HOLA

This week was pretty good.  We did the stand tuesday and wednesday and that was fun.  We didnt find anyone to teach and the hermanas (aka las hobbits)  broke the stand thursday so there is no more stand in the zone of Illapel. 

    

Wednesday for lunch I ate some really funky looking sea creatures.  It was pretty good.  We also eat spaghetti almost everday here.  Spaghetti and bread.  Thursday we found a new investigator named Nicolas.  He is living with the daughter of one of the members here and she is starting to become active again.  THey just had a baby girl and he just quit smoking and theyre are going to get married (hopefully) pretty soon.  Friday we had intercambios and I was with Elder Duran.  I ran into some guy from Arkansas here which was pretty random and cool.  We spoke english together. good times.

     

Saturday we walked a lot and sunday too.   Yesterday some lady told me that I was going to die of cáncer and that I needed to go buy a hat.  I said no. 

    

Sunday in the third hour there was a meeting about better retención because out of the last 33 baptisms in the rama only about 7 are attending church.  Milena and Jaime both atended yesterday which is good.  This week we have interviews thursday and intercambios with the zone leaders tomorrow. 

  

I already puked because of the whole Jeremy and Janette thing.  You guys have to make a cardboard cut of me.make sure its lifesize. All 6'3 of me. 

   

I love you guys and Im miss you guys.  I hope you guys have a great week.  I need to go eat a completo Im very stressed. 

   

I know that the church is true and that the prophet is called of God.  Love you

Elder Gardner
