GOATED AREA
Week 1 down in Santiago. We have been super busy and wow it was a long one but it was fun. Super long days full of just walking and wow it gets real hot. I hate the sun. At night it cools down a lot tho and it feels amazing. The lake is still unbelievable every time I see it. Craziest sunset ever on Sunday. Can’t wait until me and Elder Grutzmacher baptize in it!
We also got informed we are getting kicked out of our apartment. The owner called and said he got deported from the states so he is taking his house back. Super L because our house view is so sick. However, I’m pumped because it’s super dirty and the bugs are crazy because of the lake. Our bathroom/shower is outside and belongs to all the bugs. They don’t stop biting either. So we go to bed in a lot of bug spray every night. Helps but not 100%. We're gonna move in with some members tho and it’s a lot better house with a great view of the lake so we good. We’ve been grinding lax in the house. Elder Grutz said he’s de-committing from BYU football to come play lax with me at UVU. Go Rines
Besides those quick updates, the work here has been good. A bit slow but we keep going. It’s hard to teach a lot of people because a lot of them don’t speak a lot of Spanish. A lot of them still do though, no excuses.
I am getting to know a lot of the investigators and members a lot better so I kind of have an idea of what to teach and what to say to them. Still super hard though. My Spanish struggles a lot. Members here are goated though. They always come to lessons with us and are translators and give their testimonies so it is a huge help.
I’m loving the area but I am still adjusting and am just a little homesick from San Martin.
Scripture of the Week:
John 17:21 “That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me”
Juan 17:21 “para que todos sean uno, como tú, oh Padre, en mí, y yo en ti, que también ellos sean uno en nosotros, para que el mundo crea que tú me enviaste”
