Ok so this week was dope, we had a great week and we were
able to get a lot done. As I speak there is a Peruvian Elder looking over my
sholder at my monitor so we will see if his English pays off and he can
understand what I am about to say, ok Elder Terrel we will see if you
understand.
This week was a great week! So we found a Columbian couple a
couple weeks ago ad we are now teaching them, and they are awesome, they have
the best questions for us abou the Book of Mormon and God and His Plan. On
Monday we went and had an appointment with them and we presented them the Book
of Mormon and they both said "We need to read this book to know if what
you guys teach is true, come back on Thursday and we will have read the most we
can so that we can ask you mas questions." So I am realy excited for our
appointment tomorrow, it is going to be bacan siiiiiiiiiii. Last week as well
we met and were abe to teach a ton of new people. So down here in Chile during
February is summer and everyone decides to take their vacations at the same
time, so for 2 weeks all of the investigators we had were out of town so we had
to spend the whole time finding new people to teach, so we have had a ton of
new people! One of these new persons is Natalia. On Friday we were in a division
and i was with an Elder named Elder Wattles. It was about 5 in the afternoon
and I had already sweated through my shirt so we decided to go knock on a door
and ask about a reference we had gotten for someone the week before. Said
person did not live there, but Natalia did. She was super receptive and nice to
us and she gave us a glass of juice without us asking (I think she saw the
rivers of sweat on our faces and felt bad for us). But we talked with her and
taught a little bit about our purpose and she was super receptive and told us
to come and speak with her and her family again! Piola, pulento, bacan
siiiiiiiiiiii. Overall it has been pretty awesome.
Ok so story of the week. So we were walking in the street
the other day and we saw a bunch of Chileans picking on a Haitian in the street
and it looked like the Hatian was having a rough time, but then all of the
sudden he turns around and nails one of the Chileans in the face and laid him
out on the concrete and then walked away. Needless to say, it was freaking
awesome.
I love the mission, and so does
my companion, he actually will finish his mission on Monday and goes home, I
love you Gavilanez, I will miss you a ton big guy. It is going to be weird
seeing him go, I have learned a ton from him and I am going to miss him around.
But, when there is a beginning there is always an end.
Love,
Elder Tilghman
