Hey y'all! How is everything going??? Yeah we had a great 4th of July here in Chile.. believe it or not they don't celebrate the 4th of July... haha I mean what holiday is more important than the Independence day of The United States of America?? It was a good one though, we had a zone wide fast because we are trying to reach the goal of 17 baptisms this month. That would be a record if we reach it. So were all really excited for this! We made some Delicious cookies for the 4th of July and ate them on the 5th. the life of a missionary. It was fun, we did anther zone attack on the 4th, and so all of the gringos were singing all the American pride songs in the streets of Chile. There is nothing better than spreading the American spirit! We are teaching 2 investigator named Jorge Diaz.. they have NO relation at all but are absolutely fantastic! One of them has read more than half the book of mormon in the past month. and the other said to us the other day that he will do whatever it takes for him to be able to take his family to the temple and get sealed to his family. When Elder Autelli and I heard this we kinda freaked out a little bit because we were so excited for him. I have seen some terrible husbands here in my mission, some who would rather have their booze than provide food for his family, some who treat their wife's like the dirt of the earth. But then you see these type of people who put their wife's, family's and their eternity before the things of this world and there is no greater worth than these things. I don't know, Just a thought, I'm determined not to be a tool of a husband that's for sure. Well I hope you all have a good week and are all enjoying your summer! Love you.
Elder Howard
