and.....STEPH!! thats sooo odd for me to think that she is getting married!! i still can't wrap my head around that! i think its just because im not there for the step by step process but just here getting the weekly updates haha.
Yup down here is getting cold but there still isnt any rain......normally it starts raining in april...we are now in July and not even a drop...the church asked for us to do a Fast so that chile can get rain becasue if not we will be in a huge drought and will be bad...like litterally this last week a house burnt down and Elder Tomaz and i were right there...so sad...their propane tank blew up.....bad cable...in just seconds everything was lost....WE NEED RAIN!!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY SCOTT!!!! i sent him a letter like 2 or 3 weeks ago so he should be getting one soon! i cant believe that he is 11....he is still such a little kid in my mind......its going to be weird that he will have the preisthood when i get back.......WOW! super sick his gun:)
Man i just miss all the activities we did.....they were the best! its sad to be here and be in a ward that only has like 10-15 youth in total and they cant really do anything....the only activity they do really is once a year as a Stake youth go to the beach. Still good but i miss having the ward just overflowing with youth to do stuff ALL THE TIME!!
That was cool to hear about Zaks farewell! that that story to him helped him out, im glad that Even though when i messed up (lost my cool) someone learned the lesson that i learned from just seeing it. He is going to be an amazing missionary. Im so excited to hear how things will go for him and how he will bless those he is serving.
hey you know what i was thinking the other day, Dad is going to be a mission president. Really though, he would be perfect at it. Speaking of mission presidents, Today was the last day for President Wright:( in this moment right now President Morgan is flying here to Chile and tomorrow he starts his Reign. haha But today for our Pday we had a huge activity with President, with half of our mission aswell. We all went to this HUGE park and changed into normal casual clothes and spent the whole day playing soccer, messing around and just enjoying the day. It was kinda weird to have an activity with the Sister missionaries but it was still super cool and fun:) Im really going to miss him and his wife, they have been the best. But im soo looking forward to the New president as well and know that it will be just as amazing:)
This week our investigater Fancisco accepted a Baptismal date and is preparing for it. he is completeing with alll of the Commitments that we give him and he is truly prepared to accept the gospel:) I am falling inlove with the work everyday more and more and more. It is going to be super sad to see the mission one day end because i litterally could do this my whole life.
Thank you for everything:)
I LOVE You:)
Elder Collins.
p.s. CHILE IS GOING INSANE WITH THE AMERICAN SOCCER CUP! walking down the streets with people stopping busses and throwing rocks breaking the windows and hanging out chanting and just going nuts.....hopefully the win....i dont want to see what happens if they lose.......the last game is saturday:)
