¿Cómo están todos? We just had a great P-day! Way early in the morning we went to the beach and picked up trash...i want to just jump in the water...it was perfect climate (cool because it was still a bit dark outside)...it reminded me of the early morning runs at Shasta...haha ya estoy trunky, just kidding :) But after cleaning up at the beach, we went to the church and a few members from Ecuador played a little concert for us with all their wooden instruments and indian costumes. It was soooo cool and I loved the music. I bought their CDs after. And Hermana Trávez was happy because they are from where she is from...happy reunion. Then we ate tacos after...mmmm. So it was a great day!This past week went great too because we had lots of help from a few members and had lots of lessons. Everyone continues to progress and Rodrigo even said he wanted to get baptized. We put a date for three weeks, but then he got sick Sunday and didn´t go to church, but it said for sure he is going to come the next week and that he feels like the things we teach are true. So we are happy for him and hope he continues to progress towards a baptism.Everything is happy and great...still can´t believe this is my last week and I try not to think about it lol. Work, work, work. I am grateful for the Gospel and for this time to share it with all. <br />
Love you all!!! -Hermana DalyCaranhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17847694873815775947noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1245316467486474072.post-80007183716112509542010-02-15T10:52:00.000-08:002010-02-15T10:52:25.765-08:00Hermana Daly~February 15, 2010 ~ "the mission continues to find those that the Lord is preparing"Hola familia!<br />
So one of the hermanas who was supposed to leave with me, Hermana Lappaleinen, went home early today for problems with her knees. She spent her last day with Hermana Trávez and I because Origenes was her first sector, so she got to say her goodbyes to everyone at church. She was way sad to go...and it was way weird that she was leaving...I just keep telling myself that I was lots more time left haha. But this week was great! We found some great new investigadors. One of our new investigadors, Rodrigo, is 22 and is in search of learning more of God. He loved the first lesson and was so grateful to receive a Book of Mormon. We left him 3 Nefi 11 and invited him to read and pray. He then said, “frankly Hermanas, I´m going to read from the beginning to get to 3 Nefi 11 because I love to read and especially books as special as this one, that is from God.” Wow!!! He said he was going to go to Church too, but didn´t show up...we are going to pass by this week to see what happened, but he is a great investigador!We are also sharing a lot with the Columbian couple (i don´t remember if I already told you about them). Juila wants to get baptized, but then when we found out they are convive (not married), she was a bit bummed because she doesn´t want to get married. But Andres is really starting to open up to the gospel and always has tons of questions. He is reading the scriptures and said a prayer in the lesson yesterday! They are great...and Columbian food is yummy too haha.So the mission continues and we continue to find those that the Lord is preparing to hear the Gospel. I love it!!! Keep sharing the gospel and serving and loving others!! That is what is most important and what counts. <br />

