Transfer back to Chillan

Hola everyone - 



After the LONG bus ride back to Chillan, we had lunch and went right to work.  It was sick to be back in the same place I was 19 months ago as a new missionary.  I will probably end my mission here too.  



My companion, Elder McChesney, and I joked about being companions back in the training center. We build off each others energy and are working really well together.   We play futbol and capture the flag with the kids we are teaching.  Oh I forgot to mention one of the best parts of being back in Chillan - it's like 90 degrees every day.  I love it.  But, the bad part of the high heat is that there's no one in the streets and everyone is too hot to answer the door.  It's a little tougher but we're still able to meet all of our goals.  



We had a activity at church - a water balloon toss.  Elder McChesney and I won lol.  Then we let everyone go crazy with the 600 remaining  balloons we filled up.  It was so sick haha.  



Saturday was like most Saturdays - we contact the people that committed to come to church to remind them about it.  We also spend time meeting new people.  Saturday I also got offered crack but I said no.  



On Sunday, I presented myself in sacrament meeting and lots of people recognized me (which surprised me because I was only here for 6 weeks).  We currently have 3 people with a baptism date - Antonela, Barbara, and Acinto.  After church we were invited to the house of a man who served as a missionary in Oakland.  We all got along really well and they made us tacos and brownies with ice cream.  Amazing way to end the week!



Sorry I don't have any pictures.  We are only allowed to leave the house with our scriptures in this area because it's not safe.  



I love you all,

Elder Vincent
