Hey fam how are you?!
So I'm doing great this p day. I is super rainy but what can you do. Like yesterday was like the worst day that we have had I'm pretty sure. We were soaked!! Like all of our stuff got soaked too. Elder Abel (my comp) had all of his stuff get wet! Like his Book of Mormon and Bible. So he was pretty upset. We were in the rain like all day. We taught one lesson. But he was really awesome. He is a new. We are finding some really awesome people we just have to get back into their house. That is the problem. But his books and all his documents got wet and stuff. I feel bad. He did pretty good at getting things back to order. Well his documents. He ironed them and threw some books on top. Those look good at least. But all my clothes were just soaked. It was just bad. But we are good here today. It's been raining but not too bad. Just sprinkling. It's ok. But we are just hanging out. We have been in the house like all day because it's been raining and we just don't have anything to do. So it has been just really relaxed and hanging out. But I finally just pulled out my boots and I'm going to be using them today. Oh and I am getting my scripture stuff soon. Well I'm ordering it but I'm met the lady and stuff and she is going to do it really fast because they are friends with Paula or the daughter of papito and mamita. So I'm super excited about that. But it has been a good week. We have had success. And a little miracle happened yesterday. We have members from Argentina because we are the closest building to them. And they have a little brother who is staying with them and they want him to get baptized. He is 11 years old. So he has come to church with me 2 times already and so all we have to do is teach him and I'm pretty sure that is what we are going to do and he can get baptized technically in two weeks once he comes to church one more time with me. So we are really excited for that. They want him baptized because he is living with them. So that is really awesome. We are getting a little miracle from the Lord. It's awesome to see. We are super excited!!
But other than that we are just having a great time in Puerto Natales. Just teaching the sector to my new comp. He is from Washington. But he graduated the same year I did but went to Notre Dame instead of working. So that was cool. Going to Punta Arenas was fun. Like always we just sat on the bus for 3 hours. But we slept because we left in the morning at 7 and had to wake up early at like 5ish. Because Elder Ruettinger had to finish packing. But that time went by way too fast. Just weird to think that I'm up next. It doesn't even feel like I've been here for that long. It's crazy. I did get my package but I haven't opened it yet. I figured I'd wait because I'm not going to have anything else right? So I figured it be better to wait and have something on my birthday. But I'm ok with waiting.
So I sent you guys the big one because I figured that I would probably get another big one for me too. Just because that is a part of Chile especially down here in the south with the Maupuchans. They are the indians of southern Chile. Some type of Lamanites haha. But I can wait. Did you give them all out for me? Well the little ones. They are so funny. I'm pretty sure that we did go off of daylight savings but I don't even know. I'm pretty sure but I don't have any idea. But we are great here that's about all that I know. Oh but yes it is dark here a lot now. But I'm ok with it. It's awesome. I don't mind the dark. It's definitely easier to sleep haha even though we have huge blankets over the windows here. Everybody does. Or their blinds are really thick and they have two kinds of blinds. But either way it doesn't let any light in. So that is awesome. Oh just for your fun fact of the day. Yes the toilet does flush counter-clockwise. So yes it's very entertaining. Very fun. But as for the Southern Cross I have not seen it. There hasn't been like a ton of constillations or stars. But oh well what can you do?
Wow you guys are doing good with the Book of Mormon. I'm in Ether like 8-10. I can't remember exactly. But I know that I'm almost done. And when I finish I am going to start the Doctrine and Covenents for my Personal Study. Well part of it. So that is going to be great!!
Well we are working hard!! I love all you guys so much and I hope that your having a great week and day and life haha. But I hope to hear from all of you soon. I know that I'm here for a reason and I'm doing my best to find that reason. I love the Gospel and our Savior. I am trying to bring people unto him to make their lives better. And I know that is what our message is. Happiness. It's amazing. Well I love you guys. Thanks for all the support and love in return!! Talk to you guys later.
Love,
Elder Tyler Jolley
P.S. Sorry I don't have any new pics yet to send to you guys. Next week hopefully!
