We started off with Tuesday, which was the annual celebration of chilean independence. On this day, everyone parties, and almost everyone does one of the following three things: Goes to the beach, goes out into the country, or partakes of alcoholic beverages. Basically, there was nobody here. Our numbers were way down this past week. We spent the day with members, and had an asado - a chilean barbecue. Yeah. Wednesday, we had my first baptism - I don´t really even know guy, but, of course, my companion tells me three hours before the service starts that I´m going to be baptizing him, so that was fun. Thursday I gave my companion excedrine for his headache, and he felt rather weak and woozy afterwards, because of the caffiene. friday, I was sick again, but still went and worked, and my companion was walking like he was part the indianapolis 500. Ugggggh. saturday we had a zone activity, where I couldn´t eat anything or participate because I was sick. Then we went and painted a house, and then we went and worked. Sunday we confirmed our investigator, John briones, a member of the church. we helped out in the primary, and had a family home evening with another investigator. today, a haircut. this week has gone by so fast.
Please give my condolences to the tomlinsons. Please keep me informed about my seahawks (pictures would be nice), and tell me all about the mariners.
Cordially,
Elder Hjelm
