To our surprise she started to pray in that very moment. At first it was
a little awkward because we didn´t know what to do, but we waited in silence
for a few minutes, and when she raised her head again, we knew that she
received her answer. She prayed and said that she felt Bien, Rey Bien. We plan
on visiting her again this week.
Funny
story of the week. My companion and I bought 50 facturas for the activity this Friday.
Facturas are like donuts. The problem is that we bought them the day before,
and when the activity was cancelled, well, let’s just say we ate facturas for
Dinner, Breakfast, lunch, dinner, and another breakfast.
Anyway,
hope yáll having a great life, love you all
Love,
Elder
Chipman
