Riding around all day on horses. Coool.
Need the fence to get up

The last few weeks have been busy, busy, busy in the ministry. Weather is still amazing, there's not many days that aren't blue sky. I'm growing to love this little town and its very laid back people. At the moment we have our CO's visit which is really cool. They are from the USA and have been here for 45 years in chile so I heard a few awesome stories from them about their preaching and travelling throughout the whole country. But not much else has been happening just been enjoying myself and I'm realising there's a lot more trip to come, but at the same time, time is going by so quickly!!!

and a manly BBQ

The FOOD here is so good so I had a lot to live up to with this lasagne. Lucky Pato helped me. And we made it with some NZ flavour! Some mixed veges and a packet of flavour from NZ

......falta agua quizas??

HUGE boat washed up from the tsunami.

Super full kingdom hall for the
memorial

The night of the memorial was a big one. We had 63 people attend and I think there were about 15 standing up. More than double the publishers came. Pablo gave the talk and there's Patrico and me up the front. Had churrascos after at home. A churrasco is an unbelievably massive insanely yummy burger bigger than a dinnerplate. Normally just with tomato, cheese, real mayonnaise, onions and chopped up thin steak. So so good. In the end, a really good night.

Privilege of passing the emblems!! Check out the mic chord

Witnessing in Chillan! An awesome day

 So here's our project that we went nuts working on for about 2 days and we transformed it into brand new. Pablo's old foozeball that he bought in 1999. Painted the teams Chile and NZ.

Finished!! And Pablo is an actual pro at this. So i get wasted
every time.

At the little market in Dichato



12 of us blowing out the territory during the CO's visit.
Finished all the territory in 4 days. Heaps of new return visits



Giving a presentation with Daivis in Chillan

On the 25th of March there was an earthquake. Like a 6.1 where we were. We were in the meeting in another town while it happened. Wow it was scary because we didn't know how big it was gunna get. It lasted about a minute too so it seemed like ages. It started off like a really small rock like in a boat but then then started getting stronger and stronger. They told me after thats exactly how the big one in 2010 started so no wonder all the brothers and sisters were scared. Awesome too feel one but I hope not one too big!!
