Week Three in Chile.....

Okay. So our main investigator is Roberto!. He is 55 and knows so much about the Bible. We knocked on his door and after 5 minutes we asked him if he would be baptized. He said, "Yeah!" Since then, we have been trying to get him to go to church. He works so much and doesn't have a choice to get Sundays off. He is really nice and always tells me to practice my Spanish!!

So, we went up to The LasTorres, the highest spot you can go in our area. We found alot of drunk people that wanted to dance with us. So, what did we do? We danced with um. haha. Some guy poured me a drink of orange soda and then stuck his finger in it and said, "It's tradition." So I dumped it out when he wasn't looking. Pretty sketchy place. Full of "flaite" We knock doors most of the night. It's really sketchy, but we always find so many people when it is late.

So...they don't refrigerate eggs or milk here. On the bottom of the milk there is a number of how many times they have re-processed it.

So, this week, I went on companion exchange with Elder Antolini. He speaks no English. It was crazy! I have to go miles away to work in his area, eat his companions food, sleep in his companions bed, and it just is weird.

So this week I cooked up some rotten potatoes and made french fries! with salt. They were good. So, if you wanna get cheap fruit here, you just go to the city garage sales. They are really sketchy, but so cheap. haha. It's like 15 huge blocks of yard sales! I will have to take a picture.

This week I was prompted by the Spirit to help this old man climb up the stairs and I failed to do so. Turns out he was 75 years old and was drunk. He got to the last stair when me and my companion turned around and saw him. He leaned back and rolled down about 12 stairs!!...like a rag doll...So my companion ran over to help him. He was so out of it. He saw us and started yelling at us and started screaming, "Why would God do this to me?" and just some random stuff. So we walked him home to his daughter and now we have a whole family of future investigators, haha. But, seriously, it was the craziest thing ever. Any normal person would have broken so many bones in that fall.

So, the Goofy Elder , who lives with us, got a foot infection and walks around on my nice carpet. So, he soaks his foot in a big bowl and then boils his infectious foot water in the same pan that I use to make my macaroni. THE THINGS I GOTTA PUT UP WITH!!! hahaha

So, my p-day was postponed because there is a huge holiday on the 18 here where everyone
parties and drinks because its their  "4th of July."

Miss You All.
Write Me Soon.
