This week was rather fun. We had a baptism
yesterday for Matìas Càrcamo, a nine year old boy who reminds me a lot
of Isaac. Isaac has his nintendo, Matias has his playstation. I feel a
little like we baptized Isaac. Funny how that happens. One of the
members here looks like Uncle Clint. I`ll have to take a photo.
We now have to start the process of retaining our new members,
something that wasn`t done for a long time in Chile, and explains the
large number of inactive members. But these new members will stay
active. It sounds like things are starting to warm up up there. Things
are still the same here. It starts cooling down in April. Oh, and
something comical to cheer up your day. Before, I was teaching english
classes, and one of the other elders in the ward was teaching piano
classes. He left last week. His replacement doesn`t know piano, nor
english. So now I am teaching piano and my companion, who is from
Bolivia and speaks decent english, is now teaching english. Pray for the
piano classes. Please.
I love you, I miss you, and I sent photos.
Yours truly,
Elder Hjelm
