Hey hows it going?  Here is a little run down of things that happened this week... Thursday. We had interviews with president  Friday : We had the council meeting with president, all the zone leaders and the assistants. after I did divisions with Elder Burnett he got to the mission the same time as I did.  Saturday: Was a pretty normal day. That night we had correlation with our new ward mission leader. Sunday : We went to church, at church I taught the principles of the gospel class about prophets and then I taught the priesthood class about the Sabbath day and the sacrament.  Later that day we were walking on the side of the road and some guys that were driving by in the back of a drunk dumped coke on us. I was standing closer to the road so most of it hit me. I was pretty mad.  Monday : WE had divisions with the assistants. I stayed in my sector with Elder Grau from Spain. It was a really fun division. Tuesday : We had our district meet...

Hi  hows it going This past week Fabian was baptized and his step dad baptized and confirmed him.  This past week I finished reading doctrine and convenants and the pearl of great price. I really like the pearl of great price. I am trying to decide what to read next though I kind of want to read the old testament but I don`t know if ill have time to read all of it. I could also read the new testament again.  Today for pday we went to play soccer at a big field.  Thanks for everything  Love Elder Austin

hi!  Well the highlight of this past week was yesterday when Elder Christofferson and his wife came to our mission. The meeting was supposed to start at  10:00am  but when we got to the mission office at 8:15  there was already a bunch of missionaries there and like at 8:30  the mission Rancagua showed up. Then Elder Christofferson got there along with Elder Bragg a seventy from the area presidency with there wives. We all got to go up and shake their hands and then they started the meeting.  At the meeting the 2 mission presidents and there wives gave shorter testimonies.   After Elder Bragg and His wife and then Elder Christofferson and his wife spoke.  Some interesting things that I liked. Of the two mission presidents, a seventy and an apostle and all their wives I am pretty sure not one of them didn`t mention the book of mormon.  I think pretty much every leader in the church has been talking about it so i t...

Hi, how is it going. Things have been going good, Elder Gowers was my first comp in my last ward parque combarbabla. Being a zone leader is pretty fun we have to go to more meetings but its cool. Last week I forgot to tell you that we had a council meeting with Elder Texiera the area president and the other zone leaders. The best part is that they give us papa johns after the council meetings so that right there it is worth it. The ward appears to be pretty good though, it is a really big sector though. It is pretty much at the edge of santiago so there are some fields and open space. But we mainly just stay with in the main more populated part because there aroun`t as many houses out far and it takes a while to walk there. On sunday something really cool happened. We had got to church and we were waiting for it to start and Junior came in the church (the first junior haitiano that was in the ward los raulies not the Junior I just taught in my last ward) and turns out he had just moved...

Hi, well it turns out I did have changes. Starting of last week president called me and told me I would be a zone leader.  So then I knew I would have changes.  After he told elder rodriguez where I was going and who my comp would be.  A lot of other people knew too so when the change meeting came I already thought I knew were I was going and who my comp was going to be, but turns out president made some last minute changes and I got sent to another place to be with elder Gowers, a comp I have already had. So that whole sequence was pretty crazy.  So pretty much I am in the zone Ohiggins in the ward Ducuad. I am back in a zone with out sister missionaries. We are zone leaders together. I just got to the ward yesterday so I am still figuring things out. } This past week was pretty crazy because it the last week of elder rodriguez so we had to go to a bunch of meeting and do a bunch of things. We haven´t really have had time to study for the past 1 week and a half b...
