this week was great the president changed our p day to tuesday instead of monday, because it was a vacation day yesterday so we could find more people at home. it was cool. today with the zone we went to the mine of Lota it was good, a little over priced but it was cool and it was really interesting to see how they used to live and the things that they had to do to survive. i would have died if i had to work in the mine i couldnt stand up the whole time i had to stay hunched. but it was cool. we found a lot of great people this week and baptized again which is always a great week. i had interviews with the president, it was my last interview before i leave which is crazy. it was great President is a great guy and so nice he is always so fun to talk to. Arauco is good but in the comite that we have with the branch president there was a rebelion. so me and my companion were there with president and two other members. the other members both rebeled and one of them said that he wasnt going to go to arauco anymore and was going to go to lota to church. it was a pretty intense situtation but now it is a lot calmer, but it got pretty heated for a while. i just tried to stay neutral but it was definetly an interesting experience. we are working really hard and having lots of success it has been great. it is starting to get pretty cold and rain more often. the rain here is pretty intense. so all is well i am doing great. elder brimhall
