Seguir Adelante!

¿que pasa?


everytime i email i think my brain turns off cause suddenly i can never what happened that week! I wish i could just show you all everything, let you borrow my eyes for a second and get a glimpse at Chile

This week we had a goal as a district to get the members more involved in the work and show our trust in them to be missionaries too. One day we went to an appointment with our investigators, C and G, with a really sweet Hermana in the ward. We were excited to watch "the restoration" with them and have this member share her testimony. Unfortunately our investigators aren't ready to accept our message yet... They believe in the Bible and the Bible only. It's hard to see people reject a book from God full of truth that simple shows His love for us. But after we said "esta bien, seguimos adelante! (ok, go ahead!) We'll find contact someone that will accept this message". 

So we began the next day knocking doors, looking for new investigators. But the only two people who would listen were one man (still recovering from his new years party i think) and a priest, who persisted to tell us we didn't know anything about the bible or Jesus Christ. Rough day. But the next day we set out with our hopes still high. We taught a lady the plan of salvacion that has been inactive for YEARS, and she thought we were crazy when we said we are literal spirit children of God and who lived with Him before this earth.

It's tough to go day in and day out with people telling you that you're wrong. But it makes it easier when I think of my Savior, who was rejected everyday, yet no one would call Him a failure. If I do my part with all of my heart and a smile the Lord is pleased. I know I'm making the difference the Lord has asked me to make. 

We really can make such a difference in the lives around us, whether we recognize it or not. We just have to seguir adelante! (go ahead)


Love you all! 
thanks for your prays! 
and read the Book of Mormon!
