Chance's Email 11/24/08

hey famsky
thanks a million for such great letters. so ya i'm short on time cause i gotta chat chat with mom and dad but yesterday we had a baptism! it was the first one without my trainer which was more or less a milestone for me. it showed me that i can do this without my trainer but not without the Lord. it was awesome. it was a sister of the converts of our last baptism. she was a mess, in bed all day everday and was just an evil stepsister to her sister and mom. she controlled them and commanded them to bring her breakfast and wash the dishes and so on. she has pulled a 180. although she still has some strong characteristics she is outside everyday with her mom and sister and they are so united now and yesterday after the baptism in the afternoon she went to a young single adult activity. it was so cool and there is nothing like watching someones life change. it's such a priveledge to be here. london i cant believe your time is almost up. when you get home i will get to talk to you guys at christmas, that will be killer. ya so i dont know the details but i know that we only have like 40 min to talk and that's been the rule for a long time i guess so let's treasure these chats while we can. ok mom so go ahead and send that memory card asap so i can make more videos, cause right now i've got the little memory cards and they hold nothing. they hold tons of pics but like one vid.

about spanish sleeping, i'm ok. it was funny and i always come outta the phase. i didn't have any this week so i'm good. as for dina and raul. they are awesome! they came to church this week and loved it and we are trying to set up a marriage date for them so they can get baptized. it's awesome but we still need a miracle so keep praying for them and also miriam. yesterday were transfers and nothing happened with us, so i've got another 6 with elder olsen but i'm stoked. i know it's gonna be awesome and i didn't really want to have transfers. eric left the island and my zone leader went there. dad each week we have zone class and district class and i always get way pumped and learn a ton. we also have divisions each week and i lean so much from the other elders it's amazing. one of my friends left today for his home in the south of chile, he is awesome. wow that's scary about grandpa. i hope he will be ok. take advantage of the time you have with him while you can. we're so blessed that we have the amazing plan of salvation. it's such a blessing and it's the truth.

ok mom i have a request. could you send me the foto of my first baptism. it was a young girl. we are just printing all the pictures of the baptisms here and putting them in the church ad i don't have it. to help you out it's when i was skinny. i sure did get your package and it was amazing! i was freakin out. i took a little video so hopefully you'll like it. ok well i love you guys so much and sorry i'm so short on time. i love you
elder peterson
