HELLO ALL OF YOU BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE IN THE WORLD. THIS WEEK WAS PRETTY INSANE. LET ME EXPLAIN...... so the ward i was working in previously had 4 missionaries attached to it. me and the three others. once i got switched though, they took out two missionaries and combined the sector to make one massive sector. me and elder whitaker have been SWAMPED with people to teach. its been a huge blessing! the only downside is that we walk so much in one day. i have a step counter on my belt for when we go out, and the average distance covered in one day is around 7-8 miles....ya. a lot. i am going to be as bout as thin as a sheet of paper when i come back home, not even joking. one of the miracles that had happened this week was being able to contact a mother who was watching one of her kids playing in a little soccer field. we told her about the restoration of the gospel and she gave us her address to come back. when we went into the cita, her entire family welcomed us into the door with open arms and smiles! it was so awesome! they were so excited to see what we had to share. the husband had already taken some of the lessons in the past, but then he moved from the south to santiago, so he didnt know where he could get the elders back. he was saying that he had read basically all of the book of mormon and wanted to continue taking the lessons. literally a tender mercy! one of the funny things that happened to me this week was when the cousin of the hermanas giving us lunch told me i had really pretty lips. i told her thank you, and she just kept staring at them and told me that she wishes that she had my lips. the whole family got angry at her and was like "ARE YOU KIDDING ME BETHANY YOU ARE COMMENTING ON AN ELDERS LIPS THATS SO SCANDALOUS EW". i was on the floor laughing it was so good. these next couple weeks are going to be intense!! we have three baptismal dates set, and we are working our butts off! keep praying for them elder dudes, cause we really need it. love all of you! EKW SUPER excited for Christmas. my package made it with plenty of time mom i bought women's pants because its literally so hot and these are so comfortable . you know you all wish you had a pair rate my set up.cardboard box book shelf, and a Chilean plate for incense ash..it's lit
