¡Bienvenidos a PUCÓN!

Transfers. 
The best and the worst, cierto?
I was hard to leave San Pablo because miracles were literally started to pour from heaven in that little town. Hermana S is like the Super-missionary. She taught me SO much. Our time was too short together. But our time together will continue to teach and influence me for the rest of my mission. To all you missionaries or future missionaries: don´t waste a single second. The mission is so worth it to give it your all. And that's when the miracles happen.
Oh I wanted to tell ya'll, my last day in San Pablo we stopped by to say bye to a less active we've been teaching. M E. She was baptized 2 years ago and is a single mom, working to support her kids and her mom. We challenged her to pray and talk to her boss about having sundays off so she could go to church. As we said bye she told us she quit her job. That she knew it was what the Lord wanted her to do and she didnt know what she would do but that the Lord would bless her for being obedient. She is such a amazing person. She's inspired me to trust the Lord in all I do and be perfectly obedient.
PUCÓN: It is incredibly beautiful here! Super touristy. We're like right up against the Volcano Villarrica. At night you can see the lava glowing at the top (pray it doesn't explode..eek). My companion is Hermana A. She's from Equador and this is her last transfer in the mission. She's little and sassy and knows a lot about the scriptures. She was baptized when she was 14 and her parents aren´t members. I admire her so much for her courage and trust in the Lord.
We're teaching a few families that are really great! All of them are practically members. They read, they pray, they come to church (sometimes) and they've been investigating for a long time. 
One could is Y and D. They have three kids. They want to be baptized but dont what to get married. 
Another is M. She also wants to be baptized but her husband doesn't want to get married.
JUST GET MARRIED GUYS.
I'm still getting to know everyone but I love it here. It's also a branch, reallly small. The church is a little white house. Awww. But the church bought land to build a church, we just need to rise in church assistance before they start building. I'm ready to work.
I LOVE MY MISSION.
I LOVE YOU ALL TOO.

MOM HERE...What a GREAT surprise!!! I got this text from another missionary mom...
"I am here in Pucon Chile picking up my son Elder B from his mission and met the sister missionaries on the street today. Thought you might enjoy a photo of your daughter. She was delightful!" 
AHHHHHH! She know what a mama needs!!!
