Week 10

This week was pretty awesome, and fast. We taught a lot more lessons than we usually do, and found 6 new investigators! We haven't seen pedro since the incident last sunday, but we will probably find him this week. We had tramites this week, pretty intresting. mostly we waited for about five hours. Had a lesson with these invetigators, Abel y Juliana in tongui, they are usually gone, but we finally caught them! Taught a lesson and after they were like, ¨come back and eat dinner with us, we'll cook salmon for you guys¨. This is super awesome cause I am always hungry here, and also salmon is super expensive. I am excited, and ready. Had intercambios this week with the Dl, that was.. different. He's a chileno that doesn't know english, but always tries to speak it. I don't understand his english,and he doesn't understand my casellano. We got along alright. We had a lesson with a investigator, who happens to be a  jehovah witness, and she said that she would only read the bom if she could find a prophecy, without our help, about it in the bible. A little difficult, but my comp is super excited about her. We took the younger chancans, jack y frank with us proselyting one day, jack is 13 and frank is 12. This day was terrible, cause we had 5 appt. fall through, because for some reason every person we saw, or found was wasted. They liked it anyway, so we were safe with that. Had 2 baptisms sat. for these 2 girls in our ward, but they were only baptized late, 11 and 9, so they weren't really investigators, just needed the lessons cause they are older than 8. I met a guy from New York, named oscar, a little ironic. He speaks english, and is super cool. Talk to yous next week.

week 9

So this week was pretty sweet. Moises passed his baptismal interview, and today we ran around for four hours and got a wedding certificate for Chencun family, so they have an interview this week. They are our golden investigators, do all the right things, and look for ways that they can be better without us telling them. For New Years we went back to our pension, and watched fireworks until 1. We weren't supposed too, really, but our dl said it was okay since it is impossible to sleep during firework time. If you guys think people back home like fireworks, you are mistaken. They aren't illegal here so everybody buys a ton. The whole city was lit up from 10 to 1, pretty cool, and loud. We met this guy named Pedro, and taught him a lesson, he is a capo, I think, says that he will come to church sunday for sure. Family Falcon, some other investigators, didn't come to church, the dad got attacked by a dog and had to go to the hospital, so that sucked. i am definently getting better at Casillano, which is awesome, for obvious reasons. I think that we have eaten pasta for every meal we have cooked in the last two weeks, which is not super fun, but it could be worse! I still like pasta. Out of time, talk to you next week!
