Week 65: Talca Twist



Hey everyone! 

It was a very eventful week. We had our zone conference this last Wednesday in Curico (like going home--haha!! Love Curico) with President de Hoyos and his wife, and President Villar, from the area presidency. It was a wonderful conference with half the mission combined. Fun to see everyone and to learn all together. It took a lot to get there, traveling and all, but worth it!

We also attended a beautiful baptism this last Saturday to help out with the music...and receive cambios--haha! I am staying here in Talca! With Hermana Collins. We are excited for this cambio and to celebrate our birthday together--haha. 






I was not expecting to stay in Talca, which is part of the twist, but the other part of my subject line has to do with my companion spraining her ankle, which was not fun. But she has been very positive and upbeat about it and we are working, slowly but surely. 



We also had a small ward activity this week to celebrate the 18 de septiembre. We learned to dance la cueca, the traditional dance of Chile, and we ate a lot of food. It was a lot of fun and the Chileans
know how to party! This week is all holiday, and full of empanadas and BBQs. It is a bit slow with the work, but there are still plenty of miracles and lots of food--haha.






Thought of the week: 

¨Be of good cheer. The future is as bright as your faith.¨--President Monson

I like that. We decide what were going to do and who we are going to be. And if I have learned anything about faith...faith is a gift! And like any good gift, we must ask and be humble. But it is available. The future should be very bright indeed!

Love you all! Have an excellent week!

Con amor, 
Hermana Eibert
