at 9:25 PM - “ya, come on in...”

Ok well i will try to write you guys but i am tired and lazy so i hope you get all that happened this week. We had a great one. First off today we went to this big hill called santa lucia and went up it with the zone. It went really well and we had lots of fun. Then we went through this shopping zone and bought a couple suveneurs (dont know how to spell anymore) and then went to a food court to eat. But when we were at the hill it was cool cause i saw one of my converts, manuel. He is the kid that is 18 years old and i think he was writting tori. But he said he is doing well and still strong in the church, it was awesome. 

So this week we saw tons of miracles. First off there was this day that we were walking along and all the sudden we saw this guy and his car had died. So we went over and helped him push it and we got to know him a little bit and gave him a pass along card. Than we went to a appointment that we had. On the way back we did a contact with this lady and while we were talking to her this guy drives by and honks at us and shakes his fist at us. So we end the contact and start walking and the guy comes over in his car and starts yelling at us saying how we are of the devil and that he didnt want us talking to his wife. The woman just happened to be his wife and so he chewed us out for a while and left. So after that we had just lost all our excitement and we were a little down. So we are walking down the street and we see this a guy pushing another car that had broken down and guess who it was. It was the first guy that we helped. So we served him and we saw him serving someone else. It was so awesome, so we totally started a service chain. It was sweet

Then the next day we were walking around and had been walking around almost all day long. We were tired and it was like 9:15 at night. We go in at 9:30 so we were a little sad and really close to the house. We talked about it and we were about to just go inside early and call it a day but we said that we had to just keep going. We said that we were going to find a miracle. So we started knocking doors. We knocked and knocked looking for the miracle but door after door was slammed in our face. So it was like 9:25 and we are sick of getting rejected. So we say we are going to knock one more door. So we go and knock this door and this really tall young man comes out. Young people never listen to us so we thought that he wasnt going to let us in. So we asked if he wanted to hear a short message about jesus christ and right when we asked that, we basically started walking away cause we were sure he was going to say no. Then to our surprize he says, “ya, come on in...” Me and my comp, we look at each other then just go in. We start talking to him and he told us that he had recived the elders in maipu (i was there like 6 months ago) and had gone to church for like a year. He wanted to be baptized but never did it. So we are going to start teaching him again. But it was incredible, if we would have gone in the house, we would have never found him. AWESOME!!!!

Haha ok one more miracle that happened this week. We got this reference from the office and we went to contact them. We brought “finding faith in christ” and when we got there they let us in. It was a old couple. Their names are amanda and manuel. So we watched the movie with them and answered their questions. Then they asked us if they could come to church...(that never happens) so we said yes and that we would come pick them up. So yesterday we went to get them and they came with us. They sat down with a member family and during the sacrament we look over and amanda is crying a lot. So she goes out and we follow to see what happened. We were freaking out cause we thought someone had said something mean or she felt uncomfortable in the chapel. So we talk to her and she said that she had never felt the spirit so strong in her life. She told us that she is going through tons of problems but she felt the love of God and wants to keep learning and coming to church.!!!

So as you guys can see this was a miracle week. We had a lot of fun and did a lot this week. I am loving this sector and my comp. We are working hard and loving the miss. 

Ok now for a couple things that dont have to do with anything. First off i think i am going to start signing up for school. I need to apply first and the president gave me permission to do it. I went to my personal bank account but for some reason it is locked so if you guys could check that out, it would be nice. Also about my cd player, dont worry about it. I will live without one for 5 months. Anyways i love you all so much. Hope you have a good week with trek and all that. 

See ya later
