Bacán

Well This week was really weird.  It has been awesome, and tiring.  I don't know if you can see on Google maps but our sector is divided into two regions,  Ovejeria alto and Ovejeria Bajo.  We live in Alto,  But we always are working in bajo.  And their are some serious hills connecting the two areas.  We live right next to the biggest hill and we walk up and down it everyday at least 6 times.  I have legs of steel now.  Still no endurance though.  Thanks to the Pedometer I know that we walked a total of 40.7 Miles this week.  Impressive, right?  Yeah lots of walking.  I have started judging the days success on the amount of miles we walked.  The fewer the better.
Well  I think Ovejeria is going to see a baptism soon.  I don't know if i will get to see it but i know i it will happen.  We have an investigator named Silvina who has been progressing like crazy.  She has a son who has been really sick the past few weeks and we have been visiting her about four times a week.  But the son is finally starting to get better so i think she will finally be able to come to church.  I really hope so.  She is the first real investigator i think i have had.  "Real" being that she really is searching for some kind of religion/change in her life.   

This week as a zone we went to every sector in Osorno and sang Christmas songs to investigators.  We had a ton of cars that would take us from place to place and then we would get out sing and then move on to the next sector.  When it was our sectors turn we went to Silvina´s house and i think the other missionaries were a little scarred of her.  She has lots of tattoos.  And a huge burn that covers most of her body.  A tea kettle spilled on her when she was a kid.  But I think she really liked us coming to her house to sing.  

Well that's about it.  Well not really,  We did do a lot of stuff this week but those are basically the highlights.  I love all of you guys a ton.  Cant wait to talk to you at 10am MDT on Christmas.  Going to be amazing.  Let me know if anything changes.  

Love, 
Elder Bacan Borup
