It´s really almost been one month since getting here, yeah and three months total. The time flies by here like crazy. Yeah so no baptisms for now. Leyla our golden investigator said she can´t believe in a living prophet and all this stuff, but her boyfriend´s sister sounds interested. We found this way cool family. Miguel and Marcela, we had a lesson with them with a member and it was great, he totally threw down and explained things great. Both of them speak really bad so i have the hardest time understanding them but with other people it´s getting easier. So yeah Elder Mayans and Hardman who we live with had a baptism this past saturday so we invited miguel and his family -they have 3 girls, to come and see. So we went to the chapel and it was seven thirty and they weren´t there so we were getting nervous so elder mitchel was like wanna say a prayer? I was like sure why not, so we did and the second we finished he looked outside the gate and was like "they´re here!" It was like that part in the best two years when he prays that the guy will call and the phone rings and its the guy. Hallelujah! yeah i am such a nerd i know. It was really great, i felt like everything that was said at the bap. was for them. They also came to church yesterday! The ward members did great at making them feel at home, we are gonna stick them with a fecha- date for baptism, this week!! Elder Mitchel keeps pressuring me to do the part but i can´t rock it, i just don´t look good and im afraid if i do ill start to lose my hair, it´s just and old man thing to me! Ha, wow skinners with a new baby!! Thats so sweet i love them and little Reggs i miss her and all of my hooper childern, cooper, briggs and quaydo and of course my two princesses holls and launa! Ok so another family we found two weeks ago, they have read and talked about the bom as a family, how tight is that. So we told them they needed to pray to see if it is true. We have a lesson with them next week! Another family Patricio and Melene, they have one daughter who is seven. Really good people, they have some doubts but wtih some teaching and prayer i think we have fixed them. The really cool thing was that patricio´s cousin is living with him right now and he told us that he believes in a living prophet today and that the bom is true! I bout freaked when he said that! So awesome! I guess he met with the missionaries at his house but got really sick and was hospitalized and is living with patricio for the moment. So if he is here for long enough we are going to baptize him. It´s really cool how the lord works. The weather has been pretty nice lots of rain on tuesday, the road was a river, and some on sunday, it was so cold that day. I´ve had a pretty bad cold tho that was draggin me down but i hit the vitaman c and echinacea for mom and drank some yerba maté for chelsea and im doing really good now. Elder Hardman said it sounded like i was going to die at nights cause i would snore and choke so loud. The heads of our beds are also kinda close cause our room is so small so i smacked him in the face, it was pretty funny. Elder Mitchel the other night fell alseep while praying, it was hilarous cause elder mayans told him to wake up and elder hardman was like oracion! Which is what we say in the mornings for prayer when we wake up, so elder mitchel thought it was the morning and started to pray! Oh so you won´t believe what i have been eating, salad and celery which is really good, and potato salad, which ain´t too bad, don´t get your hopes up though. Oh i dont know if i told kiki that i drank some pero for him the other day too. It was horrible. yeah they don´t have ranch here, so the salad is great. The people of this ward are so great, i know i have like 2 changes more in this area but i already don´t want to leave them. Hermano Facondi is helping out a ton and him and Obispo Cofré are getting the help of the ward with our new families. They are all really excited and more that willing to do whatever we need which i´m sure is a blessing from dad helping the missionaries in our ward all those times so thanks dad! Thanks for the saddle pic it looks great, i really miss tooling but, the mission is so great, i know that it´s going to bless me for the rest of my life, and hopefully i´ll come home a grown man who knows a little more than the little chance roy that left! Don´t worry tho i ain´t gonna come home wierd. Which reminds me we talked to a drunk guy the other day and he tried to give us some herbs. I believe it may be the cocaine leaf. People chew it and it numbs their body so they can work all day without stopping. yeah our sector is so ghetto, some are worse tho. Most of the kids here are just wanna be´s they are all scrawny from smokin so much pot. I´ll send some pictures of our sector next week. That´s really awesome that mom´s helping the rodeo out, if anyone can bring it out she can, Mom rocks at finances and things like that! I´m learning that here tho, and to have a good attitude even when things are sucky, think about it, i live in the butthole of santiago and i can barely speak the language here, i should be depressed right? Heck no! The work here is great and with the help of the lord and the spirit i can do anything that i put my mind to!! Alright well my time here is up, i love you all thank you for all your prayers and support!LoveElder Roy!!
