Hola family from rinconada santiago chile!!! This has been a really good week. Don’t worry my foot has gotten a lot better. I have been taking medicine and soaking it 2 times a day in salt water so it has gotten a lot better. The doctor we go to is a mission doctor and he is really smart. So that is why we have to go like one hour and a half to get to him. But ya if we ever have to actually have something done, like surgery or anything more than just looking at the problem we go to the best doctor in chile. They send us to the richest part of chile so there are no problems.
This week was so awesome. One of our investigators, anastacia, finally passed her interview and will be baptized this Saturday. Also we put 2 more baptismal dates this week. One with this awesome lady that said that she wanted to get baptized when she saw belen, the little red head that we baptized, get baptized. If all goes well she will be baptized in the last week of feb. also the young kid that I told you guys about like a month ago, manuel. He is 17 years old and has been going to church since he was 13. he finally put a baptismal date and will be baptized the 28th of feb. he is so awesome and we are going to pray and fast for him so that his parents give him permission to get baptized 1 week before his 18th bday. I hope he will be able to cause if not he will have to wait for a long time cause he is going to the south to go to school. So make sure to pray for him ok?
So we had a sweet experience this week. We got a reference from a less active member to go visit their sister. So we went and taught her for about 30 mins when her husband came home. He walked in and I knew right when I saw him that he wasn’t Chilean or from south America at all. We found out that he is from Germany. He lives near the swiss border I think is what he said. But his wife, who is Chilean, moved to Germany for 2 years. They got married and moved here. He isn’t a member and now we are teaching him. He is from the presbitirian church but is so awesome. He is learning Spanish so sometimes its hard but it is sweet. He spoke German for me and it was cool cause I could actually understand a little. It is really similar to English. Then I had to speak a little German to him. I said, heins, vie, dri…I don’t know how to spell it but its 1, 2, 3, in German. Also I said, Wo ist da essen… don’t know how to spell that either but it means where is the food. He said that he understood me and that my accent actually wasn’t that bad… haha awesome. But it was funny cause there was 4 people in one room from 4 different countries. USA, Germany, Chile and Peru. It was pretty cool.
But ya that was my week. It is still pretty hott here but its all good cause the temp is starting to drop. Mom, tell gma hall that I got her letter and money. Tell her thanx and that I am happy that she is doing well. I love you all tons. Hope you are having fun. Keep praying for me and doing what you are doing. Have a sweet week. Love you all tons.
Les amo
