This Friday, we had a counsel of Mission leaders, so we had
to go to Osorno to the mission home and have a counsel with all of the zone
leaders, sister training leaders and the AP´s and President Rappleye, it was a
good counsel where I was able to learn a lot, and I also got to see a bunch of
elders that I haven't seen for a long time which was really nice to see.
On Saturday, we went to visit a less active member and we were
ouitside the fence yelling. My elbow was resting on the fence and a mean
dog came at me and bit my elbow. It was rough because afterwards we had to go to the
hospital because they found rabies in Chile and so the church has every
missionary in Chile that gets bit by a dog has to get rabies shots. It wasn't
too bad of a bite though it was bleeding a little bit and broke the skin which did hurt a little. Now I have to have a series of 5 rabies shots over the
next month so that I dont get rabies haha, how sweet is that...
This week was nice, we have been finding so many people that
we really feel have the possibility of progressing which is great including a
handful of families which is always really nice. It's just hard for us to have
them come to church becasue in the weekend we couldn't find them to remind them
and then they didn't come so we are going to have to be working alot more with
that.
It is very hot here. We have a day of rain about
once a week but other than that it is just hot, hot and more hot. I think it only
feels so hot because we are out in the sun all day and our sector is
just pure hills. But it is nice and I definitely prefer the heat over the cold
which we´ll be having in about a month.
Well, I hope that all is well with everyone back home. Stay warm and enjoy the snow.
Love, Elder Nelson
