Gigi to the Rescue

NOTE from Mom:  This week I had to tell Daylon that his wonderful great-grandma, Gigi, who he was close to, had passed away. I told him that if he noticed the work had been going better the last few days, it would be because she had arrived in the mission field to assist him. He replied:
 
As a matter of fact, every person we contacted this week is now investigating the Church! And now we all know why :´)

Last week was a good week for mail :) I got a package from Ciny, Sean, and family, another package from Tricia (she´ll be glad to know that finally came :) ), and letters from the following wonderful people: Cris/Fred family, Jenny (18 Sept and 18 July) and from Sis Larsen (who mentioned how the Elders didn´t like her cooking...haha)

Funny story about maaaaaiiiilllll tiiiiiiiiiime (sorry, Blues Clues moments...). Whenever my DL opens the package of letters, there´s usually about 5 or 6. At least 3 or 4 are always mine :) And whenever there´s a few packages, I can usually count on my awesome family to have sent something :) All the junk food you send really helps me spend my money on healthier food because I already have the good stuff from you hahaha

Also, a suggestion for all. Here, salads are really different and, at first, I didn´t like it, but now I plan on only eating Chilean salads after the mission. It´s pretty simple: Lettuce, oil, salt, and lemon juice. I have no idea what the proportions are, but you can have fun experimenting :)

WHAT?? Dad missed one of Trevin´s games??? Yeah. Definitely praying hard for him now!! (from Mom: he was sick. Reeaaally sick... he doesn't miss those games without a major reason!)

As missionaries we probably won´t get the Conference Ensign until the end of Novermber/December :P And seeing as we don´t really spend time with the members, I haven´t heard any phrases going around. But that was definitely one of my favorites :) (from Mom: I told Daylon the quote from conference that is really getting popular here is "Doubt your doubts before you doubt your faith."

(from Mom: this is regarding the new temple video) I´ve heard there´s a new video, but as of September it wasn´t in Santiago. I heard they´re sending it with the new Temple Presidents, but I don´t know how credible that info is...I seriously miss going to the Temple!!

Lots of love,
- Elder Daylon Crider
Awesome letter-sending girlfriend!!!

So pretty here
