8 months!!!!

 Hola hola another week and another month down!! I have hit my 8 month mark and 1/3 of the way to the end woop woop!! But i am doing very good! This week went just swell and had some pretty cool experiences so lets start. 

-We are currently teaching a family with 2 kids that are 17 and i belive 12. But there are progressing well and have accepted baptism date which is so cool and the other day we walked by their house without even telling the we were going to be in their area and they were outside on the front porch reading their book of mormon together it was actually so awsome and later we got to talk to them and see what they understood and it was so cool too see. 
-We had the baptism of Sol and Luna which was so cool and awsome to be apart of getting the family back to church and helping the two get baptized. 
-We then had a ward activity and had quite a few people pull up and make it happen and we met somone new that could potentially have interest with the gospel!
-we had all of our inactive members that weve been teaching pull up again!!! Such a good feeling when you see them in church and paying tithing! Miracles happen!!!
- we got to talk to about 20 or so people that were learning english and help them and talk to them about the church and why we are on mission.
- there were a bunch of rocks in our apartment one day i think some kid was throwing them into the apartment becuase there were quite a few and all the size of a grape or bigger so kinda odd.
-The dude that called us a few weeks back that said he was going to kill himself pulled up too church and he was a absolute wreak. We had to sit aside with him for about 30 minutes and just try to make him chill out and to sit down and listen to the meeting. But in the end he left the church chilled out and with a book of morman in his hand so id call it a success!
-Sunday night we hit all the people in a area and dident know what to do so I lotterly sat down on the curb and said we will wait for the spirit to guide kinda as a joke but then after we just started walking and saw a path ive never taken so we took it passed a few house and boom a house with lights on and a lovely family with baby rabbits! They sat us down got us something to drink and let us speak and answer their questions about the bilbe and the book of mormon! 
But overall this week has been bussy and just really have seen how God has used me and my companion to help other people ive seen countless examples where im just thankful that i was there in that moment or that they talked to us and that i have been part of something that has possibly changed their lives forever. It encourages me to be better and work harder so i can better help the people here. 
Scripture!
-psalm 95
4 In his hand are the deep places of the earth: the strength of the hills is his also. 5 The sea is his, and he made it: and his hands formed the dry land.

The way for me that i see God the most is in his creations. Everyone has different ways of seeing or hearing God but for me i see the love he has for us just by looking around us. It could be the sunset or the pretty mountains that are around us and how we have access too it all. He loves us enough to give us a world with color and trees and life. Like i said everyone sees it differently but i see God in the things that surround us everyday and we dont even notice. Ive also said this before i think not sure but if you see a sunset i think thats enough to understand that Gods real and loves us too every star that fills the sky!
But thats all i got and i have transfers this thursday so im hoping for the best pretty sure im leaving here which is sad but. Anyways have a great week and talk later!

  Well, this week has been full of surprises.We had to drop two of our people that we had on for baptism dates. But one of the other ones got pushed back A week so don't know if we'll have any baptism this transfer but. Been able to find a lot of cool new people And get to know them too. This week was really busy between having zone conference and companion exchanges It was a pretty hectic week. I love walking in the streets.Cause all you hear's gringo, gringo, non-stop and all the little kids come running up to you and try to shake your hand and run their hands down your arm.Trying to slip the bracelet or watch or your ring off your fingers its pretty funny. I did find out that my companion elder Stafford is deathly deathly deathly Scared of spiders like it's not even funny. Last night I was in bed and I hear him screaming for his life. And I run out the door and hes like spider spider spider. He's like about to faint like bro, it's just a spider. And this thin...

  This week was a full one to say the least a lot happend. Lots of really touching experiences that were really cool! I got to go on a companion exchange and got to got to the heart of down down santiago. The elder i went with in charge of all social media and all the referrals that people put in. So i ended up not going out in the morning and just on a computer going through them and calling them. Crazy how many people hit the link and fill it out but then say they never did it haha. Like buddy you filled out your whole name email and phone number haha. But after that we got to go out for a little and met with this really old lazy. She was the sweetest person ever. Shes 81 and we got to talking and giving her a lesson and she told us a story that was pretty touching. She said one day she started to feel really hot and her skin started to look black including her face. She went to a doctor and she said it got worse and she said she was never going back. She picked up the bible and ...
