This week was pretty awesome!
Luchito Days
So we got this neat reference and it's for this guy called Luis Diaz and it mentioned he speaks English and even went by the nickname Luchito Days in high school. (Lucho is the nickname for Luis)
We ended up finding him in the street by accident and he was way swell. We set an appointment with him and before teaching him, we talked for 2 hours!!! He talked a lot but much of it was about his Christian background! He was close to becoming an evangelist pastor, but when they gave him an envelope full of tithing money after a humanitarian service (telling him 'This is your cut; we've got to live, too) he said nope and left....
So, he was pretty receptive and really interested in the Book of Mormon and promised to read it. We'll see how it goes. He was really, really friendly and at the end he said, (in Spanish, of course) "Hey, there's a saying in English... " (goes into English) "Friends shake hands but... brothas gotta hug!!!" and he gave me a hug! It was pretty funny in the moment. We're hopeful about him.
Piña Coladas
Finally got around to trying the coco lopez to make (non-alcoholic) piña coladas yesterday! Was a tad nervous about messing it up but I wanted to make some for the same Puerto Rican who was there for the guava pastries. Mainly, it was so he would be softer on us at the house inspections... and it worked (heh heh)
I did round two last night and it was life-changingly wonderful.
¡Vamos Chile!
We got the privilege of watching a soccer game because one finally fell on a P-day! And it wasn't just any game, it was Chile vs. Portugal! A GOOD game! It went 0-0 until penalty kicks and then Chile just went ham!!! Bravo didn't let a SINGLE ONE THROUGH. It was probably the funnest thing I think I've done one a p-day!
There's not a ton left to add, but I made a recording and that has more information so it's better. Have a great week everyone!
