Hola!!!! From chile!!!!!

Pues estoy en Chile.

1. I have a placa!!!!! I´m a missionary.
2. It´s summer
3. It´s gorgeous like Santa Barbara gorgeous
4. The Gospel of Christ is true.
5. Drivers in Chile are crazy!!! The ride from the airport was.... wow!

The CCM here is great. It's warm outside, but too cold inside with the Air Conditioning. Oh this week was great!!! and bad... let´s just say lots of tears have been shed between me and Hermana Hurtado. We miss our families. And for me spanish is still hard. But it´s getting better. I can´t write and listen at the same time.

Yesterday my district saw me at a very crazy and high energy. So me! Pretty much. My district helps me understand spanish. It´s great! They slow down for me and repeat 2-7 times and change words, but it´s coming. 

Learning the Gospel in spanish is the hardest part. I have EVERTHING in english and spanish. Today I need to go buy scriptures in spanish. 

Oh I´m so excited to write today!!!! You can hear everyone typing away to try and type to everyone as fast as possible.

My compaƱera es Hna. Hurtado. Ella es de Chile. And I don´t have any pictures because I forgot to bring my camera to the computer lab. I am in an AMAZING district. District 1. And it´s a Latino district. Yup that´s right. I´m Latina.... HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!! I´m the furthest thing from white as possible. They all speak SUPER slow for me. Closer to about 80 beats per minute for you music people. It´s awesome. Son de Las Vegas, Colombia, Chile, y Mexico.

Even though things are hard, I can fee the Spirit every day. There are times that it´s harder because of what´s going on around me but I can feel the spirit. I love you all. I love this Gospel. And I´m excited to learn the Gospel better each day. And I have a year and a half to do that. I´m going to make a TON of mistakes, but I will know my Saviour. My 1st favorite scripture is John 16:33 and my 2nd favorite which is now my theme is Proverbs 3:5 "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not unto thine own understandings." It´s true. Do it.
