Mission to Split, etc.

Yeah I can´t believe i´m a week short of 1/4 way done too...its gone by so fast and honestly its because i´m always busy. My companion E. Chaca goes home in 2 weeks! craziness!
So this husband, Santiago is progressing extremely well, the only problem is that he is having troubles getting his off day changed from thursday to sunday so that he can come to church. Once he gets that fixed we´ll be able to baptize him. So that is pretty awesome!
We have another family who is seriously considering waiting until their son gets back from his mission before they get baptized. But at least they want to be baptized. They are basically members just not baptized. So we´ve been meeting with them once a week or so to try to grow a desire to be baptized a little bit faster than that. I´m really not sure why anyone would want to procrastinate their baptism if they really knew how important it is in their lives.
We had a whole family, minus the father who is never home, come to church on sunday! well they came to sacrament meeting anyways. But they really liked it!
We also found an investigator who is l ike 35 years old or so, and has been listening to the missionaries off and on since he was 15. He has ton of wordly knowledge about the church, has spent a lot of time researching the church on the internet and has found a lot of ´how to combat the mormon missionaries´ type websites. He has a lot of good beliefs that line up with the church´s, and a few cooky ones as well. But we wrote down his questions and we are trying to answer them the best we can.
Tomorrow the mission splits and we lose E. Kunz and idk about E. Rogers to the mission Cuzco. So kinda sad. This friday we also have another multizone meeting for the new president and probably an interview with him. If you could get any info about E. Rogers for me that´d be awesome!
Love you
Elder Patrik Connole