¿Cómo están? So I´m starting to realize that my time is coming up…and it´s way weird. I went to my last zone conference and gave my “farewell” talk with all those that are leaving this cambio. There was lots to meditate on and look back on my mission, the things I´ve done, the things I´ve learned, the people I´ve known, and who I´ve become. It´s great to see the changes and the experiences…now I´m just scared to go back to normal life and maintain the good changes haha…not that I was a bad person before, but I think I´ve definitely matured. Crazy!!! Ya enough with the reflextion…We learned lots in the conference and especially talked about the importance of Preach My Gospel as modern scripture that we need to study and use more. It´s my goal to continue using and studying it when I get home. Truly if all the members read and study it, they would understand more the importance of missionary work and what they can do and what they can say to share the Gospel. Also, the Elders from my MTC group are awesome and have grown so much…I´m grateful to have known them and taken part in their changes. All of them are leaders and assistants to Presidente Urra…and two of them gave presentations in zone conference. So awesome!! All boys need to go on missions…it truly is a commandment for a reason!Well I love everyone tons…don´t get too trunky lol, just kidding!!! <br />
Have a great week and Valentine´s Day :) -Hermana DalyCaranhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17847694873815775947noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1245316467486474072.post-44571587986256587142010-02-01T07:56:00.000-08:002010-02-01T07:56:33.851-08:00February 1, 2010~ Hermana Daly~continue to melt my way through my second summer in Chile!Hola familia!!!<br />
¿Cómo están todos? This week was great! We found some great new investigadors…a few jovenes and a Columbian couple…I can´t stay away from Columbians now lol :) And we even had a few that came to Sacrament Meeting, which always makes missionaries happy. I also gave a talk with another Elder gringo in our ward and with our ward mission leader….oh which is new and way good!!! He is a returned missionary that just got married and has lots of ánimo and is way funny --- he reminds of Jordan lol. All my cousins have latino clones lol. Anyway, this week we are going to have a ward activity to get everyone a little more excited for missionary work and to give us references, references, and references. I still have the hope of one day where the members here are willing to give references and share with neighbors and friends :) My comp is great…teaching her lots and helping her get comfortable with talking with people and being in the mission. She is way timid and not used to a city-life, but likes it I think lol.This week is Zone Conference too…my last zone conference…tear. So we are going to learn lots and have lots of spiritual ánimo. Bueno, I hope all is well and everyone is enjoying the snow and cold as I continue to melt my way through my second summer in Chile. But I think I prefer the Antofagasta summer over the Arica summer, where I burned way more. But I do prefer the flat planes of Arica over the steep, very steep hills of Antofagasta…got big muscle legs now haha. I´m enjoying my last few moments of the mission and continue to meet great people and love sharing the gospel with them!<br />

This week was very fun meeting my new companion and everything. Her name is Hermana Trávez and she is from a little town in Equador...or maybe a village because she is from a tribe there that supposedly traces back to the Lamanites...pretty cool!! She wears the traditional clothes still, but is starting to use normal blouses some days because everyone asks about her clothes and she doesn´t like to stand out to much. She is really shy, but very nice and has a strong testimony of the gospel.I am very grateful for this chance to show her the ropes of the mission and help her learn and grow. It´s fun being a mamita and motivates me even more to do everything well, which is what i need especially to end the mission well :)So lots of fun!!! <br />
Love you all and have a great week!!!! <br />

¿Están listos? The cambios are.....duh duh duh duh...Hermana Lugo leaves to Copiapo. And Hermana Daly awaits her new hijita!!!! I can´t believe it, but I am going to train my last cambio. A big group of missionaries are coming to the mission and one hermana, who is from Ecuador...so I will be her new mamita :) I´m way excited, but a lil scared at the same time. So I will meet her tomorrow afternoon and see how everything goes. And that is the big news. This past week went really well...we found lots of new investigadors. We just need investigadores progressing who are willing to make changes in their lives and feel the need to follow Christ and His gospel. We continue to work and share with the jovenes who really need spiritual light and guidance. The world is becoming stronger and stronger each day and sucking them even, even those who are members. So help out all those jovenes in your wards, so they see and feel the importance of putting the Gospel first, strengthening their spririts, and being a light to all. I have learn so much from them and am grateful for the correct decisions I´ve made in my life. We must continue to progress spiritually, so that we don´t become weak...one menos activo talked with us about how his spirit had become weak and that he needs to go to a spiritual gym to strengthen it...aka...prayer, scriptures, church, service, and sharing the gospel. Sigamos adelante!!<br />

Cómo están todos? Just got done playing more fútbol...thats all the Elders love here, but we did play with President Urra, which was fun¡¡This week was a bit different because Hermana Lugo had to go to Santiago for a day to do some columbian papers, so i spent the day in Las Rocas, another sector with the other missionary hermanas from the other zone...so it was fun to mix it up a bit. This is the last week of cambios, so everyone is waiting the suprises that Pres. Urra always has for us lol.This week our zone focus was on the jovenes. We tried talking to them more because they are usually more receptive than the adults and abuelitos. We did have success and found lots of new investigadors jovenes. We shared with Kevin, a 15 year old yesterday who was way capo...so we will see if the they pray and read The Book of Mormon. Every day is a surprise. I continue to learn lots and make mental notes of the things I need to be and do in my life to stay strong and have a spiritually strong family.Love you all and keep working hard and playing hard lol. Have a great week¡¡¡¡ <br />

