The One with the Flu Shot 4/12

 APRIL 12TH
Hello everyone!
So this week, the mission had changes! I am still in the same area and the same companion so I am super happy about that! I will be in the same house and the same stake for about 11 months of my mission! HAHAHA!! I am happy about it because I am in the best stake in the mission! 
So this week we had to get the flu shot! I was not happy about that and I was very nervous because they just did it in the church and the missionary nurse gave me mine! I did better than others though, my friend Elder Moura was crying and had to sit down to get the shot... I felt bad when everyone was telling me to stop laughing.. oops! But it was great because we were able to have another Reunion with President. He talked all about Alma 37-41 and the importance of these chapters to learn basic principles of the Gospel! I love most Alma 37:6-7 which tells us that through the little things, we can see big changes.. or something like that.. I dont remember in English. But it is true! Through the little things that we do, we can see the miracles as rewards. I know that reading the scriptures, saying prayers, and going to church seem small, but it is the only way to see the miracles. THey are the most simple and small things, but they are the most important! I have a strong testimony of ht simple things. If you are going through a trial or feeling a little lost, I invite you to look and see how you are doing with your scripture reading, prayers, and church attendance! I promise it will make all the difference! 
I dont have much else to write about the week! I miss you all so much and love you all! 

WORK HARD, PRAY HARDER!!

The One with "Being Where My Feet Are"

FEBRUARY 8, 2017 These are family home evenings with some of my favorite families in our ward and also with a new convert that we have! His name is Christian and he was baptized just a week before I came to the sector! He is a miracle and such a faithful member! He is one of the coolest people I have ever met! HELLO EVERYONE!!!  Okay so this week was a great one! Honestly never really had a bad one because I am just radiating with happiness! Buuuut this week was BAKAN! We did a lot of searching for people but also had some really powerful and uplifting moments with investigadores. We met on lady named Rosa and she was outside her house painting. I told Hermana Knechtel that we should go ask if she needed help. SHe told us no and turned her back to us as if she didn't want to talk. I thought... you are not getting away that easy... I walked around to where I could see her face and introduced myself. I am not sure what changed her mind but she opened right up and st

The One with Being Bold! 11-8-17

NOVEMBER 8, 2017 Hello friends and family how are you all doing this week! I am doing great here in the mission Chile Santiago South This week was a week full of conferences. We had one as the South part of the mission and then we had a huge one as a whole mission and the West mission. It was crazy! While we were there I realized how tiny our mission is and how few of us there really are. The West mission has many many missionaries and we are just so few, but we are the best! The west mission were all serious and our mission was a fun and excited! We are like a big, happy family! We had a special visit from Elder Christensen and his wife from the 70. They gave some powerful and uplifting talks! Something that stood out to me was a quote by Elder Christensen that said BE BOLD! I love this so much! It is soooo important to be bold in all that we do as missionaries! It is vital to share the Gospel and our Testimonies with Boldness! But not just missionaries with nametags all members need

THE ONE WHERE I AM TRAINING!! 3/01

MARCH 1, 2017 Yup, so this week we had changes and I have been called to be a trainer! My daughter (companion but in the mission I am her mom and she is my daughter) is brand new! She has 2 dyas now in Chile and she is from Brasil! I also have to teach her Spanish. I know she will learn fast with the Gift of Tongues and with living here in Chile so I have no worries. She already speaks SO much more than I did when I came to Chile so we will be fine! She is from the south part of Brasil so her accent is very very strong! BUT we live with 2 other Hermanas also from Brasil sooo I have learned to understand what she is saying because I am used to the accent. I am living with 3 Brasilians and the two Elders in my ward are Brasilian too... looks like I am going to be learning some Portuguese!! I am pumped!  So before we had the changes Hermana Knechtel and I were in the house for 3 days because she got so sick! She had strep-throat and then it turned to tonsilitus! She was so sick and we
