Hello Family and Friends!

Hola familia!!! This week went by extremely fast, I am so jealous that I was not there to see my sister get married.. Yea sweet for you guys, sucky for me.. lol.  But yes I'm doing really good here in Longavi we had cambios today and nothing changed I am still here with my comp And I am really happy I am. All of our investigators died. In mission terms as if the have died when it comes to progressing. We did find a new family yesterday, I'm stoked about them, the dad loved the restoration. My comps name is Elder Brian Andrez Sanches. I am doing good here, it has still been a big change with the whole training thing. But we are doing good. The branch is doing good, still small but the love is getting better.So I am way excited for the next six weeks, I'm going to work the best I have my entire mission. I just enjoy coming to the house at night and being exhausted. Knowing that God is pleased with my service here. I am truly giving my whole life it feels great. My comp is having trouble giving things up, but hey it happens to to all of us. We don't have a mission conference for 7 weeks but we should have mail here in Linares from the office next Tuesday. I just need to figure out how I can work harder and more efficient. Jared!!! what did you do to your knee, your going to look like Megatron with a giant leg brace!!! haha so that means no driving what are you going to do! I have been doing exercises when  I count blessings that I have received or am receiving from God. Also a list of all the truths I know, and how or why I know that they are true. I Love you all, so much. I love Chile right now, I love the mission. Don't worry about me..Emily are you still doing bike rides? I got to work on my diet or something I work out and I'm gaining weight!! tty next week family!


Love Elder Matthew James Ward

HEY!!!

Hey family I'm doing great, we got home really late, we had a activity as a zone up in the mountains. This week went by really fast, and I'm learning a lot, I wrote Jared and Jessica and I really don't have anymore time to write I need to get out to work right now. But I got money again!! so I'm doing a lot better and I absolutely loved conference, the whole mission is making fun of me because after the first talk by Uchtdorf everyone was like crap now we got to listen to what Elder Wards been saying for the last year.. lol I love you all and I promise to write more next week....  (He has been studying and gave a Zone lesson on the Plan of Salvation)


Love Elder Ward

Another fast week, and another week of rain!‏

Hey family how is everyone! thanks for all of the emails! Its always nice to get emails. So Emily and Jared, How is the bike riding going? still doing it? And I don't even know who Jared is anymore if he is alive or not.. shoot its been over a month since he wrote me.  So this email will be quick, But I am doing great, my comp has had me on a work out plan. he is destroying me lol.. we got ourselves weighed at a pharmacy today so its legit. I weigh 184 pounds. So I'm doing really good,  just got to get a six pack back! lol yeah!! I feel like the next few weeks are going to fly by, seeing the last 3 did. Its even hard to find time to do things on pday-- So we have the work booming! We have 26 investigators ... only 3 came to church but we are going to change that soon. For dad to know last week we had 6 people at church and this week we had 27 but we should have at least 2 baptisms at the end of next month! but we have a possible 7! I am continually learning alot and I cant believe that conference is this week!! That's like vacation with cake in the mission! I'm so exited. We should have an investigator there too! If you guys could, in my next package I would love some books, nice ones that are small. Like my Jesus the Christ and the Teachings of the prophet Joseph Smith that I had. They are really small and are printed on rice paper. But I will talk more about that with dad next week. I miss you all, I love you all, and I am doing absolutely great!!! don't worry about me... but letters would be nice! We get letters now every three weeks. I will be writing a bunch soon!

Small Post

Hey family thanks for all the emails this week, including all of the pictures. It is always nice, I will not be sending a very long email this week because I would enjoy to study on mormon.org and the lds website. As missionaries we have very little to study from besides the scriptures.But I love you all and I am doing well. My new comp is from several places in the USA but was raised in Columbia. He has a great desire to work. I am enjoying the work we are working really hard and we are having success too. We are working hard, haha elder Castillo got sent to Hualqui to be comps with Elder Matney. Next week I promise I will write more I am just really enjoying being able to study right now. LOVE ME

