Week 31
Another awesome week here!! Transfers happened Tuesday and I made it here to Puerto Montt and my new area Portal del Mar! The trio life is awesome! Elder Pillpe was my zone leader for a long time and this is his last transfer in the mission and Elder Vilcherres is Chilean and has 3 weeks less in the mission than I do, so we are definitely all learning from each other!
We are in phase 4 here in Puerto Montt and it is a HUGE blessing! We are able to do so much, visit members, eat with members, meet with our amigos in person, it is the best. We have been able to work with the members everyday and I am definitely learning how to work with members, teach lessons and practice, and the ability to ask for references and invite the members to share with everyone.
Two days into the transfer, we visited an awesome amigo. She had been invited to pray to see if she should be baptized. We got to her house, shared with her and at the end decided she wanted to be baptized! We are going to be working very hard for this baptism to happen and I am super super happy and excited for her and her decision!
Lastly, I was finally able to have in person church after 7 months in the mission! It was awesome to be in the church, take the sacrament, and hear the testimonies there! I'm hopeful I will continue to be able to attend church in person!
That's about it, things are going great, I'm happy and working hard :)
Love,
Elder Collin Steele
