Chile ~week 37

So this week was good, felt a bit long, but maybe for my new companion Elder Page, Hes a cool guy, i think well get along and have success this transfer.

Heres my week:

tuesday: in the morning we had transfers, so elder gordillo left.. i had to wait a few hours for my new compaƱero. and hes pretty cool, he got here and we left to work. we were visiting our investigators. and our investigator nico decided he didnt want to talk to us anymore. so we started talking to his sister and her friend and her boyfriend. and we ended up setting 3 baptismal dates with them, but they ended up not coming to church so they fell...

Wednesday: We had district meeting, our zone is way cool, i have a bunch of friends here, a lot of my friends from my zone before(Lebu) came here to this zone, and i met a few more people, so its way cool. we walked around and visited some members so they could get to know my companion, because this ward here is very cool, and very nice.

Thursday: was a hot day. we did weekly planning. we left in the morning/afternoon, we walked past this lady and my comp said hello. i smiled at her and we continued walking, she was yelling hola at me until i said it, so that was kinda weird but kinda funny. we were invited to the baptism or a re-baptism of a member who was excommunicated. it was pretty cool to see the way the atonement has worked with him. the assistants came to setup for the conference the nexy day, so we helped them setup a bit  ause it was in our church building. then afterwards they stayed at our house which was pretty cool.

Friday: we had the conference, Elder MArk A. Bragg from the 70, and our area presidency came and spoke to us. hes a really cool guy, and we learned a lot! i went in with a question, and i got the answer!! so that was cool, we walked a lot and contacted a bit..

Saturday: it was a rainy da|y. me nd my comp started to switch off keys and phone everyday. so when we left, it was my comps turn for the keys, he grabbed the wrong keys and locked us out of the house... great... again... haha. we went to lunch and had a good lunch. thenw e had to go to the relief society president cause she had a copy. but turns out the copy she had wasnt the copy. so then we called the mylers(senior companionship that has keys)  and they came and opened it for us. 

Sunday: i had to bless the sacrament again, rained a bit. we passed for our investigators who didnt come to church, one of them, catalina(who has a baptism date), she said  her daughter was sick, so we gave her a blessing. then after we went to the hospital to give a blessing form a member of another ward. thenw e contacted the rest of thie night. contacting doesnt work very good in this area cause its all big city nd a lot of the people arent nice.

Well i had another good(long) week. and were still progressing with our investigators, so thats good. i hope you all have a good week!!