Training? What... and Baptisms!‏

Hello family, This week was crazy. I have had many spiritual experiences that have strengthened my testimony about this gospel. I studied differently this week and allowed the lord to take over. This week seemed to be the plan of salvation as the grand subject. People with questions, doubts and even people coming up to me to tell me something was false about the plan of salvation. I dont Understand why someone would try, it is the most doctinal supported, and scriptual supported subject. Including visions by ancient and modern day prophets. And the promise in Doctrine and Covenants 76 that we too can see the celestial glories. i say glories because yes there is more than one. I have learned alot this week especially about learning from god, allowing my own eyes to be spiritually opened to not only read but understand. And its amazing how much we can learn by observing the life around us. All things point and teach of god. Look for them, and pray to god to have the understanding to find and understand the answers. There is nothing anyone can ever say or show me to change my testimony. But what is a testimony, its a spiritual witness from the holy ghost on a gospel subject. So it is not somethin that we can lose, or something that can be taken away. We can not lose a testimony either, but our heart can be hardened and our guilt can over power our true faith in Jesus Christ. I have seen many people including returned missionaries here in chile who are members of other churches. And always it can be traced back to a sin, and a lack of faith. they still have testimonies but lacked the faith in Christ to overcome a trial. Or those who never recieved a spirtiual witness. This is the larger group. They did not recieve a witness and will not untill they become humble and do other things. But it all, All an be traced back to Faith in Jesus Christ. There is a reason why its the First principle of the gospel. This week the Hermanas baked me a cake it was really really good. The week went by really fast to be honest. We had a baptism this sunday, It was fantastic. Afterwards she thanked me for helping her find the truth and to recieve her own TESTIMONY. she has had her own spirtitual experiences about the book of mormon, Joseph Smith and more. I have come to realize why people have doubts or even attack the teachings of the Church of Jesus Christ Of latter Day Saints. And it is misunderstanding. simple as that. So we got a phone call this morning saying that I am going to be a trainer, Weird because I have not even been a senior comp yet. and their are plenty of older more experienced elders that have not trained. But hey we will see how it goes. So i take a bus ride in the morning to Concepcion to get him. Mom i am fine, you worry about things at home, I am in the Hands of the Lord and you know that. A mission would not be possible if it was not so. Still no knews about landons Mission call? well i hope all is well in vegas, and i hope that your not all melting. To end my email this week, i would like to give a very simple yet powerful testimony.

That I know this church is true, its teachings, and we have a prophet to guide us. And it has been made manifest unto me by the power of god. And I can never deny it.

I love you, Elder Matthew James Ward

I'm an old fart!

So mom, dad, and family, I lost my umbrella.. And I have no money to purchase a new one so this last 3 days I have walked in the rain.. my scriptures are in a plastic bag and my whole body drenched. I am still here with Edler Castillo in Longavi with all the pigs and chickens.. So thanks for all the birthday emails! It was extremely nice to sign on my email and to have so many emails, even from people I rarely hear from. That's good Justin got his call!! I'm excited to hear about Landon I really want him to come here to Chile, in this mission lol.. its possible.. lol So this is the last week of the cambios here so next week its possible I might get a new companion! So this week we had alot of opposition. However you spell it. Lets just start with anti-Mormon folletos here in Longavi.. But don't you worry dad I destroyed those filthy lies and fibs about the Book of Mormon. We only lost one of our investigators. This week we went to our favorite house the family of
Katia and the husband is just having ridiculous questions very difficult and crazy questions. But I called him out with the scriptures about the intent of his questions. Then I answered them and told him he will never know the truth and will never receive answers if he doesn't soften his heart and read the Book of Mormon, which he won't do. I shared with katia last week the talk by Jeffery R. Holland about the Book of Mormon and told her that if anyone ever gives her crap about the church to slap them in the face with the Book of Mormon. (Ha Ha) This week she needed another new Book of Mormon because at work again 5 people were attacking her about her choice to be baptized in the the Mormon cult... bull crap. But she threw at them the Book of Mormon (to read) and didn't let it phase her. We should be baptizing them this Sunday!!! So I'm doing good family, today for my birthday we played volleyball.. well few of us did because it was raining hard. But me and my new buddies fresh from the MTC still played with me.. they are in the pic with me. The lord is shaping me into something, I don't know what, but I think it has alot to do with patience and love lol.. Last night I played bombero, or fireman, the house next door caught on fire so I was up there as people would hand me the buckets of water.. it was fun.. the mission is full of experiences. Don't worry about me family I'm doing fine. Just ready for a new companion , and I'm ready for spring... why won't it come lol.. Love me...