Feliz Año!!! My email comes in the form of pictures from the holidays so enjoy because I spent all my time uploading them instead of writing, which I think is a lot more fun to look at pics and I know Mom enjoys it :) Spent the New Year´s in our house, eating dinner that the neighbors sent us and then building the gingerbread house. We stayed up late till 1:30 pm....wow, quite the missionary party lol...but regretted it the next day up and early for work haha. Well, love you all and have a great week!!!!! <br />

I hope everyone had a fabulous Christmas. It was fun talking to the family and with Aunt Cheri, Uncle John, and Briana! Time is always short to say more, but no worries because I´ll be home in two months...haha -- I´m not trunky :)Fabian´s baptism last Saturday was perfect...all the jovenes (young men) were there to support him and take part in this great step in his life. One of the boys gave a welcome to Young Men´s and his testimony...he was a bit nervous but bore a very strong testimony and it was very special. Hermana Lugo and I also sang, so it all went well and the Spirit was strong. Fabian was happy, shy, but very happy. I know he is going to do great things because he hungers after spiritual knowledge and to do what´s right.We continue working and looking for those who are ready to listen to the Gospel. Keep sharing with everyone and don´t give up!! <br />
Love you all lots and lots!! -Hermana DalyCaranhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17847694873815775947noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1245316467486474072.post-16564070839086733312009-12-22T13:35:00.000-08:002009-12-22T13:35:07.807-08:00December 22, 2009...FELIZ NAVIDAD!Feliz Navidad Familia!<br />
Can you believe it´s almost Christmas!!! Wow! We´ve had some great activities here in Chile. Our ward had a christmas activity where they reinacted the birth of Christ, which was really beautiful...also we some yummy sandwhiches, pan de pascua, and hot chocolate. Then yesterday we had the Hermana´s activity, where all of us hermana missionaries party and eat all day in the mission home haha. We went to the beach and played, had some skits and song, gift exchange, movie, cooking, and lots of eating. It was the best!!! And I got to see all my companions from the MTC that I haven´t seen since last Christmas...everyone is doing well. So lots of fun!Fabian will be receiving the best christmas gift this Saturday when he enters the waters of baptism. We are way excited for him and know he will be a great joven! We continue working with others, and have been working lots with one family menos activo whose kids have all japanese or chinese names. The youngest two kids came to church with us sunday, which was amazing! We are going to have a FHE with them this week and try to activate the mom more. So lots of christmas blessings in the mission.Hope everyone enjoys their Christmas!! I love you all tons! Share the Christmas spirit with all and enjoy the cool weather because I´m cooking here in the desert haha :) <br />

I am in Antofagasta, enjoying the big city and lots of hills. I thought my sector in Iquique was big, but clearly I was wrong lol. It´s gigantic and we are working with two other Elders in the same ward with us. This ward is pretty big and there are lots of menos actives to find and work with…so it´s exciting to have lots to do. Everyone is way nice hear and the people seem more humble and willing to listen to us. It reminds me of the people in my sector in Arica. We are working with a joven, Fabian, who is going to be baptized in a few weeks and is super bueno. We still need to have one more baptism to complete the goal of four before the end of the year, so we are working hard and seeing miracles. We passed by for one woman, Monica, who we had contacted a few days earlier and she was having a rough time and crying. She didn´t feel up to sharing with us, but Hermana Lugo said that we are here to help and that God is knocking her door and showing his love through us. She let us in and it was a great experience of “crying with those who cry, and giving comfort to those in need of comfort.” Christmas truly is the time to serve and help others feel the love of Christ. Lift the head of someone this great season!It is weird to have Hermana Lugo as companion again, but it´s fun. Sometimes we think we are still in Iquique haha. I do miss beautiful Iquique, but here there is a city beauty. Also less sun and more shade so I don´t burn too much and it´s not burning hot like Iquique. Preparing for Christmas fun…we are having a ward activity this Saturday, so it should be fun. Hope everyone is enjoying Christmas fun!!<br />
Love you!!! <br />

