I am a Missionary

I am so sorry it has taken me so long to post about what I am doing now. Our team is in Concepcion until this comming Monday and then we will be going to Temuco or Casma. Sorry I dont remember right now which comes first. So what have I been doing this last month? I have been improving my spanish and can understand much more, but still having some trouble with speaking. I am learning that some sounds in spanish we dont have in english. Our team has been visiting many people. I have also been counseling as well. God has been so faithfull to me in giving me opportunitys to share in all different ways. This last week I took care of a little baby boy as everyone else talked after lunch. I sang to him songs from the bible, prayed blessings over his life, feed him, put him to sleep and changed his diaper. Seems simple but I realize that it is just as important as washing dishes or having a profound conversation. God has been placing many kids and young teens in my life to spend time with these last three days. I am so at home here in Chile. Some of you may be making trips here to visit me later in life. I love you all and wish I had more time to write more specifically to each of you. God bless!!!!
