July 9th Letter

Hello Family and  Amigos
Wow this week was tough ... We found some really great new people to teach that are really receptive  and are becoming really involved in the lessons. Nidia is from Columbia and is here working in Chile. The old hermanas were getting ready to  let her go as an investigator but with me we went back and taught with the power of the spirit and now she is loving the gospel more. She has been reading the Book of Mormon consistently and is in mosiah 4.. She loves the stories in the book and is dedicated to reading the book before baptism.. So hopefully she will read a little faster so she can be baptized.. We have another great investigator Gilda who read the Plan of Salvation pamphlet and marked up all the parts that she loved and at the end wrote who is this Jose Smith.. haha it was so sweet she told us she couldn't pray about him cause she didn't know anything about him... So we taught her the Restoration yesterday and it answered all her questions... So we are helping her prepare for a baptism..
The people are great here, just no one wants to attend church which is frustrating cause in the chapel is were we all can feel the Spirit the strongest and receive a stronger testimony of this gospel.  We each spoke yesterday and I taught the class after I was stressing out a little but it went great..
RANDOM FACTS IN THE MISSION
 My cold sore is getting better.
My burnt boy hair is starting to grow..
I have been eating  oatmeal and tons of kiwi thanks to a investigator for that last week which is not fun
We have been running our bums off everyday
my strecthy pants are getting a little baggy !!!
 We ran to central to today to mail letters and then ran/walked back and took a 100 pictures of the beautiful city (  paparazzi pictures of people from a far)
We took a bus around the corner then realized it was the wrong one.. very embarrassing
I said ¨thank you¨to the Chilean water guy who doesn't know English
and I'm slacking on replying to emails.. sorry I´m trying
 LOVE
Hna Burnett
