Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeey everybody,
So this week was just alright but it´s all good cuz were doin the Lord´s work and so we´ll see the rewards if we keep working, I know it. We had a week full of searching for new people and we saw little success, but we did find a kid that is waaaaaay good. His name´s Camilo and we found him on Wednesday. He lives with 7 other people and the youngest is 10 years old so we´re lickin our lips haha pray that the family will be willing to listen to us and that we can unite them as an eternal family. Anyways we only shared with him once and he came with us to church, so that was awesome cuz that´s one of the hardest parts to help them progress. During church the bishop asked the members for a volunteer to come to church early and turn on the heaters so the chapel is nice and warm when everyone gets there. Camilo raised his hand. I was so stunned to see that, so he´s now in charge of coming and turning on the heaters every Sunday. Cool kid. Sad news,
Gustavo suddenly decided to move to his mom´s house and work. She lives in a completely different mission and he doesn´t know how long he´ll be there. He originally was only going to be there for one week, but then we got a call from some Elder up in Viña del Mar and they said, hey we´re here with Gustavo. Apparently they had a FHE with some members and asked them for a reference, the members gave them the reference for Gustavo´s mom and when they went over Gustavo answered the door and said hey Elders haha. So we don´t think it´s a coincidence that he´s there right now, it would be just so awesome if the elders there could baptize his family. It would mean so much to Gustavo. As for him we´re still deciding what to do cuz if he´s going to be there for over a month they´re just going to confirm him up there and we´ll have to send his papers and baptismal register and stuff, but he wants to get confirmed here, so he might make a trip down to Molina in the next couple of weeks. We´re hoping he can do that cuz it would make things a lot less complicated with his paperwork. President Chavez is way interested with his case and so he called us to see how he´s doing and he was confused with the situation and just told us to wait a bit to see how long he´ll be up there. He is going to call the mission president up in Viña to get things worked out, so our President is personally working to help Gustavo. It´s way cool. Today the President from up there called us, it was way weird to have contact with another mission as we often times feel like we live in a bubble here in the Chile, Concepción mission and nobody else exhists haha.
Sounds like you guys are all doin good, I loved the pics you seriously all look great. I give you props Amy if those are white vans. I want to thank you all again for that package, it really was like
Christmas for me! I loved it.

I love you all tons like a monkey loves a banana.
