Well hello there World, here we are another week and another email from you favorite sister missionary named Hermana Randall :)
Well
many things happened this week for sure. Our P-Day went well and Tuesday
as well. WE had 7 baptismal interviews this week, and a definite baptism
next Saturday! We are so excited to see the progress that Vallenar is making right now.
We
also had our last Leaders Conference before I go home.... I thought
that there was going to be one more before I left... But no.... So in
the middle of the meeting I had to stand up and give my last testimony
in front of all of the leaders in the mission..... What a surprising time
to rip out my heart and show it to everyone. sigh.
But
it was a really good conference! As a mission we received a congratulations from the general authorities because we as a mission
baptized 118 converts in October! The mission is so happy and as a
result there are more and more people that are being able to partake of
the various blessings that God has prepared for the faithful and
obedient. :) It really is the time to be here in Chile Antofagasta!
The
meeting was in Antofagasta so I had to travel the 10 hours in bus, back
to where I just was the week before, and then take the bus back....
Ugh. It was very hectic. Wednesday
we received a call from the office saying that the new elder that is in
the office and in charge of buying all of the tickets, didn't buy tickets
for us.... So we suddenly had to find a member who could drive us 2
hours to Copiapò so that we could take a different bus from there to
Antofagasta..... So we had to leave at 6 in the afternoon, drive
awkwardly to Copiapò, which we arrived at about 8:15, then wait until the bus left at 10:40PM.
Then we tried to sleep but we got to Antofagasta early... Like 5 in the
morning early. So we had to sit and wait in the bus terminal until the assistants woke up and came to get us. They took us sisters to the apartment of the Cerro Moreno sisters! My old apartment! And then I
was able to see a member of the ward who I love a ton. And then the
conference all day. We left at 6:00 or so from the office. The bus left at 8:00, and we arrived back in Vallenar at 6:00AM Friday morning. It was a busy week.
But a super great week! 4 investigators in the chapel Sunday,
and the spirit in all directions. I love the mission. I don't even want
to think about going. But I'm
glad that I am here in Vallenar! We have
another busy hectic week planned, but we are going to conquer it!
I
love you all, thank you for all of your unconditional support. I hate
to say it, but love it at the same time, but I will see you all soon!
LES AMO!
