Happy Thanksgiving!

This week has been excellent! And our inestigador is looking forward to being baptized this Sunday! His name is Rodrigo Ced and he is a policeman and a man of great faith! He is so excited and studys the Book of Mormon daily and prays like crazy. His wife didint want anything with us but we finally cleared up her doubts and even though she still doesnt want anything..she is letting him excercise his agency. :) Such a beautiful miracle! I love you all! and remember always that miracles happen daily! Look for them anf thank Heavenly Father for them daily! xoxoxo I love you all and miss you!

Love, Hermana Brown

Scripture Power and My Second Visa!! Crazy!

This week has been great! We ahve been working hard and getting a lot of things done. :) However our investigador Camila smoked and therefore cant be baptised so we are trrying to help her break the addiction...but Jorge her stepdad made a committment to stop drinking coffee and tea adn set goals to accomplish it! We were so proud! :) We feel though that Camila doesnt want to set goals because she probably doesnt have a firm testimony about the Book of Mormon so we´ve been woprkinga lot with her so that she can start reading daily instead of every other day. IT helps a lot! There is a huge reason why the primary song talks about scripture power! I really have notivçced the difference in my own life and in the lives of those whom i serve. We tend to have more peace, comfort, happiness, perfect advice and revelation when we read daily. I can notice the big difference when i read and dont due to meetings but i always  try to squeeze in the time even when we cant because it makes a huge difference in the day. I invite all of you to do the same! Scripture study brings scripture power into out lives that is unlike any other. :) Study them! They were given to us for more than one reason! I love you all!! xoxoxxoxox Miss you tons!

Oh and coolest thing over..today i had to do my seoncd visa paperwork and so my companion and i traveled to osorno to do it. I got to see everyone!! The biggest adn greatest surprise ever! I love them all!!

I love you all and pray fr you daily! Miss you tons. Go to God, He answers our prayers..in His perfect way. Study the scriptures, they are the portal in order to receive personal revelation. :) Love you!! xoxoxoxox



On our way to Osorno... Gotta love the long bus rides.

Pivotal moment... I received my carta moroni this week... Im officially old n the mission..but not trunkie lol. :)

This week has been great!

I am with my new companion Hna Valle who is from Washington but was brn in Honduras! She is awesome! We wrok really well together and are trying new thigngs to help the work progress. Our sector is Pichi Pelluco in Puerto Montt and its beautiful! We ahve 6 people with a baptismal date and are progressing! Camila will be baptised this following week on the 22nd of November. Her dad Jorge has a date but he isnt progressing so we might have to drop him but we are tryignt o find out what he needs. Eliana we found yesterday adn accepted a baptisdmal date for december! She is amazing! She has serisouly been prepared by angels. :) I love my sector and im excited to be here and to help teh ward a lot. :) I ask all of you that havent yet participated in missionary work that you do so now. We need your help.. We are sent to help YOU with the work. I love you all! I miss you all tons!! xoxoxox Also i wanted to share with you guys somthings i learned this week in my studies and scriptures that really helped me and touched my heart:

We are like diamonds; afflictions and furnaces of fire refines us (1 Nephi 20:10)

"Awake, my soul! No longer droop in sin. Rejoice, O my heart, and give place for the enemy of my soul" (2 nephi 4:28). It was talking about how we have experienced so amny great and marvelous things and that even though we need to be humble, we need to rejoice and be happy becasue the Lord is at our side. We may fall but we can get back up again. :)

I love and miss you all! Keep your heads up! You´re doing better than you think. :) Keep trying and keep persevering while enjoying!

Yesterday as i was observing how beautiful is Gods creations and the skies, I realized that when we are with our heads down...we tend to not see all of the blessings and beautiful creations that surround us..we may see some but our sight is limited but whe we keep our head high, trusting in the Lord we see a lot more beauty in the Earth and more blessigns that flood our lives adn fill them with JOY! Afterall God created us so that we may have JOY! I love you all and I know that God does too! xoxoxox Always remember that! xoxoxoxo

Coolest and Best Week Ever!

This week i was able to see Ricardo get baptized and Sntonia! Both of which i had the great blessing of teaching. IT was the most beautiful thing ive ever seen. They were both so excited. Ricardo was a reference from the Yefe Family when i was in Colón in Puerto Varas. We were able to teach them a few times then we had transfers and the Elders had the great blessing of finishing the lessons. We were all so grateful to see him take such a great step to follow the Lord and obey His commandments. It was beautiful. Then after I said goodbye to everyone and all the memebers that were there. This time I had the feeling that it was for real becasue i felt like i was going to get transfered out of Puerto Varas...which i figured out yesterday that it was true. Then we got to witness Antonia get baptized. She has 8 years old and is a little angel. Seriosuly... and she understadn everything so well. Her baptism was also very beautiful and reminded me of my own. It was a very beautiful experience. We were able to teach her the lessons and create fun new ideas in order to help her understand. :)

So like i stated earlier. i am getting transfered out of my sector in Imperial I in Puerto Varas to Pichipilluco 2 (I have no idea how to spell it) in Puerto Montt. :) Im excited for a new adventure and to help the people there. I will miss everyone here but i know that everything will be fine because everything is guided by revelation to help the people progress and receive and love the gospel more fully. Danitza stil has a bapstismal date for the 21st of November, please pray for her to be brave and to continue to progress. Im so grateful for the opportunity i had to be here. I love the people here..adn especially in Puerto Varas. Theyll always have a big piece of my heart!

 I love you all!! xoxoxo I miss you tons!

Love, Hermana Brown
