Temple in Concepción!

This week we found some new people with interest in the message, but due to my cold (I’ve now got 13 days) it’s been a little difficult to have a lot of appointments because people don’t want to get sick and I don’t want to get them sick. It seems like I might be getting a little better though, so we should be good. 🙂 I’m excited as well as nervous for the puertas abiertas. It should be amazing, but it’s gonna be a lot of talking to people. Honestly I think it’ll end up being more than normal because I won’t have time for studies every day, and that’s gonna be a challenge for me, but it should be good. Hermana Judkins and I will be working the reception tent and the introduction tent with the videos during the 17th and the 18th as well as the 22nd through the 25th. So yesterday they gave us a tour of the temple and explained to us what we would be doing. Pretty much all of the Hermanas cried as we went through the sealing room. It was pretty trunky. :S The whole mission is getting pretty excited about this and it looks like all of the members and non members are as well. We should be getting a lot of good references as people go through and learn about the temple in the tours. I feel very blessed to get to be one of the missionaries in Concepcion sur at this time because the work is progressing a lot here in this mission. I’ve gotten to learn so much here on the mission, and one of the biggest things that I think I’ve learned is the importance of family and I know that families can be eternal. I also know that no family is perfect. We’ve all got lots to learn together.