Cambios hoy!! I am leaving the beautiful city of Iquique!!! And finally moving more southward to…dadadada…ANTOFAGASTA! I will be in the sector of Origenes with…dadadada…Hermana Lugo again! Hahahaha. Who da thought? I guess we didn´t learn something that we need to learn again together. I still can´t believe, but bueno, it´s going to be more easy knowing what my companion´s like already. So I´m finally going to know how Antofagasta is. I´m a bit sad to leave my Iquique and everyone for Christmas, but hope to find lots of success and people waiting to hear the gospel in Antofagasta.This week un joven, Cristobal, who has been sharing with the missionaries since the beginning of the year told us he wanted to get baptized. Wow!! A baptism fell from heaven, so he is now preparing! And we found Douglas who has moved back to our sector and can get baptized too! Just needs a little more preparing and ánimo and he should be great. So I have high hopes for Bilbao, Iquique Today lots of gringos go home, so we had a Little goodbye lunch and everything. The mission goes by fast. Hay que aprovechar! And i need to learn English again…good luck trying to understand me for Christmas…you guys are going to have to learn spanish haha. Love you all!!! <br />

I´m glad everyone got stuffed up on turkey and stuffing...and that Sean gave a powerful and motivating talk about Christ and His perfect Gospel. This week was a bit of a long one as we walked and walked in the sun without very many lessons...but I did get a awesome blistery burn on my neck. Hna Urra says I´m the first in the mission to have such sensitive skin and that they are thinking of sending me to Antartica haha. But the sun is way strong here and my poor skin is weak haha. But with sacrifice comes blessings. The Bishop and us talked to the members the third hour sunday to wake them up a bit to their responsibility in visiting menos activos and being member missionaries. There have been some challenges, but we are all learning from them and trying to be better, to greet others more warmly, to care for those who don´t come, and to share what many of us continue to keep for ourselves...the Gospel of Jesus Christ. It´s so important, yet we are still afraid to open our mouths and serve with the love of Christ. I was one of those before my mission, but I have learned so much and really have begun to understand my responsibility as a member of the Church of Jesus Christ. If we truly understand the gospel, we would take every opportunity to share it, to help others, to just listen to others, and then give them the hope of the gospel. I hope to remain active in my missionary duties forever. I know it´s hard, but it´s the most important thing. We must always have someone in our mind that we can serve and share the gospel...and if we don´t have one, then we new to make new friends haha (the members always give us that excuse). Okay...the end of my sermon, it just has really hit me this week. So everyone get to the Lord´s work!! :)Love you all and have a fabulous week!!! <br />

Happy Thanksgiving!!! You are all going to have a PAR—TAY!! I´m going to be partying it up in the streets of Iquique sharing the Gospel with all…don´t get too jealous Sean lol :) Just kidding. Enjoy all the yummy food!!This last week we had a conference with Elder Zeballos, a General Authority serving as counselor in the Chile Presidency. It was way good! Learned lots about how we can become better teachers of the gospel, focusing on the doctrine and “why” of the gospel instead of the outer applications stuff. So we are putting it to practice, so that people understand the importance of true doctrine and the importance of the Church of Jesus Christ restored in these days. This week gave us lots of tests and lots of rejections, but we were blessed the last hour of the week with someone who finally let us in. He had a grandma who was a member, so she was the key to letting us in…still helping in the missionary work although she has passed on to the next life! :) So we were happy to finally share with someone!Sunday was also the Primary program…because I´m the only blessed with a piano talent, I was the chosen to help with the Primary so they could sing beautifully, so it was fun to serve them. Learning the piano pays off in the mission…I´m finally getting a hang of playing the hymns haha. Well I love you all!! Enjoy Thanksgiving together and eat lots!!! <br />

