Chile ~week 89

o jsut so you all know.. next tuesday i will be writing agian, cause of new years.. so when i dont write on monday dont be all scared!! haha
well this week was great.. first of all cause it was christmas week, and we had an awesome christmas!!
heres my week:

Wednesday: so this week was weird, cause there arent many members, so we have had to make lunch ourselves at home almost everyday.. so please send me some recipes!! haha so this day we had lunch at home, we worked with the area book a bit, then went to contact.

Thursday:we had district meeting, we went to buy food so we could make our lunch, we had to travel back home, our area is so small we sont even have any grocery stores.. so we have to travel a lot.. haha that afternoon we went to the church, to have a meeting, we got to meet a few of the members, we set up the branches christmas activity..

Friday:
was also a good day, we had interviews with our mission president, we came home and had ot make lunch again.. then in the afternoon we went and had a lesson with some old investigators, they said we could come back agian, so thats sweet!!! then as we were contacting near home, there was a kid that was like 19.. he said they were members and we had to go to their house.. so we went over there, and we talked to them.. they were all inactive, and the mom had been inactive for 5 months.. so we set goals with them and invited them to do some things.. then oin sunday the mom came ot church!!

Saturday: we had to go to lunch, it was good, but we had to walk a few miles is the mountains to get there.. so that was fun.. then that night we had our ward activity.. and only 11 people came.. which was crazy, theres more people in my family!! haha

Sunday: okay so we had church, and there were only 12 people, with us.. so i hd to lead the music, and speak, my companion conducted and also spoke.. the missionaries have a lot of work here. after church we had ot bring the sacrament to some members.. we went to the area called puren, and celelbrated christmas there..

Monday:  was christmas, we were able to do skype, which was fun, we also celebrated a bit with the fmaily we were with..
But thats all my week!!!
it was awesome, and i hope you all had a rgeat week! and hope you all had a very feliz navidad!! :)

Saturday: in the morning we studied a bit of french, i now know how the say the churchs name in french.. but not dure how my pronunciation is...but we also went to visit alison and her family, we brought the branch presidents wife with us.. and she helped a lot!! Then that night we had to cut our grass in out yard.. it was really long, there mgiht have been parts that were taller than i am.. so.. it was about time to cut it!! hahah
