I am hearing that people are getting a lot of snow in the United States. Or at least in Utah. It is the exact opposite here in Chile, where in the desert of Santiago the sun gets stronger every day. Thankfully, members in my ward are very nice and always give me a drink when I come to their homes. I just have to specify to give me WATER from the tap, instead of the soda or the juice that they give me. A day full of soda doesn't feel as great as it sounds. The building that we live in also has a pool, and recently we've seen a lot of people swimming in it. I just have to stay strong every day and remember that I do not have a swimming suit (which helps a lot).
We also get to talk to a lot more people who leave their houses because of the heat. We've been finding new investigadors, talking to more people about "Ilumina el Mundo," and sharing this great Christmas message. In my new area now, we also have houses to meet people. Its a lot better than talking to conserjes (doormen). But whenever a house does not have a doorbell, we ring the door the Chilean style and yell 'Alo!' If the people don't have headphones on in their house, they usually hear us and come out. Or their little sister hears us and tells them that we are outside, which happened to one of our investigators this week.
We did have one day of the week that it rained all day, and it was cold. It was a great day, especially since it cleaned the air here.
Have a great week!
