FIRST WEEK IN SANTIAGO

So the new area is awesome, we still dont get a washer and dryer and stuff but we get a shower head and that is better then a bucket, and my new apartment doesnt have as many rats at all as my last one so we can actually leave our foot out side of the fridge and it wont be eatin by morning. ya im not sure about when i am going to come home... but i really really need to get my school started so ill have to talk with president pretty soon but that is still a while away :). man my new comp is BOMB, dont try to find his parents cause they dont even write to him, im sure they wont write to u. but he is a stud and we are doing really good in our area it is awesome. it was wierd changing from that training mood to someone else who can actually teach too, and really good, so it was hard at first but i love it now and we have talked about it and our teaching is aweosme now, right in sync and stuff so its great! the missionaries here are awesome, im already starting to love them. i miss my other onse but these are good exchanges and i cant wait to get cool with them all too. ya i got the package and i loved it! the only thing it was missing was pictures, maybe the most important :) joke but i want some when u can get me some, i also have a lot of pictures i want to send home... and ya i did spend some, i needed some extra cash to carry around.
i totally walked into a good teaching pool we are making it even bigger now too. this week we taught 40 poeple with member presnet. that is amazing haha its my all time record and my comps, it was just awesome, needless to say we didnt waist any time walking or whatever we were always teaching and its going to pay off! im just thankful for the oppurntunity im here and everything, im learning a ton and everything. i love it. well i hope everything is going good at home. love ya mom

well what can i say about this week?... well i am finally getting settled in and stuff and starting to get everything down so that is nice! our work this week was awesome. we just taught and taught and taught, which is how it is suppose to be so its been awesome! man i dont even know what to write, all we did was teach.... i guess one thing i kinda got enlightened on that i could share about that is really important is about our priorities LOL. so this week i met and taught a lot of knew people here that arent really in to religion. they all love god, and know he is true and there all some what religious but most of the time its just untill there... and while we are teaching them about this truth and what that really is and how we can bring it to them, all i can see over and over again is just a lac of interest. everyone wants to think there good, they want to think that they just need to not kill and do really bad things and god wil have mercy on them and all i can do is get so frustrate and feel sooooo sad for these kind of people. i remeber reading in the bible, not going to lie, i cant remeber, but it said we should always be trying really hard to always increase our status. even as members at church, i ofter ask my self if i have repented of all my sins and if i were called to the judgment seet at this moment if i would be saved, i love this thought, lots of time when things like this pop in our minds we try to chace it away as fast as posible cause thoughts like that can be scary, or somtimes its just easy not to think about those things because the current concerns we are facing right now seem more important at the times being and easly distract our attention. But these kinds of questions are the onse we ALWAYS need to be asking ourselfs. i love chanpet 5 of alma, how alma asked all these questions to the people he was teaching and just made him think. i asked this to a women this week and it blew me away how easy the blew it off, she doesnt want to have to thnk about that, to stressful. i guess the only message i want to share with u at home is we always need to be asking ourselvs these questions, the ones that are not easy to dwell on but the ones in the over all long run will save and help us the most. while pondering if we notice there might be something keeping us from obtaining our full potential, change, immediately haha, even for me. being a missionary u are always thinking of these things and u still make little mistakes but i always pray for Gods help to over come my weakneses and i can honestly i am trying my best and in the end that is the most important. i know jesus already payed for all our sins, he already suffered for them and to not use that pain and suffering which cause jesus himslef to sweat blood from every pore would just be foolish! its payed for, Gods merciful hands are always stretched out to us, he wants to help us and we just have to be humble and accept and live his plan throught faith in Jesus christ which leads to our repentance. i love u and i want to be with u forever. take 10 min out of life and step back, reevaluate yourself and see what things are keeping u back from ur full potential of becoming a God or godess and quickly fix it. i love ya all. take care...
