Wow we are so blessed in this life, I just want to let you guys
know how much I love my Lord and God, he is my Savior and I love him! He has
done so much for me and I pray that my actions will always be actions of thankfulness. Also we should also work to find and bring
the glory of God to his sons and daughters that are a little bit lost from the
path! This week was amazing and we had a great baptism this Saturday! He was
then confirmed this Sunday! He is a great kid, his name is Mauricio R., he is a
marine and he is 19 years old. I love
connecting and helping young men my age enter into the gospel! It makes the
teaching even more one on one as you look into the eyes of a young man who has basically
the same age but has passed through so much more hardship that I could ever imagine!
It makes me feel so grateful to know how the Lord gave me this gospel since
birth! I have been prepared since birth to teach the gospel! ITS MY TIME TO
SHINE. SO MANY PEOPLE NEED ME, I CANNOT GIVE UP! so many people are out there
that need an Elder Passey, but the funny thing is that they don’t need me, they
need me to teach them the gospel! That’s really all that I can do. I’m an instrument. Its great to think that it depends on us
however to see our own success and goals throughout the mission!
So Mauricio is a pure stud muffin! Of course the font did not
work so we filled it up with a fire hose! hahahaha It took about three of us to
keep the hose under control! but it filled up with nice icy water. It’s a missionary’s
dream here to baptize in warm water, and to be honest it never works hahaha so
we just get brought back down to reality as we realize that this world is
amazing! After all, icy water is water, and I would totally go down into icy
water every day to baptize! The thing is that Mauricio goes to the south of Chile
to do some marine training! He is gone for two weeks and then comes back for
church! how dedicated is that! I have come to love the Chilean people or their
diligence to do stuff! They do have this attitude where they will never give
up! I have so many faces kept in my mind from all the older people who literally
walk to church up and down hills! whoa! stellar!
IN ONE DAY WE HIKED UP MORE THAN 1000 STAIRS, AND THATS WHEN WE
DECIDED TO COUNT HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA IM TOTALLY FILLING THE BURN IN MY LEGS
So I have been suffering from allergies, its been tough and I
have felt really weak from it. I just begin to sneeze and then my nose starts
to run and then it always happens in the night so at least I’m not in public as
I start to go crazy. But to be honest
with all my hospital visits I have had recently with dog bites and stuff I do
not want to ever go and start taking medicine, I’m not a fan of Chilean
medicine, maybe its the same maybe not! I heard that missionary’s have taken
some stuff here and then it makes it better for a while then they get even more
sick and their bodies get this allergy for the rest of there lives, so I give
that a no go! I will push through this no mas and I will make it through, we
are almost out of spring so it will get better!
I
love you all so much!
