Hola y buenas tardes a todos!

Hola y buenas tardes a todos! This has been quite the week, but nothing too unusual just some fun times! Starting with Last Sunday, the End of the world (part one). Yes, thats right! The world was supposed to end last sunday, I dont know if you all knew that, but its true! Here is Chile we were suppossed to have a record breakign 11.0 earthquake that was basically suppossed to destroy the world (says some scientist in Brazil) and then I put two and two together and bingo! En Los estados Unidos (the US) they say the world will end with the wnter solstice and this was the winter solstice (sp?) for the southern half of the world! But as you can obviously see I am alive, and so are you (really, its true!) so I guess the world didnt come to an end, but there was some pretty worried people! haha Then we had some good lessons this week too! Orlando was being a little stubborn and we were about to leave him, but we wanted to have one more lesson, and it just went too good! haha He tried to pull out that he didnt need to be baptized just yet, cause jesus was baptized at 32 years old. and we didnt understand cause we were baptized at 8 years old until my companion, Elder Alarcón whipped out his conversion story, and well he was baptized 5 years ago, and that changed the mood of the whole lesson! It was awesome! So then we asked him if he would prepare to be baptized and we put a new goal for him to work for! woo hoo! Now we gottta do everything in our part to help him get there! But it was great! Then I got a few calls about some more water being cut. A señor couple apparently have us paying for everything but I dont have anything here on record for them, and so I called Elder Castillo and he gave me some advice and helped and now I think that everything is squared away. at least I hope that it is! Then we had lunch the other day and Elder Young and I went to get some ice cream and when we got back there was another guy sat at our table. So we started talking with him. He had NO idea we were mormon missionaries, but he knew we were missionaries. So we started talking with him, but he was still trying to learn the spanish, so we talked in english! haha he is from Canada and is here doing missionary work as a Jehova´s Witness with his wife and we had a really good talk with him and shared a little! It was really cool! and he was very down to earth which was what I liked, and it just turned out pretty good! I also finally got my first rain in Chile! (after 9 months!) and it started yesterday and is still going! Woo! I was pretty happy! Oh and one last thing, last night as we were going home (we were in a trio because Elder Greer had to go to the hospital) there was a homeless guy sleeping in the rain on a park bench. So we went to the office and warmed up a cup of noodles and brought it to him. He was very grateful and said that he was looking for work. So we referred him to the "recursos de empleo". He had had a accident with a train and had his pinky and his thumb left on his left hand. How hard would that be! and then we went home. What a great week! I felt like I feltthe spirit a lot more this week, maybe just cause we had soem more lessons, idk! But I liked it! haha Well I am signing out, time to go play in the rain! Chao! Elder Marvin =D
