Another day, another dollar…Well, I think that's how the saying goes, but here in Chile I've come to discover it’s, "Another day, another dog." There are dogs EVERYWHERE! And this week during the confirmation of Jesuan, a dog walked right into the Sacrament Meeting and was just strolling around for a good 5 minutes until a member went over picked it up, and carried it out (keep in mind this thing has been living on the streets since day 1 and has never been bathed in it's life...as the nurse of the mission likes to say, "What did you expect, we're in Chile now." ).
I don't have a ton of time to write, but a fun fact this week was when I was in the taxi some little kid was asking me if I put Mayonnaise on my face so that my skin was lighter, of course I told him yes, how else could I get the creamy white skin that I have?
Scripture: Mosiah 26:30-31… It doesn't matter if they don't ask for forgiveness, forgive them anyway. I'm here to tell you that forgiveness has power and when we forgive we have the opportunity to see how much our Lord and Savior loves us to forgive us every time we make mistakes and fall short. His love and forgiveness is real and lasting, and ours should be too.

The baby shower we had for Monica! She could have the baby any day now! Also, can I just say I look like a stinking giant compared to all these little hermanitas! But I do love the support of the hermanas in the ward!
Love you all,
Hermana McKenna
PS. I love you Mother Dear! I hope you had a great Mother's Day! Thank you sooooooooooo much for your love and support!
