Called to Serve - Osorno, Chile

Elder Keenan Robertson is serving in the Osorno Chile Mission as a full time missionary for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. Elder Robertson left on July 16, 2013 and will return sometime around July of 2015. Missionaries have a limited time to respond to all the E-mails and letters they receive so we will include here some of his letters home so that friends and family can keep up to date on how things are going for him and his ministry among the wonderful people of Chile.

June 29, 2015 Last Email From The Mission Field

This week was really good.  I tried working my hardest and it went really well.  We had an excellent week.  It went by really fast.  Subway would be really good for lunch and I think for dinner I want stuffed potatoes! :)  That's cool Bro. Farley said to talk to him when I get back; maybe we could go over there right away on Friday.  I would like to work as soon as I can. 

I don't really know anything about the trip home, they don´t tell us until the last day.  I think I will have time to go to the Temple Thursday in Santiago so that should be cool.  Wednesday I will be in the mission home all day.  I will spend the night in a hotel and then Thursday sometime in the morning I will go to Santiago.  I think my plane leaves Santiago sometime at night.  It should be a good trip.

Maria Jose is really good it was the birthday of her son Saturday.  She will get baptized here soon.  She wants to wait a little bit which is fine.  She is super cool.  It has been cool to be here in Volcan.  The branch is really awesome.  Recently they change the branch president and he is awesome.  He is making lots of changes for the better.  This place is going to grow a lot.  The cambios should be pretty crazy!  Haha, I'm kinda glad I'm leaving. They are juntándose los dos zonas (combining the two zones).  I don´t know how to say that in English.  Villarrica and Los Lagos is going to be one huge zone!!!!  Well, I don´t know what else to tell you, haha, I´ll show you all the pics this week when I get home! :)  I'm kinda excited for my bed!

I'm really tired!  Haha.  It will be weird going home.  It still really hasn't hit me that I'm going home in a couple days!  It will be wierd and a really long trip.

Love you tons!  See you soon

I thought it would be appropriate if I sent two scriptures home to you guys.

2 Timothy 4:7
"I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith."


1 Corinthians 13:11
"When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things."


I like to think I've changed!  Haha, but I'm just kidding about the second scripture I'm still a kid! :)
