He fam all is well down here in Chilley.  It's indeed been pretty chilly as of late but we are enduring to the end fighting through it.  The hardest part is keeping your face warm because of the wind and it is hard to cover up but hey just gotta keep surviving right.  We have been all good down here, Elder Diegoli and I are getting along very well and are working very hard.  This last week was a little complicated because Carlos, one of our recent converts here in Valle de Azapa is having a hard time paying attention in church (because he got a new phone) and is also thinking about moving back in with his girlfriend and his kid because his mom is a "witch".  It's kind of a hard situation but we're trying to support him and find out the best way to help him with his struggles at the moment.  Also this week WE LOST POWER.  I was on interchanges with Elder Quispe and i thought we were gonna die of cold in the nighttime but we didn't!!  thank goodness.  We also got to share a lot with an inactive member of our ward who wants to come back to church !!  He has a really strong testimony and I'm so pumped to be able to work with him.  We also saw a couple miracles in the week because we were walking to an appointment and I messed up the house (and I never mess up houses because I always know where I am, I swear I could get anyone to any Seven Eleven in Connecticut) and we knocked the door expecting it to be the person we had an appointment with but she was like "nope you've got the wrong house" so of course we started talking to her (being lost is a great conversation starter) and she had already shared with missionaries 10 years ago, and is super dope !! We also contacted a reference named Matais this week and he was really cool.  He says he wants to change his life and bring everything around full circle (and believe it or not, that's why Jesus came!!!) So we are having a really good time here in renca and are trying our best to be the best that we can be.  I hope you guys are having a great time in your states wherever you live and if I can help you with anything just let me know !!!
