Whelp this is it. It was a good New Years and Christmas, we had dinner with a family and then the night of New Years Eve there were some fireworks that they do here in Los Vilos. We woke up the next day to no water haha. It got cut in all of Los Vilos. But it's already back, no worries.

Something that Elder Rasband said "... a mission call form the Lord, my young friends, is the most important work that you can do." I know that there is nothing better that I could have done with the last two years of my life than be here in Chile serving the Lord. I am grateful for the experiences and the people that have shaped me into the person I am now. I'm definitely not the same as I was when I got here. This time has been special because I know that the Savior has given me the chance to really get to know Him. I know that He loves each one of us and that He gives us the chance to return. I know the Gospel is the way to find happiness and peace in this life. I know that the Church of Jesus Christ was restored through Joseph Smith with the proper authority of God. I know that we have men inspired by God today that lead and guide the Church. I know that we can have personal communication with God. I know that Jesus Christ is the Savior of the world, but He knows each one of us personally. 

 

Love you guys a lot! See you in a week!!!
