  This week was a lot of things both good and bad. But mostly good!!!  Random puntos again (it's easier this way haha)  Mental health situation: one of our friends who we're teaching had planned to commit suicide on Thursday, and so we spent a couple of days facebook stalking her to try and get into contact with her children because legally they're the only ones who can do anything about it, but they didn't know. So overall super emotionally draining and we talked to our president about it... sometimes I'm shocked that they let 18-21 year olds do this work   Miracle family: this is literally the best part of this week. So. We have this member friend who is really awesome, she's always willing to help us and she's from Venezuela. And somehow, like all of the people from Venezuela know each other here. So this she introduced us to one of her friends who's also from Venezuela! And we started teaching her and her family. It's a mom with 3 daughters, ages

 Hiiiiii I literally have no idea what happened this week   Random puntos:  ☆p day we went to a bunch of second hand stores, which here are called American clothes stores because they're clothes from the states and super cheap. We didn't buy anything haha  ☆p day we took a bunch of pictures while the sun was setting on this pier thing  ☆area book is digital... and this week it died for like half a day, and we couldn't do anything.

 Hiiiii  Hows everyone doing? I hope really well.  The good news: im really happy here   The bad news: no hay  The details:  This was my first week in Angamos (my ward in Antofagasta, at the south most part of the city) and it is literally the wealthiest ward in the whole mission, which normally sucks for missionary work, but im actually kind of a fan. This week felt like we were in parade of homes, we got to see inside these crazy huge beautiful houses with beach front or mountain top views of the ocean... but those mountain top views were super tiring!! (My legs hurt so much hahahah.)  It legit looks like California in that part of our sector.  My comp is Hermana Cabrera who is Chilean (although she was technically born in Mendoza Argentina), and I LOVE her. She's in her last transfer and quiere puro trabajar (she wants to work!!!!) and we've already seen so many little miracles thanks to this attitude. We've both been really obedient and really focused this week, with r