Hopefully i got all the tears out i needed to so that you alls can understand me during my homecomming talk. Zone conference was SO good. Elder Kerr from Scotland of some 70 of some quoroum ... came and taught.. it was one of the best.. the next day we had interviews and i had mine with Elder Kerr himself.. i got to ask him some questions and he counseled me about life after the mission... i tried to get him to just prophesy it for me so i wouldnt have to freak out so much... but no go.. <br />
<br />
Bogdan came to church! He was there and he was getting some serious doses of the Spirit.. we had a meeting with him after church and he committed to read, pray, and come to church on a regular basis. He expressed his desire to find out for himself of the truthfulness of the message... we have one last meeting with him tonight. <br />
<br />

Woot woot---Sean comes home!!! So exciting...I can´t believe it...have lots of parties and fun!! Don´t get too trunky this last week Sean :)Well another week of work, more tests, and more blessings. We found lots of new investigadors and had lots of lesson. However, our baptismal dates are a little rocky. So we will see..lots of prayers.We are working and walking tons, that at night when we lay down to sleep...it takes like 2 seconds to fall asleep. The other night there was an almost earthquake, very strong, that everyone talked about. It happened at midnight and everyone asked us how we were when it happened. We were surprised and had no idea...we didn´t feel a thing nor wake up. Everyone didn´t believe us, but we told them in the mission you work hard and then sleep hard. Just goes to show we are working lots and are very very tired at night haha :)<br />
Well, I love you all!! Have a great week!!! -Hermana DalyCaranhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17847694873815775947noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1245316467486474072.post-41388383636476266532009-11-10T06:02:00.001-08:002009-11-10T06:02:51.743-08:00Elder Daly~November 10, 2009....ONE MORE WEEK LEFT IN POLAND!this week was weird. <br />
<br />
i headed back to my roots for the first time since i left elder dutys nest ... elder hughes and i drove down first to katowice and went on exchanges with elder brown and anderton. Elder anderton and i contacted all day and had a blast and a lot of success... set up with a few way cool people, had an interesting encounter with a drunk girl and to top off the day we got let in trakting and taught a way cool couple. <br />
<br />
then we drove the next morning to my wroclaw ... it was so trippy, like driving down flashback avenue. But it reconfirmed what ive told everyone my whole mission.. wroclaw is far and away my favorite city in poland, and probably the best in the universe ... i went with elder brewster and it was another day of contacting but way miraculous...at one point we were ladder contacting and talking to different people at the same time... i finished my conversation and headed to pass him by and talk to the next person until i recognized the woman he was talking to! her name is krystyna and i vaguely recalled her face from the one meeting elder duty and i had with her almost 2 years ago.. she had a baptisimal date when elder duty and i entered the area but was having concerns and moved to the states shortly after we met her and we lost contact completely. Now she has just recently moved back to Poland and she set up with us and is excited to meet with missionaries again! just another strength to my firm conviction that God leads and guides us and His work. <br />
<br />
elder stohel and i met with bogdan last night... our member flaked us unfortunately but the lesson was still great. We think he's received the answer to get baptized but he still needs a llittle time to think things over and pray.. friday is our next meeting so pray for him :-) <br />
<br />
Well the whole mission missionaries come and leave and it doesnt really seem like the day will ever come but now with one full week of work left im starting to freak out a little bit, ...alright a lot a bit... i feel bad for my companion ive been a emotional mess of mood swings lately. but thank you family for your support and love for the past couple years... and thank you even more for the previous 19 years of preparation its made all the difference out here for me....as you all know too well i dont usually like to get too spiritual or emotional in these emails so i hope that sufficeth for now.. i love you guys <br />
