Monday. 

we did do a whole ton other than we had interviews with president and that was super sweet to be able to talk to him and he is a letter of the law guy but he is a good person that cares about us.

tuesday.

pday haha just hung out cooked some food for the week.

wednesday

we taugh the fam. castillo and they have some problems with accpeting the word of wisdom so we are going to work with them and have lots of members passing by so that they can be baptized soon!!! it would be super sweet to see them baptized soon but it is going to take some work and alot of faith to have it happen in the next 3 weeks!

Thursday

we had splits with the two elders that dont to much and so went there to help them out. haha there sector is just straight stairs so that was pretty fun haha. got to know there investigator that is going to get baptized soon and she just needs help getting to church for now. and i had a nice heart to heart with the elder that is more lazy of the two and it was cool to see him change right there when i just talked with him as someone that just wants to see him have a baptism in his sector.

friday.

well we only had one lesson with a menos activo and we just contacted for the whole day. haha building the investigator pool.

saturday.

it was actually kind of cool. i was studing the numbers in my agenda to see if there was anything that we could do to find a new investigator and i notice that if we had place 3 or more BOM in a week we had at least one new person and i then went and checked the numbers for the whole district and it held true in 90 percent of the weeks with 3 or more BOM. so that day we placed 2 BOM and its was kind of a miracle but sure enough some guy showed up to the church when we left the church for mission coorilation and he wanted to come closer to god and we taught him and got a new investigator. that was super sweet!!

Sunday.

well the sabath day consited of going to church. had to go down to Viña to get my passport from the ZL. come back. studies for 45 min. contacted for 45 min. read my scriptures while my comp was talking to his fam. then i talked to you guys for 55 min and cried trying to say good bye for 5 min. and then we had to run home haha.
