Glad Tidings of Great Joy

So last week Mirta was baptized and confirmed! With the water problems in Osorno, we had to go to San Pablo. (Baptism requires a lot of water). The branch there helped us a lot in getting everything ready. It was so great to see all of them and feel there love and support. Scarlett was there too! She is still participating regularly and waiting for the permission to be able to get baptized, in December is most likely. This week I did a few intercambios and discovered how cool the Gospel Library App is. We were doing a contact and I downloaded the app on someones phone and showed them a video from it. They all stopped (the 5 kids) and watched it and listened to us bear testimony of Jesus Christ and the power to change and overcome. When we left, they were all super calm and it was so awesome to see the Spirit we invited into their home and how calm they were. The Elders from that sector told me they went back for the lesson we set for later and that it went really well! The family

No letter this week but here are some pictures Elder Brighton sent:

About 3 months ago we were approached by a man named Y in the street. At the time, he was very drunk but said that he loved "los mormones" and told us how much they had helped him and that it was the only church for him. We talked to him for a bit and that was that. We probably invited him to church on Sundays. During the next few days, we continued to run into him practically everyday (he was always drunk). At the end of the week, we were knocking doors, and waddaya know, Y opened up one of the doors. He let us inside and we talked a little, but it wasn´t a very spiritual environment. From there, we saw him every now and then but never tried going back. Two or three weeks ago we were going by and he stopped us and said he wanted to go to church tomorrow and told us to pass by and pick him up. So, Sunday morning we went to his house to pick him up. He was there, calmly eating breakfast and we walked to church together. We got to church and sat down and the meeting started

It has been a pretty crazy couple of weeks for us. I can´t possibly include everything we did but I´ll share our schedule of this past week. Friday- We met President Meek and ate breakfast with him in his home and then drove the Isoms to the airport. That was sad. I think it was Friday that that happened. It was a long time ago. Saturday- The first meeting with the missionaries and President Meek! We had it here in the mission home with the missionaries of Osorno and Rahue. Monday- We got up early and headed north to Valdivia (about an hour and a half of driving) for the second zone conference with the missionaries from Valdivia, Calle Calle, and Villarrica. President Meek had to make a few phone calls before the conference, and we also met with some of the Zone Leaders to talk about their zone. We had a zone conference and it was great. Every conference was great and special. He talked about something a little different in each zone according to what the Spirit guided him
