Week 15: rainandrainandrainandrainandrain

hi hey hiiiiii from chileeeee

RAIN RAIN

this week  was a good one! but I mean they're all good obviously because Im in freaking chileeee.

first of all I have a kinda funny story...Last week during our nightly planning session we recieved a call from Esteban (one of our investigators) and SUPRISE he was drunk again. And he was like, "my hermanas, why didn't you visit me today?" and we just kinda listened for a couple of minutes, and then he said, "you guys need to come here RIGHT NOW. My señora wants to fight you guys. you need to come so I can prove to her you are just trying to preach the good word of God.." hahaha we were like "ummmmm what???" apparently his wife is super jealous of us and wants to fight us. soooo needless to say we are going to take a little break from Estaban and his silly wife. chau for now.

Its a little lame because we had to drop basically all of our investigators this last week. None of them are progressing. Its super sad to leave them, because I really love them so much, but one thing that I read this week in a talk that my district leader gave me said, "the scripture says that the field is WHITE already to harvest. Its not brown ready to plant, yellow ready to water, its WHITE ready to harvest." There are people out there that are prepared to hear this message and we need to find them, and not waste our time on the people that aren't all the way in. ya know? sooo yeah. Kinda a lame week. But I know with all my little heart that this week we're gonna find tons of people. And its gonna be a miracle man. 

Here in chile they have these super weird park/
excercise thingys on like every corner
and they're super weird but way fun.

lets see. this week we stopped by the bishops house to use his bathroom and his daughter gave us two of these random fruits that I've never heard of or seen before... they're called MEMBRILLOS. So I carried this heavy fruit around all day and was so stinking excited to eat it when we got home. Like... Giddy. I was stokeeeeed bro. So anyways, I get home, cut it open, and its FILLED WITH FREAKING WORMS!!!! like i'm not kidding. Filllllllled with worms. No big deal, my bishop just tried to kill me or something. i'm not gonna lie, it was probably the saddest thing that's happened to me so far here in Chile. :'( 

but yeah... this letters a little lame I know :) BUT. I'm so so happy here. Its been hard but super super worth it. Everyday I love this country and these people and this language more and more. Oh and also I like understand like almost everything now which is bueno too. Life is good and I'm happy and I know without any doubts that this is where I am supposed to be and that things are about to get real good here in Avenida Alemania :)

gracias por todos! le amo muchooooo

con amor,
