How is everyone doing friends and family! 

 

This week started off insane. We had a bunch of lessons, all of them with potential to progress. All those people were super interested told us that they definitely want to go to church, but they weren't going to be available for the rest of the week... It was awesome to hear that these people want to hear more and complete commitments, but this was a weird week. One of our friends went to Argentina for a week and the others were working at the Expo de Quillota which is a crazy concert that went on all this past week, so they were working from 6 in the morning to 1 in the morning. It was absolutely crazy. For the entire week we could hear them going crazy a mile away from our apartment. We'll just say sleeping was rough and kinda hilarious. 

 

For the most part this week we were finding, because our friends had to work, and the best day to do that was Halloween! It was an absolutely hilarious day. A bunch of random people asking us for candy, so we gave them a church pamphlet. We also had a lot of people that saw that we didn't have candy and felt bad, so they gave us some of theirs. I kinda felt bad, but I definitely ate all that candy. We got a few lessons in and one lesson asked us to return this upcoming week, so over all a success 

 

We also won a huge lemon pie this week. Well technically last week, but it took until this last p day to get it. Basically, we had to talk to anyone we could see in the street and share a scripture about baptism. Whomever talked to the most people and shared a scripture won and we actually found a few people doing it and got a lemon pie so there's no downsides here.

 

Overall I'm still absolutely loving the mission. Always hard, always things to improve on, but it's amazing. The members are absolutely aweesome and so willing to help us out for lunches or just be our friends. Shout out to my boy André that gave me a super dope sweater and always is willing to help us in our lessons. 

 

My spiritual thought today is going to be simple and it's just an invitation, be happy . There's no better feeling in life then to choose to be happy when there is absolutely no reason to be. God will always give us the help we need we just got to ask then make the decision to be happy.

 

Love you all hope you all have a great week!
