Greetings from Antarctica!-- August 8, 2011

Well it´s that time again... cambios. This one will be a little different. I´M TRAINING! I´m super excited! I don´t know who she is or where she´s from yet, but I´m flying up to Osorno tomorrow to be trained in a new program that the church just came out with about training new missionaries. Wow.

Also, our Mamita finally returned! Her husband is a police officer and works on the Chile/Argentina border, so for 30 days at a time he lives in a compound there. The family went to visit him and got trapped in by the snow for a week and a half! We were orphans! Haha. Anyway, she´s back now and we´re very pleased about that.

We found an absolutly amazing investigator on Monday. He looked kindof sad so we went to go talk to him. He said his car had just broken down and he was walking to look for a mechanic. We told him we were missionaries and he said something to the effect of: "That´s amazing, I am looking for religion, what have you got?" We invited him to come with us to the Bishop´s house right then and he accepted. We had a family home evening with them, gave him some folletos and a Book of Mormon and asked him if he would prepare to be baptized by someone with the authority of Jesus Christ. He said yes right then and there. He left the next day to visit family in Santiago, but we called him the other day and he said he´s reading a ton and used the word "spectacular" to describe how it all seemed to him. We are really excited for when he comes back later this month.

Well, that´s pretty much all there is to say for now. I love you!

-Jamie
