Maipú Sión!

This past week was pretty great, Maipú continues to be a great area!
On Wednesday we had a zone meeting which was good. They told us how to use the area book a little bit better so it´s ´más brillante que el sol´ (brighter than the sun). Then afterwards we ate pizza as a zone, that was pretty fun.
So one of our investigators, Carlos, came to church again yesterday. He´s fed up with all the bad things in this world and basically is looking for positive things in his life, which makes it easy for him to keep commitments. He lived in the United States for like 30 years so he speaks really good English. On Friday we taught him the restoration, and at one point he switched over to English to express himself better, and I did something I have never done in my mission... I testified of Joseph Smith in English. It was insane. The spirit was very strong.
We´ve been able to find quite a few investigators, it´s really weird because Carlos isn´t the only person we´ve found that speaks English. We taught a dude and his wife, they´re really young and they travel to Canada quite a bit. We also found a dude named Jeremy that lived in Texas for a few years. This has never happened to me before, but Elder Banks loves it cause he can understand them perfectly hahah.

Elder Banks and I have been getting up in the morning to play basketball. We found an outdoor rec center kind of thing so we ball hard... It´s a lot better than try to do exercises in the pench at 7am.
Hmmmmm.. what else... every tuesday we eat lunch with this really old member named Hermano Celoni, he´s the GOAT of references to missionaries. He gave us 5 references during lunch, and then we went back to do a family home evening with him and his sister and he gave us 2 more. We were actually able to teach 2 of those the restoration. He´s awesome. I invite you to give references to the missionaries in your ward. They will love you and put you in their letter home.
That´ll do it for this week, all is going good in the hood, still going strong. Thank you for your prayers, have a good week!
love,

Elder Anderson
