Another Cambio gone by.

  Well here we are again. Well this week was pretty good. Well it was alright actually, but it was still good. It was a pretty normal week here, lots of walking, a bit more sitting. Well I think I'll dedicate this email to about the investigators mostly.

  So first off we have Christian and his family. Well they're good, but we weren't able to teach him last week! He was always busy. That seems to be the big problem were finding here. But hopefully he's still doing good.
  Next we have Sonia, Karla, and Pablo. They're the grandchildren of the preacher we were teaching. They're also good, we taught them about the restoration and they understood it well. They even had some friends there with them that we taught too. And Sonia came to church this week! So that was good, also good was she already knew some of the people there. That's always a blessing.
  We also taught Nacho a couple times this week, but he still doesn't have permission from his dad to get baptized. So that's no fun.
  Also Anibal is doing good. we taught him, cleared up a couple doubts he had, and then he said that he was gonna go to church for sure, but didn't.
Alex, the old investigator is also doing really well. He also said he was gonna go to church but didn't.
  Basically that's what happened with most of our investigators. They either weren't there, or they said they'd go to church but didn't. So that's a little fome (lame) when that happens. But we did find a new guy this week. His names Martín. Hes 20 and he's really receptive. He's also really unique, I would call him the Chilean equivalant of a surfer kind of person, like with the way he talks and everything. But he's really good too, we've already found him twice, and he couldn't go to church this week, but he said next week he would, so I'm optimistic. His moms kinda crazy though.
  So now for a couple of the goings on here in Chillán. One thing I learned, not sure if it really works, but if you throw sugar on a fire it makes less smoke come out. Another thing, the mundial (world cup) has started, and it's apparent that when Chile plays, it'll be hard to get stuff done. The world cup's so popular here, imagine the super bowl, that everyone watches and lasts for a month. That's basically how it is, and one night, while we were planning, a drunk guy was walking down the street, singing at the top of his lungs and dancing down the street, like as if he was in a musical or something. But I wasn't fast enough to get my camera. Ugh, haha, but it was still hilarious. And yesterday it started raining, and it's pretty windy too. And in other news, I finished Jesus the Christ! It's such an amazing book.
  Oh yeah, and todays cambios! Elder Grant is leaving, but I'm not sure who's coming in his place. I'll let you know next week I guess! Well thats all I got for you, love you all, the church is true! Have a great week!