I can see clearly now that the rain is gone!

Hey family whats up!! So dad and mom thanks for the emails, its nice to know that 2 members of my family have enough time to email me. lol That's hilarious about dad and the dogs lol I can see him trying to take off his BOOTS and the dogs messing with him and then sleeping with him on the couch. That's crazy that so many people are working on their mission papers and then on top of that how many young men from our ward are already out in the mission. Isn't Regan almost coming home!? holy jazz.. Well hey family this week was pretty much the same except that it only rained once!!!! Its almost spring here I'm so excited to start wearing only a camisa blanca again and start feeling like a real missionary again. So I have not been taking alot of pictures because I am tired of not having pictures of baptisms! But the 5th of September we should have two!!! I am working extremely hard for it. We visited her last night and she had 4 friends over, all with pages of questions about life, the scriptures and church. All her friends are Catolica and she told them that we have all the answers. It was a very fun hour and a half lol.. But its true this church is the true church of God. So we finally have investigators here in Longavi. The work is progressing and I am learning more than I ever thought I could. I wont lie I'm really ready for a gringo companion lol or at least some one who can do some of the work too.. lol So I would like mom to know that I flossed every day this week! and I worked out. Now that its not to cold I can do stuff, before it was to cold to ----.(pass gas) I left Katia our golden investigator that we contacted in the rain a copy of the Liahona the general conference one and she is going to read the talk about the Book of Mormon by Jeffery R. Holland lol.. she told me she is going to read them all. lol Life is good, the Church is true and I love my family and friends. Peace out!!!

Hey family, I will start by answering some of the questions that mom and dad asked. I still have not received my credit card, and yes dad there is a baptismal font here in Longavi. That's really funny about Kayman and Jared with different kinds of music. Don't worry Kayman I would have listened to country music with you, Jared just doesn't like it because he hasn't met the right girl yet... lol.. get on it Jared. So August is weird here in this part of Chile, it rains one day and its sunny the next. It only rained 3 times this week it is getting a lot better. So this week I'm still a missionary lol.. And don't worry I'm not homesick. Its just really hard when you always have to do everything, I teach the lessons, I resolve doubts, I do everything that's all I'm going to say. I just can't wait to get a companion that is like a friend. I have never had a hard time with getting long with someone or being patient for a long time, then I came on a mission. lol.. I'm so excited about Landon!!!! He better email me himself about it maybe a video even or at least a foto. I am extremely excited for him. I love that kid, I have never spent more time playing video games with someone else. So we have a family we are teaching and this week the mom was like Elder Ward I have something to tell you. I was like shoot, because the last week we went over the Word of Wisdom. She was like Elder, I need a new Book of Mormon. At work they tried to get me to drink cafe, (coffee) then they made fun of me, so I shoved the Book of Mormon at them and told them to read it and try to deny it. Yes I gave her a new Book of Mormon lol, I was extremely happy for her, she is ready for baptism she just is lacking assistance because she is still working on getting Sunday morning off. But she is converted its amazing how powerful the Book of Mormon is. So I got my package this week, I wrote a little thing in the Latin Book of Mormon (this is what he asked for his birthday) for Elder Castillo he loved it. Now I just hopes he reads it. I m doing good family, I'm loving a lot of things down here. I got to start working out.....


Love Elder Ward

Where To start...

