elder adams
I'll be serving an LDS Mission in Antafagasta, Chile from January 2014 through January 2016. My purpose as a missionary is to invite others to come unto Christ by helping them receive the restored gospel through faith in Jesus Christ and His Atonement, repentance, baptism, receiving the gift of the Holy Ghost, and enduring to the end.

April 21 2014
This week was so much fun let me just start off by saying this ward in
maray is so awesome everybody treats us, especially me like there son.
On easter every person came and gave us tons of candy to put in a basket
that they gave us for easter. Its was so much fun. Also it was super
funny at the beginning of the week the bishop came into the chapel while
we were having district meeting and asked that me and elder butler give
a talk in church i was super mad until he said that he would make us
lunch on saturday
if we spoke. BUT we had heard rumors about our bishop truley trying to
feed missionarys to death haha no but just until they puke. So we went
over there and he gave us Burgers not like little burgers they were
fetching like JCW´s size burgers and he said we had to eat as many as we
could, elder butler only got 3 i got 6 and now have the record for the
missionarys that have eaten at his house so that made me feel sick and
happy at the same time. We also have been playing this extreme game of
uno called killer uno that elder sherman made it takes normal uno and
blows it out of the water it is so much fetching fun. The only problem
is elder gavillan gets very angry very quickly so we either cant play
anymore or he just needs to relax. Now for the really good stuff this
week was so awesome we placed 4 fechas and preety sure 3 of them in two
weeks will be baptized and i am so excited for them the other one is
very skeptical but we have been working really hard with her to get her
where she is right now she used to be the type of person who would laugh
and make fun of the missionarys and now is taking lessons and really
listening but is just very hard hearted but we have slowly softened it
her birthday was on friday
and she invited us and it was super fun we actually taught a lesson in
front of all her friends and got some of her friends addresses and
numbers so we are going to check those out this week. But i honestly am
just loving the mission, the area, and the people, the language not so
much but i know with time i will love it so much more. Its funny i can
preety much understand everything i just cant speak very well. Except my
talk on sunday
was honestly probably the best talk i have ever given but i did screw
up a few words but thats one great thing about the mission you learn to
not care what people think about you. I love you all so much and hope
you have a good week and "feliz pascua"
