this
week was another good one. our investigators are progressing really fast,
and im almost positive well have 3 baptisms on the 30th which is
braxtons farewell, and also my four month mark. should be a special day!
WOW you guys finally sold the victory... congrats, but not. im
gonna miss that bike but now dad can put the 2000 in my account for
when i get home!!!! glad you had a good time at the spa mom the food
sounds freaking delicious. im jealous.
bueno,
this week we had a lot of good lessons with our three strongest
investigators, aroldo pino, erica clavijo, and victor. they are all
doing super great, and aroldo was able to come with us to destrict
conference this saturday! the saturday session and priesthood sessions
were awesome, mostly because i could actually understand basically all
of it!
on sunday presidente warne came to speak in the morning session. he spoke about placing our tents towards the temple and facing the right way at all times. dad, your experience at the temple was way cool and it reminded me of president warnes talk. nothing crazy happened this week, but we had a lot of really good lessons and the spirit was so strong in all of them. we found a recent convert named romina and she said she wants to start coming to teach lessons with us to prepare for her mission she wants to serve in the next year or so. she has such a strong testimony, and is a really great person. she was a blessing and answer to our prayers as we have been praying to find someone to help us teach. we cant teach erica alone because we have the rule of not being able to teach or go to teach women if they are alone but now we can go teach erica and our other 3 investigators with romina!

Is your bank card working now?
i haven't had to try it yet but if you put money on it then i'm sure it will work. thanks again for that!
Was your birthday package fully in tact? What about the bacon? I'm just wondering what I should and shouldn't send in the future.
ya everything was perfect thank you so much, please send bacon again, that was one of the best parts. seriously.
What did you do with Elder Garca's card. There was $20 for him to take you two to lunch and $10 for him to get something he needs. Just FYI.
I wrapped the money up in foil so the x ray machines don't pick it up, and so the postal service will leave it alone.
i gave him his card at the conference last monday, he said thanks and he loves you guys
We want pictures of your new place and your companion!
tranquilo, ill send em when we take some better pictures
Do the Chileans celebrate Thanksgiving? Do they eat turkey?
no i dont think so, turkey doesnt really exist here, or i just havent seen it yet, but i dont think were going to do anything for thanksgiving
Is it getting hot there? Is it humid?
its about 70 from 8 to 11, 90 degrees from 12 to 4ish, and 75 for the rest of the night. its a dry heat just like home. its going to get hotter in december and january though, ill keep you posted on the temps