So to start out this email, No I have still not received any mail! But hey we have a training Wed so maybe I will get some mail then! Thanks for all the emails I got this week, I'm sorry I'm going to be a little lazy today and not reply back to all of them. And mom, do not worry, we don't use a heater... We just freeze at night lol. but hey one more month! Its starting to warm up, I'm really jealous of the Vegas weather, it doesn't thunder here, or lightning. You just cant go anywhere better than Las Vegas. So this week, to start off we had a mini cambio Tuesday that was really fun because it was with Elder Garey. Its a little lame that he only has a little more than 4 months left. I will have to find a new mission buddy. lol. The next day we did contacts all day, and I was testifying to this family outside of the bus stop right, and everyone starts laughing. I look down and there is a dog peeing on my leg. Sweeeeet huh? But don't worry yourself I didn't let it affect me and kept working all day. The next day we chopped more wood as a service project, and I bought gloves! They are not very comfortable though. If I look fat in the picture its because I'm back up to 80 kilos. And its not all muscle like before :( oh well, I guess I will have to start working out in the morning again. Later that day we had a lesson with one of our investigators. After the opening prayer she starts crying and telling us something. I couldn't understand her at all. I looked at my comp and he looked at me. She stoped talking and I looked at my comp hoping he would share something. And he just looked at me, I grabbed my scriptures and prayed. I opened my scriptures and shared, she talked more and cried more. My comp said nothing. The spirit guided me to another scripture and I shared my testimony and then she cried more and told us more. Then the spirit told me to share two scriptures and share about the beauty of repentance. She thanked us and we left with a prayer. She was happy when we left and we made goals with her. But remember how I said I didn't understand a thing? Yeah the whole lesson I didn't understand a thing she said to me until we starting making goals. After the lesson my comp asked me how I knew what to say, and how what I shared was exactly what she needed. I told him I didn't understand a dang thing. He didn't believe me at first. But another testimony to me, that the guidance of the holy ghost is real. Only that we must learn to recognize it and be worthy of the blessings. Throughout this week I thought alot about temptation. And how I don't remember before this life, But Satan and his followers do. We had another really good lesson with the family we are teaching. She had a huge doubt about the priesthood only being held by men, but don't worry, the Proclamation to the World about the family took care of that real easy. lol We also taught them the Word of Wisdom and they are dropping everything! Because they feel so strongly Jose Smith was a prophet and about the Libro de Mormon. Awesome right? So this week I got a little frustrated because I always have to answer the questions always. Why cant my comp help me out sometime. My zone leader talked with me and asked me how i haven't gone home yet, i asked him... What? lol he was like dude you have had 2 of the hardest companions in the whole mission. Well someone has to help them, and be strong enough not to fall doing it. Its tough, almost 10 months of always having to be the strong one. why... I'm praying that it will change with my next comp. This week I had a really rough day. I was studying and like a lot of times studying I get really into it. And sometimes I feel like I'm studying in my front room, or in the car like I did before the mission and forget that I'm in Chile. I learned something new and I jumped up and ran out of the room because I had the urge to share it with dad. To realize that I was 9000 kilometers away in Chile. It hit me hard, after I read a talk MAN DOWN by Henry B Eyring, some of my friends came to mind. I cried, it was hard. And my comp didn't even ask me if I was OK. But hey we are strengthened by everything right? I'm still learning and helping investigators. We should be baptizing this family in the next 3 weeks. I'm enjoying the mission. I love you all, and I hope all is well.

