Subject- November 25, 2013

I think the worst part about writing these letters is having to come up with a subject line. Because thinking back on every week, the only thing i can ever think of is "wow last week is crazy" haha. I cant come up with anything else. Ill work on it...

I think im just gonna go through day by day of this last week. Because there were lots of things that happened. Sooooo let us start with monday. 

So monday we went and played football one more time. Once again we enjoyed it, helped out alot, and this time at the end we did an invitation to listen to the missionaries, come to church, left some folletos with everyone...... but it gave very little results :( sooooooo.... That was the end of that. It was fun while it lasted though! haha. I learned alot more about football that i never knew before :P

Then tuesday nothing really happened

But on WEDNESDAY........ well that was an interesting day of the week. Soooooo last week i said ill probably have something interesting to share. This is it. 

So on monday we only had half of a pday. Why? because we sacrificed half of our pday on monday, so we could move it to wednesday morning. So about a week or two before I got here to this sector, Elder Holt, (who goes home in January) has always had the dream/desire to play golf in as many places in the world as possible. Kind of like how i want to get to all 7 continents. So anyway he had went to President Arrington and had negociated a deal with president so that he could maybe go play golf one day since theres a golfcourse like 30 minutes away from our side of town. President said he would think about it. Well last week president reported back to us that he had decided that it was alright if we went and played. But the thing is that the golf course is closed on mondays, so wed have to sacrifice some of our pday monday to be able to go on another day. So we did. and on wednesday morning, we woke up and went and played a round of 9hole golf. IT WAS SO SWEET. hahaha. I obviously have pictures that i will send. So we woke up, went and played, and then came back in time to shower and go to lunch. and then went to work in the afternoon. hahaha. It was awesome. So.... I played a round of golf in Chile on wednesday morning! hahaha. 

And then after lunch we actually had to go to the office in Conce to go pick up two elders, because on wednesday they started the 2 day long "Newbie Conference". and so some elders needed a place to stay, so we picked up two, did divisions in the afternoon, and they stayed with us wednesday night. I was with an Elder Miller from Washington. He was super cool! and had alot of animo and was super smart and a super good missionary haha. We had a good time! and elder Holt was with an Elder Duncan. but it was super funny because at night when we went to bed.... Elder Miller snored SO. BAD. It was the worst snoring i have ever heard in my life. ha. Elder Holt and I were sleeping on the floor on some pad things we had, and during the night the both of us kept waking up to the snoring and just looked at eachother and were like "oh my gosh im gonna die". And so we kept throwing things at him all night and waking him up a million times so he would stop snoring hahahaha. It was so funny. So bad but so funny. so we were super tired the next day haha. 

Then on thursday we ALSO had someething else to do. Because resulta que Elder Holt has a tiny hernia going on I guess in his stomach... So we woke up early on thursday to get ready so he could go get an xray in conce. So we got the xray, turns out he does have a tiny hernia, but its small and he has little time left on the mission so theyre just not even gonna worry about it right now. haha. Hes just gotta be careful. We then proceeded to have a normal thursday workday.

But on friday morning... I once again woke up DYING. Friday I woke up with a really bad cold. Super headache, super congested, super hot, and a horrible cough. So i feel ALOT better now. Ive still got a little cough and a tiiiiny bit of congestion. But i dont know what it is here in Talcahuano... but ever since ive showed up ive just been getting sick each week with something new.... :( I dont know why. Im taking care of myself and being careful... but it looks like its just not working. shoot. But im getting better. Hopefully I dont get sick again...

But then on saturday we had a normal day. We had an awesome Noche de Hogar with the family Sid Vargas that went really well. But thats about it.

But on SUNDAY was a special day too! Because It was the Primary Program in the sacrament meeting! haha. and I played piano to accompany them! haha. They did a good job. They were made up of about... 15 kids haha. So obviously they sang quiet and what not. But it all came out really good! haha it was super fun to accompany them and see them do their thing. 

andddddd that was a bit of the week. I shall send pictures as well. Were still doing really good with our investigators. The family of 4 (sid Vargas) is doing really well. Theyre loving it. Keep them in your prayers! and we still have 3 others were working with as well. Were working hard and happy with the work were doing! We just gotta keep going up! haha. 

Well thats it for this week. Ill get on those pictures now! I love you and miss you all! I love learning and growing and progressing. Its the best. haha. Buttttt. The gospel has been restored! Christ lives. Have an awesome week!

-Elder Heyman
