I Love Chile!





Family!
First call to repentence…MYSELF! We changad p day to today because its Hna. Guevaras birthday! We didnt know last week so I couldnt forewarn you, but p day is right now. From now on, p day is on Saturday and you can expect another email from me this Saturday. Dad, I got your email about the ebeneezer just seconds after you sent it. I think its a great (although slightly hilarious) and very YOU idea! It was special to be in the same cyberspace as you at the same time.

Friends, Family…thanks for your support! Big shout outs to gma and gpa bourne YET AGAIN! WOW. Thanks for you love and support. Shout outs to TEEF Today is five days after thanksgiving day…everything seems to be going my waaaaaaaaaay! Love you teef. Thanks to cam king! (I can only write one email a week to my family and thats it, but Ill be sending off a nice little letter to you no worries!get me your address!) Andy, you are the best! I want to hear about the five month adventure asap! (maybe you will learn how to speak spanish!! BROMA!) 

Great week! Im in this trio, and while I absolutely adore my companions, I really dont like the set up of a trio for missionary work...but Im learning! This week we saw a few miracles! Viki is this 18 year old golden woman who is in the process of defying her parents to be baptised. We are fasting and praying for her all the time and she CAME TO CHURCH this Sunday. It was a miracle because her parents have forbidden it...but she came and had a wonderful experience. Carolina (the baptism picture) is golden too. the missionaries hardly did anything and she is so stalwart...Im amazed at people like her. Ah...my testimony of: where there are female members of the chruch...there is offense grew this week. Thats a whole other story...but all is well.

I have more Chilean twins to report! I eat lunch with a baby Thayne Davis every single day...his name is Martin and its just creepy how much they look alike. Also...my Zone leader (who is Chilean), Elder Cuadras is JAMES BOURNE. Check out the picture of my zone painting a nearby Jardin and see if you can spot him!

Family, Friends... I love you all. Thanks for your support, prayers, emails, and influence on my life. I did nothing to deserve all of you. The gospel is true. Its SO easy to forget and fall into a routine of mediocrity. We need to be on our game. This week, my testimony that the "Sunday School answers ARE the answers" grew. I am bearing my testimony out to every person to just read, pray, and go to church. We see miracles when the people do these things. SO simple. SO powerful. SO easy not to do. SO commandments from God. READ, PRAY, GO TO CHURCH. If we do these things daily (and church weekly) well have an added measure of the spirit and greater capacity to do what we need to do AND what the Lord needs us to do. Read MOsiah 2:41. Well be blessed in all things spiritually AND temporaly. I lvoe you all, I love my Savior, I love my father in Heaven. I love Chile. 
Love, Hermana Bourne