Hola Family

Hey family whats going on, so I'm still here in the rest stop in the middle of nowhere with a pretty boy de peru. lol six more weeks lol we should have a baptism this month coming up though so its all worth it. Its not all about baptisms. I learned that a lot this last 6 weeks here in Longavi, I am serving in meaningful ways. If it means helping my companion find his testimony and teach him correct doctrine, or listening to people for hours about there trials and afflictions. I don't know, but I am serving. I am content with knowing that when I am serving them I am serving my God. This last week went by really fast, I learned a lot and hope that me and my comp can continue to build a relationship. Slowly we are. I want to thank everyone for the emails that I received this week, I was very happy to have so many great emails. bro Jared, !esta o no! I happened to read D & C 121-3 this week lol I think its the Lord speaking to me. lol So this week we had some really intense lessons this week, my comp is mad at me because I'm not by the book on the lessons and I take over, he says. If the spirit tells me something, I'm going to do it. If someone needs to be taught something for their spiritual progression I'm going to take the time to teach it. If someone just needs us to listen, we listen. Holy jazz, talk about rain this week, we had a day that it rained big time all day. Just to make our day better every appointment fell lol members too, we tried everything. Contacts all, all day 10 hours of contacts. A first for me in my life lol oh and how I hope its the last lol. and to add to it we got rejected all day but hey, im serving lol right. I hope you guys are receiving blessings for this! lol So this week I started a list, every question and the answer in the Book of Mormon. So far I have 56 questions about life or the gospel of Jesus Cristo and the answers in the Book of Mormon, its absolutely amazing! Definitely a true book, plus I love to watch people ask a tough question and see their reaction when I take them to the index and show them how to find the answer-then the answer. It is amazing. lol I didn't take any fotos this week sorry, out of batteries and I have about 4 dollars to live off of until next Monday and 3 dollars are going to fast offering. Not buying batteries lol.. Maybe I can find some in my meletas. Well I'm doing good family and friends, the gospel is true.

Grandpa would be proud!

Hello family, would like to start out this email saying its going to be alittle different than last weeks. I had alot of experiences this week but they were very sad, and very hard to go through. I learned alot this week. And I still have not received a fancy American bank card that could really help me out right now lol. We had service this week to chop some wood, and when we got there I was given a dull axe and when I asked where was the wood, the woman pointed to a tree. I had to do all the work myself. My gloves ripped and my hand got a nice cut, but don't worry I pulled a Grandpa Olds, a napkin and tape and went to work! Dont worry mom my hand is fine. This week we did contacts in the market. A lot of people really didn't like me because the market is about a kilometer long and once your in it its hard to get out unless its on the other side. We set up in the middle and as my comp manned the table I went out and stopped the traffic. I learned alot this week, but alot of things I don't want to write. Just people experience so much pain and sorrow. I miss paying tything. I miss time..... I never have time.... I don't know this is the first time I really don't feel like writing I'm sorry. I'm fine though so don't worry, just experiencing a lot. I would like a picture of our new dog lol..

Love Elder Ward

Experiences, there is no other way to title this email.‏

So this week it rained and the wind blew like I never knew it could. Me and my comp we had a lot of talks this week, especially about doctrine. I refuse to teach false doctrine he got a little upset at me that I was correcting him but it needed to be done. That was an experience. We just had so many good lessons this week and so many heartbreaks. I didn't know it was possible to feel so different so many times in one day. I will only give two experiences this wee. The first, we are at investigators home.. Or a medio agua, the shack that the government gave to those who lost their homes in the terremoto. We are teaching a man and woman who have two very young daughters they are not married. The dad left for something for about 15 min the woman broke down in tears about how hard her life was all of her family has died. She is alone and lives with a man who she doesn't love, only because she cant leave him because she has no work, no home, no family. But she wants to get baptized but refuses to marry this man. Before we can reply he returns, My comp, being the great senior comp he is, looked at me and expected me to know what to say. I shared about the atonement and then set an appointment with the branch president this Sunday to speak with her personally. Because I do not have the keys or the calling to give counsel like that. But we are good now. But how sad was the experience we are the only people she trusts. Then the same day we ran into a woman named Katia we contacted her about 3 weeks ago. She didn't want a thing to do with us, but not to feel bad she has nothing against us. I said don't worry about it, or No se precupe, don't worry yourself lol your not rejecting us, as representantes de Jesu Cristo your rejecting him. She came up to us this day and told us to come share with her family because she couldn't stop thinking that she might have rejected Jesus Cristo. We go into her home and she has a family of 9 all waiting to share with us. They pricked and questioned and doubted everything we taught. I felt the spirit so strong during the lesson I never didn't know what to say, my comp might of been a little upset because I did all the talking. By the end of it they told me I had convinced them, and like any missionary knows it was the spirit so I told them that, I asked them how they felt right now, they said calm and warm (BAM in your face I wanted to say) but I taught them that what they were feeling was the spirit bearing record that what we taught was true. At the end of the lesson they said things I will never forget. One was, in the last ten years living in Longavi, Katia told us she sees missionaries almost every week but until us none of them had ever talked to her. Then her mother who was there also asked, how are you always so happy? Yesterday I saw you being hugged by a drunk man and made fun of by all his drunk friends, and you just took it, happily too. It was a great lesson, great experience. The only bad thing we can only teach them once a week, every Saturday because they all work. and want to be taught together. another thing, we taught them the godhead, they have been Catolica their whole lives and didn't even know who God is. .. Sometimes we do not know who is watching, and how we react may influence someone else in their life. I also learned how important study is, when we obtain the word and treasure it. The Holy Ghost will always bring it back to our memory when it is needed. He will guide us. I know its true. I'm doing fine so family don't worry about me. I'm still being tried with my patience and my love lol but I am learning every day. I sent letters home today too. I hope Emily is at least getting a cool dog lol.. Jared email me bum face. I love you all and I hope you are all showing each other that you love them. And next time that you are eating In-an- Out or something amazingly good, just take a second to remember that Matthew is eating beans.. Love your son and brother,

