September 19-September 23, 2025 Week 12 Centinela Branch, Talcahuano Chile

Hola, I hope yall are doing well. I'm doing great here. This was a short week, I feel like nothing happened but a lot happened at the same time. I''m sure all returned and current missionaries know what I'm talking about πŸ˜‚

TRANSFERS:

I'm staying in Centinela B with Elder Macais. 5 of the 6 of the Elders in our district are staying. This transfer I was able to do exchanges with 3 or the 4 of them. The one I didn't do exchanges with is the one that is getting transfered, Elder Richards. He is going to Hualpen πŸ™

SUMMARY:

-Chilean Independence Day
-Zone conference+ crazy games after
-Bipolar weather- like 2 days were pouring rain and the other 2 were perfect weather 
-We FINALLY have amigos, Franco a 14 year-old baller, and Jackeline a nice older lady
-VAMOS A LA PLAYA (olaja hoy) 

Conference multizone: 

I liked this a lot it was about true conversion and the book of mormon. I was able to understand a lot of what was said. I'm really focused on studying the Book of Mormon for 30 minutes a day- not just reading it but studying it. 

After conference was lit. All the elders changed into ponchos (like Chilean clothes) (I'm going to buy one when I go to the country for next 18th of Semtember). President Lillo and hermana Lillo danced for us and we sang the Chilean national hymn. We played like a Chile race game combined with tug of war, and like a Kendoma race game (I can't really describe, look at my photo album) which was wild cuz we were all in suits. This felt weird because we as missionaries are always like calm and reverent but during these games everyone was screaming πŸ˜‚. But the conference was from 9-5 which was crazy. The conference itself was 10-1, but then we had like 5 hours to play games and have fun. 

QUESTIONS MY GRANDMAS ASKED: 

Both my grandmas asked me questions so I'm going to answer them here! 

1: What is my favorite food I have eaten in Chile? 

Choripan or completos, choripan is like a sauage inside bread and completos are like hot dogs with tomatoes ans guacamole

2: How often do the members feed us? 

Everyday, for my first transfer it was only 1 time we didn't have a lunch. Like 5 times we picked up the food and ate it at the church, 
but like 30+ times we ate with the members

3: Am I in a ward or a branch? 

A branch, Rama Centinela

4: How many people are at church on sunday? 

Like 40 but it varies, there are probably 200 members in the branch but only like 40 are active. 

5: Our there other missionaries in our branch? 

Yes 2 others, the zone leaders. Last tranfer it was Elder Leguizamon (from Argentina) and Elder Richards (from californa). next tranfer its elder leguizamon and elder Acosta (from mexico) - we eat lunch with them everyday and go to the church together for peronal study, so we see them like 2 hours everyday.

Spirtual thought: I'm writing this on the bus trying, so ill keep this short lol
I liked this scipture this week

Ether 12:41
And now, I would commend you to seek this Jesus of whom the prophets and apostles have written, that the grace of God the Father, and also the Lord Jesus Christ, and the Holy Ghost, which beareth record of them, may be and abide in you forever. Amen.

That's pretty much all I got for yall this week. Have a great week! Feel free to email me. I dont always respond but I read them all πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™
