Week 22 San Gabriel

Happy (Late) Monday!

Hello! I'm a little late again today, we had a P-day where we went to the Christ statue in Chorrillos. Thanks for waiting haha, it was a great time!


It's good to hear about the mission calls for Parker and Cole!!! Parker's going to China!! That is absolutely insane! That is was amazing to read! And Cole is going to be my neighbor, that's awesome too! It was also awesome to hear about the Bishop smackdown on Sunday!
We had a great week! We saw a miracle on Sunday with 6 investigators at church, that was awesome. We got a family there and a couple of progressing investigators. We found a guy named Walter, glad we found him because he could really use the Gospel in his life. His wife ran away, his daughters moved to Argentina, and he is really poor and lonely. He wants to change and we hope that we can help him get to the Church and help him change his life!

I came to a profound realization the last couple of days... I'm being a turkey!! Just a little confession for a sin I've committed, I haven't thought very much about Timberline in my mission. These last couple of days in my PMG study I've been thinking about principles I've learned at that inspired camp and my personal revelation is skyrocketing haha. I've almost forgotten that I was a teacher of the teachers of the teachers one year. I already have extremely good teaching skills I just need to dust them off a little bit. I promise you I will apply those inspired teaching principles, Timberline truly impacted my life, I just gotta let it impact me again. This week I thought a lot about the vision of my area, how many people with baptismal dates, personal growth in me. I learned a lot from thinking about that. This week I'm going to study "What is the 'Timberline' of the mission"

That's my time thanks for writing everyone!! Gotta be honest, I prayed that the whole family would write and it happened, church is true haha.
Con amor y oración,

Ethan,
Thanks for your letter man!! It was good to hear that you just shook that girl off that was being a jerk. If I learned anything throughout my life, I gotta say it's just shaking what people say off and being you! Remember that, and remember that your family loves you and the Lord loves you. Thanks again man!
Te amo mucho hermanito,
