March 17-March 23, 2026 Week 38-Coihueco Branch, Coihueco

 HOLA A TODOS!

What's up? how we doing?

Another awesome week down here in Chile. just living the life you know. Inviting all to come unto Christ by faith, repentance, baptism and receiving the holy ghost every day πŸ’ͺπŸ’ͺπŸ’ͺ

I miss march madness, but good year to miss it #ripzags #ripbyu

We went to a print shop to print out papleitos (like a calendar to remind our friends of their commitments) and march madness brackets had come out and I had talked to the ZLs and we were going to do a pool as a zone. we didn't but I had printed out 24. I brought them to the conferencia multizona and people heard I had them. So after the conference I was like a drug dealer vending brackets πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

WHAT HAPPENED:
Ate KFC (shoutout Hermano Sierra) (estΓ‘ rico para chupar los dedos-it's fingering licking good)

It has cooled down here in Coihueco Chile (finally), but it is raining a lot. But when it is not raining it is perfect outside. 

We had conferencia multizona. Lowkey a big let down not going to lie πŸ˜‚, until President and hermana lillo spoke. There was a lot of presentations about doing weekly and daily planning according to what preach my gospel says. And like who was not already doing that? But nah it was still good and I learned some great stuff that I shall apply. 
But president and hermana lillo spoke about how the baptism isn't the ending point but we need to help our friends keep processing and help prepare them to go to the temple! I'm going to make this a big focus on helping my friends get baptized for their ancestors in the temple and help prepare them for their endowments. 

Had conferencia de la estaca, in chillan which is like an hour away from us here in Coihueco, but we still had a friend in church and one of our recent converts. 

Our friends:

Katalina, she is a 14 year old girl that her parents are coming back to the church who is not member. she is nice and very shy πŸ˜‚ she will be baptized in April most likely πŸ’ͺ

Carlos: he is 16 and he is awesome. he looks like he could be 25. But we played pingpong with him one day this week and that was pretty fun. He'll be baptized 5th of April πŸ˜Ž

we have some other friends but those are the notable ones. 

Spiritual Thought:
During stake conference one of the counselors in the stake presidency spoke about Moroni 10:32, about denying ourselves of all ungodliness. Which basically means letting go of everything that keeps us from coming unto Christ. It was a great talk and he talked about putting off the natural man and letting God's will be the most important thing in our lives. 
I listened to the talk "deny yourself of all ungodliness" by Neil A. Maxwell and I would recommend. 
But I was reflecting on the questions: 
What I am doing that I need to stop doing to be more like Christ?
What I am not doing that I need to start doing to be more like Christ?

I would invite you all to reflect in ways that you can draw closer to the Savior especially during general conference πŸ˜Ž

Muchas gracias por leer, que tengan una buena semana! (Thank you for reading and have a good week)
