Ovalle Sur sector
the same mexican restaurant i went to with elder tondevold and elder owen a bunch...so good.!!!!!hey how are things going this week? things for us went really well. This week we started teaching our branch president's parents who areent members. they have listened to the missionaries before but were never really interested. It seems now that they really have an interest in progressing. They came to church yesterday as well as the branch president's sister and her family. We are going to start teaching them this saturday which should be sweet. Presidente Varas (the branch president) is so excited to see his family taking steps into the gospel. yesterday we had the primary program in church which is always a hoot. there were only like 6 kids who participated but there were still some funny moments.
this coming week, president gillespie is coming up on wednesday to do interviews. we will get to eat lunch with him as he does the interviews in our church. we are going to be eating with the district president it lookds like. on friday we have zone conference up in La Serena. Its been awhile since i have been up there!
so the spiders are starting to come around again and we have had some fun catching them and lighting them on fire...the people down here say thats how you have to get rid of them or if not, the eggs will hatch and there will be more. i was able to kill one that was streaking across the wall about to head behind a desk but nailed it with a rubber band which took off a few legs and ended life right there haha...we then took it outside and burned it.
the weather here is really getting hot. summer is definatly here in Ovalle. it gets nice when the sun goes down so we only have to bear the hear till about 7 when the sun starts setting.
The book of mormon reading is going well. I am almost done with 3 Nephi. it is like pure underlining as its Christ´s ministry. we have to be finished by friday morning...shouldnt be hard to finish by then.
well things are going great for me down here. I am loving it and we are really working great, elder allen and i. one of our investigators that is getting baptized on the 28th said he likes to play bball so on saturday we played. it was pretty fun. he was terrible but it was fun to get out and play a bit.
well that is pretty much what is going on for me here. we are teaching a lot right now and preparing a few people to get baptized here in the next few weeks. we should have a couple families of investigators in church next week which is exciting. Woo HOO.
well take care everyone. chao
