Hermana Daly~May 25, 2009~Yay for kids!!

Hola familia!!
> Just got back from a zone activity where we saw some hieroglyphics, which turned out to be rock designs but still kinda cool lol. We hiked to the top of the hill where there was an “altar for animal sacrifices”. We talked about sacrifices we could make to purify our lives and how to apply Christ´s ultimate sacrifice to our lives. We then made a covenant together for this cambio to put everything on the altar of sacrifice and obey with exactness, so we can purify our lives. Very fun!! Then after I ate a pastel de choclo (corn/meat pie that is so good and the corn is like the sweet corn from Cheveys…so of course I just love it)!
> This week was good! Yesterday we brought 6 kids with us to Church. We felt like little mommies walking with our group of kids to Church and then after to drop each of them off at their different houses. There is Grace (14 years old) and Cristian (8) who are investigadores and super bueno! Then another Cristian (12) who is also a new investigador and reference/friend of a member. And then two kids from the Olmos Family who are a family of 9 kids and inactive. We are trying to work with the younger kids who aren´t baptized. So our miracles are found in the youth and kids of Arica!! It is miraculous how little kids understand the importance of the Gospel and easily understand gospel principles, unlike many adults. I have really seen why our Heavenly Father wants us to become as little children. They are incredible and faithful when taught correct principles.
> Oh and yesterday we a ward mission leader was also finally called for us! Him and his wife are a younger couple that just moved here two weeks ago. He also served in this mission in 2000 and has lots of ánimo for missionary work. So we are way excited to work with him.
> And that´s about it! We have zone conference this week, so that should be motivating. Love you all!! Happy Graduation Alanea!! And Happy Baby showers Steph and Ness…I want to see pics of your guys happy and pregnant lol!! Oh – and I listened to your tape Britnee and Amanda…laughed lots --- yay and congrats for engagements Brit!! Take lots of pics of all your wedding stuff for me!! And congrats on law school Amanda!
