MATRIMONIO (Marriage)

This week we had a marriage, and it was way cool.  It was a member named Pablo to one of our investigators. Her name is America and she is really cool.  She is excited to get baptized this Saturday and to be a part of the church.  She has been listening to the missionaries for awhile and has a very strong testimony.  It`s going to be cool to see her be baptized!

Thanksgiving is coming up really fast. I remember that I was in the CCM (MTC) when I had last Thanksgiving.  I can`t believe that time has past that fast, to be honest I still feel like I just got to Chile.  

We are working hard here in Iquique, I hope we can find lots of new people this week.  We have kind of been slacking in finding new people and we almost have nobody left to teach!  We are going to talk with everyone this week, and show them love so that they know we are disciples of Christ.

I miss you guys and love you tons.  Take care!

Love,

Elder Hirschi
