Last testimony

For the first time in a while it rained this morning. It's started to get a little cold here.  On thursday we had a zone conference. It was good to hear from president and his wife. At the end of every zone conference the missionaries that are leaving give their last testimony. I couldn't believe that this last conference was our turn. It was so awesome hearing the testimonies of all the friends that I came here with. But also the date was strange giving a last testimony with so much time still left. Oh well. On friday I had an interchange with Elder Clarine. It was way too fun. We ended up teaching a lot of good people that day. He's been in his ward for a little time now and everyone their loves him. He is such a good friend and being in the same district as him makes the mission a whole lot better. On sunday the plan was to go to church with our investigator nicholas. He is 18 years old and is so awesome. I think I talked a little about him the last time. He lived up by antofoghasta and went to the church a lot there, and reciently moved to colina. Anyways we live pretty far from the church and the plan was to meet forty five minutes early to walk to church. We called him and he was still sleeping but said he wanted to go. So we waited and ended up only being like six minutes late to church. But when we got to church we saw that our president was sitting in the stand. It was the worse luck. He ended up kind of getting on our case, but it was a good thing because we were also able to talk about some other important stuff going on in our sector. We are teaching the most special family of all time. We've met with them a few times and all of them are really receptive. The mom is less active and her husband and four kids are investigators. The dad, roberto, started off being a little hestitant but has really opened up and is really considering everything. For example he refused to pray at the beginning but now at the end of lessons we pray on our knees and he says the prayer. On our way to their house me and mackay both got the feeling to change the lesson plan to alma 7 and talk about the atonement and baptism. He didn't commit to a date but said he would really think about it. He also said we made him really want to read the book of mormon so that was good.