Rain, Rain

Hello family how was the great fourth of July! well for me I walked around all day.. in wind and rain, the bum part of my rain pants broke so I had a nice wet bum all day... lol So this week was good, me and my comp are really making progress with some of the people we found this week we found two jovens, both sixteen and they are cousins. They came to church too! We have taught them 3 times and one is very interested in the the priesthood, which is good since there are no young men in the branch. So maybe that will change soon. We had another Zone conference with the new President and his wife, I really like them. Just things are changing alot, like we only have interviews and conferences every 12 weeks! I also got my scripture cases for my small English scriptures, man they are legit! lol I have been learning alot in this new area, especially because I have alot of responsibility in the branch. To answer dads other question, there are 2 elders in Longavi, 4 elders in Linares and 4 sister missionaries in Linares, and that's our district. Our zone is with the missionaries in Parral. Longavi is going to take a different type of work, Love and Patience.. And that is what I'm learning right now.. And I am trying very hard to apply the things that I am learning. I love you all!!!!!!!! PS. I MISS ENGLISH

MOM
I'm doing good I just sleep with out a pillow lol.. and the new president changed a lot we have conferences every 12 weeks now! lol and same with interviews. But he is going to come around and train us personally alot. Hey its what elder packer instructed him to do so I'm for it lol.. so I dont know my mail situation. I just really want some american money lol we have lunch 4 times a week but its portions for a little girl.. and yes we do alot of service but I dont need anything. we should be having a baptism in two weeks but we still have alot of work to do. I love you mom!

Hello family how is everything! Here in Chile things are doing good, conference was very good, I got to see alot of people from the MTC! Like Elder Hathaway! I also saw Elder Hafen who is one of my old friends from Vegas! He just came to the mission lol the other kid is Elder Stermetz from Arizona he is fresh from the MTC lol he thinks I'm a stud with Spanish we talk alot on pdays because we are exactly alike. I like girls, he likes girls. I like halo and call of duty, he does too. I love volleyball, he does too! I finally have someone to play with! He is tight, and I'm tight lol I worked my butt off this week like I told dad in his email, I lead the music, blessed the sacrament and gave a talk while taking care of our investigators. lol Alot of work is needed here in Longavi, my comp is content.. and doesn't push himself. he hit a year this week and died with it lol. Im really enjoying the mission right now, even with another comp from Peru. I just swear they are from a different planet lol... .. we played soccer today with a bunch of Chileans today I sprained a kids ankle. Its his fault, he ran at me full speed with the ball and thought I was going to move. no bro, I'm twice your size.. maybe next time he will think lol.... I'm slowly getting better at soccer its still really hard. Well I'm doing good, I'm learning alot and working hard. Had alot of good experiences this week..
