It´s good to hear that you are staying busy with the work. I can´t wait to be able to enter that Temple with you and mom and the rest of the family. … I had an interesting realization talking to a less active lady about our lunch this Tuesday over the phone. We now can´t enter the houses and be alone with Sisters of the church or any other female. We have to have a responsible adult with us. I listened as she explained how stupid that rule was. It hit me, no wonder this sister is less active. Maybe it is a hard rule and it may offend some sisters, but it is given from the leaders of the Church. She obviously can´t see all the good that is coming from this new rule and don´t blame her but just thought it interesting. When the prophet tells us to pay off our house or get a food storage or pack an emergency pack, we have two options,,,,do it or not. I like the saying the way we do anything is the way we do everything. This was just a little observation I made and felt like you when I made it. I just wanted to share with you what I’m learning. I really enjoy being a missionary and especially teaching the Gospel with the Spirit. There is nothing that helps me feel more peaceful and filled than teaching the Gospel to these wonderful Chileans. I wish I could have been there for the Book of Mormon class. I’m going to need an overview in some future day. I´ll be praying for Bec. That is pretty cool that she has two 5A schools fighting for her (smile). In my dreams! Thank you for writing me. I sure love reading your letters. Did you ever get to talk to Sam about working? He sent me an email last week, but didn´t say anything about work. I love you Dad and will be praying for you. Please keep us and our investigators in your prayers. Elder Whitney and I have been here for a few months a piece, but with our other companions. Now they put us together and also all the people that we both have and have half the time to do it all. We need a blessing of the Spirit to be with us in our teaching and with the investigators. We have a few that are preparing for baptism here soon, but need a confirmation that what we are teaching is true.
Oh, Bishop Gonzalez asked me to speak in church next week. This will be my first talk in Spanish. It is 15 minutes and on whatever I choose from Predicad Mi Evengelio. I have thought that I would give it on "Receiving Revelation through prayer, scriptures and church attendance" Pray for me. I still struggle with the language to share stories and experiences. I love you Dad and will be praying for you. Love you son, Elder Tilley
