Well this week I got sick. I still followed the missionary schedule hahaha but my nose is a literal faucet. My sinuses are so inflamed and hurt so bad when I sneeze that my nose started bleeding. But good news: I was introduced to smelly tissues (Coconut Lime--it is pretty dope). I am all good though although there was one point yesterday where I was TIRED of being sick. We were walking to an appointment in the park and there was a bench and I just sat haha I had legit no energy (and Idk if you know me but I am like Mr. Energy) anyways... we ended up passing a haitian and taught him and it was all perfect timing! This week was a lot of finding and knocking. We have 2 people named Fabian (17 years old and emo haha) and Jerallín (16 years old and AMAZING) who are progressing great, reading the BOM and the pamphlets we leave, and come to our activites! Sadly, they could not come to church. But Fabian already accepted baptism. His mom said no. We took out the scrips and taught her why ...

HEY! I am just going to say sorry now for the essay I wrote. This week was SO GOOD although it felt semi uneventful. Quick rundown: Monday we had P day we took the bus to Chillan as we had Zone Conf  on Tuesday and we had to be there early so we slept at the zone leader´s house. Tuesday we had zone conf ALL DAY. It was so fun to see a ton of my friends and my KID in the mish (elder aros) and we learned all about the difference between being clean and pure. One is superficial and the other is  We also heard the news from the prophet that we are not called MORMONS rather LATTER DAY SAINTS. We as a mission need to work on that as everyone says ¨OH NO NOT THE MORMONS AGAIN¨ haha. Wednesday I had an intercambio with an elder in my district, Elder Rivera from Peru, in his sector in Bulnes. Thursday we knocked a lot. Friday we had our ward Family Home Evening and we played minute to win it games. Saturday we had a zone attack in Chillan at an big open market. We have this huge ba...

Hola. This week was so good! We had a baptism! Brian Muñoz! He is the smartest little 9 year old I have met. He was stoked to finally be baptized. Other news. In church yesterday I was giving a talk and there was an RM giving a talk and he had he served in Guatemala. Long story short we figured out he was the comp of dallin earl for 3 months and now he is totally willing to leave with us! We also had service filling up a HUGE truck with wet cardboard. This week we were zipping around everywhere on our bikes. Diego went to church and will be baptized Sunday night! The numbers of president changed again so now as District Leader I have to do 9 interviews every week with investigators to put goals and see how they are progressing and stuff so we have just been everywhere. My comp and I also had to come to Chillan at like 7 in the morning Thursday to get his Visa only to find out we have to come back next week. We have zone conf tomorrow and we live far away from everyone so tonight we hav...

QUE TAL YAL! This week I got here to my new area Quillon and omg haha this area is SO dramatic. I feel like I am on a reality TV show when I am with the members. SO this week I really was thinking about the topic of gossip. Quick info about my area: I am in a ward with about 50 people who attend. There are 4 missionaries in my ward (us and 2 sisters). My companion is Elder Evans from Indiana. I only have 9 weeks more in the mission. It was hailing, raining, and super hot today. The weather is bi polar. We are on bikes! We just switched houses with the sisters because someone tried to enter their house last week so our house is nicer (still not that nice haha this is still chile). There are quite a few haitians here. The hermanas are teaching all of them though. I had 4 interviews this week ALL with haitians haha and I had to use some Creole even though I have no idea how to speak. My sector was/is completely dead. We looked in the area book and visited some people. 3 people came to...
