Chile Day 15: Curcus and Grandfather

Today was Sunday so we went to a different church where the family from New Zealand was going to give the talk at. He did a great job at the talk. The church was all Spanish speaking so there was a translator. That evening we had lasagna with the visiting family. Afterwards, us and one Chilean went to the nearby Chinese Circus. It was about average. I heard this afternoon/evening that my grandfather had went in earlier in the morning for emergency gall bladder surgery. This is life threatening to him because he is 85 and has had serious abominable surgery before. Please keep him in your prayers.

Chile Day 14: Two weeks

Well This is the mark of being here in Chile for 2 weeks. We had 2 visitors from New Zealand drop by for dinner today. We also went toe the Lider to go and shop for some food for today. I am posting this a day later because I was getting a movie ready to watch with everyone and we lost power. We were not the only ones who lost power. 10 million people lost power in Chile. More than 2/3 of the country was in a blackout. The electricity came back up about 3 hrs later during our movie. But it left us without Internet or Water until the morning.

Chile Day 12

Today I went with the family when they went to school. When I got back I went with Mrs. Fought to go and clean a room for someone nicknames the “Kiwis” who were coming in from New Zealand. After that I joined the guys and worked some more. After lunch we went to go and pick up them at school. When we came back we played a small game of soccer with the Colombians and other people that usually don't play soccer. After dinner they have a weekly family meeting for everyone on the base. At the meeting there was lots of food and bread which is a plus.
