Hey family this has been another really good week on the mission. As you guys can see it is Tuesday and i am writting you. We changed pday because yesterday we had a service that we did as a zone. We went to this school and painted and pulled weeds and washed stuff. It was fun and a good way to become closer as a zone. I love doing service, it is just sweet to be able to help others physically just as much as spiritually.
So ya spring and summer have finally hit chile. Oh man i forgot how hott it gets here. The other day it got to 32 degrees celcias which is pretty hott. The thing is, it actually gets a lot hotter in utah but the difference is that here they dont have indoor conditioning nor do we have cars with air conditioning and stuff like that. Also in the summer at home we dont spend all day walking around in the heat. But it is all good i am doing really well and trying to drink lots of water. I am trying to get back into shape before i come home so i have given up pop and now all i buy is water. Also we have gone out running a couple days in the morning so i can loose my gut haha.
Well the other day chile´s soccer team played colombia and beat them. That means that now they are going to the world cup in africa. So as i have told you guys, soccer down here is huge so we were walking around in the street and there was no one outside and no one would let us in. So everytime chile scored we knew because in every house everyone started to scream and there was tons of noise. But finally they won and all of chile came running out in the street. There were so many people and everyone was screaming and running around all drunk... haha so we were just walking along trying not to die and all the sudden a group of young punks suround us and start jumping up and down and pushing us and all this crap. But nothing happened and we just kept on pushing till we broke through the group.
Also yesterday we had a family home evening with this awesome couple that we found. So we got with them into the house of a member and all the sudden we hear a alarm go off outside. Well that is usual but it wouldnt turn off so we go out to look and there is this really nice car in the middle of the street with the door open and the lights going off. We went over to see what happened and this kid said that it was stolen and that about 30 seconds after we went into the house 3 kids, a guy and 2 girls, came screaming around the corner and the car died and they left running away. The cool this is that the car had a anti-theif thing that would only let go like 200 meters before the car turns itself off and the doors lock. It was sweet and after that happened we went back inside and had our family home evening that went well.
Then this week we found this golden family that we have taught 2 times. It is a couple and they have 3 girls. We contacted the dad and he wanted us to come by. We went by and he told us how he wanted his girls to get closer to God and to be baptized so we have been teaching them and they love everything. We found out that they arent married but its all good we are going to try to get them married and then baptized so they can be a eternal family. They are so cool, i hope i can be around to see them get married.
Besides that everything here is good. Me and my comp are getting along really well and working hard. This week i got a book of mormon and the cd of the book of mormon in portueges. It is sweet cause i can basically understand and speak all of it. So i am trying to learn portueges before i get home. It is really simular to spanish so it should be pretty easy to learn. Well that is all that happened this week. I love you all tons. Have a awesome week.
Love
Elder hall
