Called to Serve: Chile Rancagua : Week 68: Hitler Guy Part 2

This week was great!

Fun story to start off...and explain the subject line. We were contacting a bunch of people a couple days ago, shortly before we had to head home. It was getting dark and I went to stop a gentleman walking by. It was a very interesting contact and basically I didn't recognize Hitler guy since I have a terrible memory. But after he realized I didn't remember him, he hailed Hitler again and took off. I will not be forgetting his face this time. Things like this just keep us on our toes--haha!

One of my favorite investigators a couple weeks ago came up to us after sacrament meeting to tell us he was ready to be baptized. We did a pre-interview this week where he basically taught us everything and then we had the real interview yesterday right before general conference. It has been so beautiful to see him progress and how the spirit has touched his heart. His baptism will be this next week. And it is beautiful to see someone with a bigger perspective too. He has goals to work with his family and eventually take them to the temple. I am so excited about them and their faith and testimony. One of the sweetest miracles we have had while here in Talca.

And....GENERAL CONFERENCE!!! how about that??? I LOVED it! And big tender mercy...we got to watch it in English. It went by way too quickly, but I am so grateful we have the opportunity to listen and read and study and apply everything even after the fact!

A couple things that I loved:

¨Along with the bright colors of happiness and joy, the darker colored threads of trial and tragedy are woven deeply into the fabric of our Father´s plan. These struggles, although difficult, often become our greatest teachers.¨

¨Believe. Love. Do.¨

¨We can and should find joy when we face hard things.¨
