December 26- December 29, 2025 Week 26-Coihueco Branch, Coihueco

How was your Christmas? Mine was very fun. It was awesome and very hot 

It's only been like 3 days since the last p-day, but it's p-day again!! So you get to hear from me again 

Christmas:

On Christmas Eve we had multizone zone conference in Chillan that was pretty lit. And then in that night we went to the branch president's house, and stayed until 12 midmight. We hung out and  played games and ate like turkey at like 11 at night. But that was pretty lit. 

More about my area and branch:

So I'm in a city called Coihueco. It is a very small town and it is probably one of the most isolated areas in the mission. But, it is a very chill little town. We live in a field, and we have a nice view. Lots of the members have to drive like 1 hour + to church. But the "big city" next to us is chillan (It's about an hour away). We are in a stake called Chillan Nuble. The branch has like 30 members who come to church every Sunday, and the members are very nice. 

Rest in peace Elder Holland. Now, y'all already know that because my fav apostle died I gotta make the spiritual thought about him. Elder Holland was by far my favorite apostle to listen to his general conference talks. I probably have listened to almost all of his talks.

But this whole week and honestly my whole mission of course, I've been studying the atonement of Jesus Christ.

I love this quote by Elder Holland: 

"Brothers and sisters, one of the great consolations of this Easter season is that because Jesus walked such a long, lonely path utterly alone, we do not have to do so. His solitary journey brought great company for our little version of that path—the merciful care of our Father in Heaven, the unfailing companionship of this Beloved Son, the consummate gift of the Holy Ghost, angels in heaven, family members on both sides of the veil, prophets and apostles, teachers, leaders, friends. All of these and more have been given as companions for our mortal journey because of the Atonement of Jesus Christ and the Restoration of His gospel. Trumpeted from the summit of Calvary is the truth that we will never be left alone nor unaided, even if sometimes we may feel that we are. Truly the Redeemer of us all said, “I will not leave you comfortless: [My Father and] I will come to you [and abide with you].”

Jesus suffered alone so we would never have to 

Well, I'll write to y'all next year!
