TOO WEAK TO WRITE THIS WEEK!
December 27, 2017
*Elder Sierra was very ill this morning and began vomiting from 4:30am to noon. Needless to say, he wasn't up for writing a letter but did 'chat' with us online for a few minutes. Here are the highlights of that conversation (minus all the gory details of his wretched state 😖)
We had an appointment with a family on Christmas Day and it actually went great. They accepted a baptismal date and they asked if they could be in a co-living arrangement and we were like, "Nah." When we told them they had the option of living separately or marrying, Camila got kind of serious and said, "Well, I guess you'll have to just find a place to live then!" I was like Ammon over there: "Nunca he visto tanta fe! SÃ, aun entre los [Chilenos]!" (translation: Never have I seen such great faith even among all the Nephites (or, in this case, Chileans) They are neat people; they just have a hard condition because Camila especially wants to quit smoking cigarettes and marijuana but everyone in their house does it, so it's hard. They have a 2-year old child together, so I doubt they do it in the house, but Camilla really wants to get married or split up.
They've accepted a baptism date for Feb. 24th. If they don't make it, they'll be way closer than they've ever been to baptism anyway.
But guys, I love you all a TON, but it's not good for me to keep writing. I need some rest
Take Care!
