Cha cha cha changes


So long Elder Bustamante ... my Chilean friend. ;0(

I'm am sooooo stoked for Rex to go out on a mission! man he's going to do awesome down there in Brazil. Maybe he will run into Cody Buhler?! Awesome news. Thanks for letting me know about that. It's always good to hear what's going on with my people back there. Sounds like Youth Conference was a blast too. 

But yeah! You got the letter...I am a now a district leader..annnnd a trainer..annd I'm still learning Spanish all at the same time hahaha. Holy cow. I'm super nervous but it should be way awesome. I think I'm going to learn a lot during this next transfer. My companion, Elder Bustamante, just left today. I'm so sad to see my Chilean friend go. He has had a huge impact on me. I'll never forget that guy. He has taught me so much.

Well I just moved out of our apartment a couple days ago into some member's home. They are awesome!!!! It's a thousand times better living with these guys. One morning we woke up and they had a ton of pancakes for us =D Yeah, the dad is a cop so that scares me sometimes. But anyways, I'm already loving it in the new place.

But this week was a solid week though. A couple days ago it was raining, and we were just outside walking. We saw this Hispanic lady and her family running down the street, so we stopped by and started to talk to them. It turns out that this lady is a less active member! (You'll find a lot of them in Idaho). She graciously let us in her home. Immediately she starting unfolding her story about how she lost her husband a year ago and how she has lost faith in everything. We were able to testify of God's love for her. We taught a wonderful lesson and we gave her a priesthood blessing afterwards. It was a  super special experience.
