Hey
Family! Hope you guys are having a great Christmas time!
This week
was both awesome, but also really slow. Estela wasn´t baptized yet,
unfortunately she had to work. But we are planning a baptism really special for
this Sunday, I am excited and think that everything will work out. Conference
with President was awesome. I learned tons, especially about how planning makes
a huge difference in everything we do. I loved being able to feel the Spirit
that President has. I was also able to see a bunch of old friends. Everyone I
think is doing pretty well. I got your packages! I am loving the 12 days of
Christmas! haha Great idea. My comp says super thanks for the package. He was
really excited. So it might take a while for you guys to get letters or
packages now. For some reason almost all of the póst offices in our area
closed, something to do with not having money. I think there is still one open,
but it is a long ways away. So don´t worry if letters don´t arrive soon, I am
working on it. Tell the ward thanks for the Christmas notes, I loved them.
haha. Anyways I had an awesome division with our ZL this week. W Ferreira is Brazilian,
he has one of the strongest testimonies ever. We went to this families house,
not in my area, and the dad was just arguing with us. I thought that things
would never work out. But his daughter arrived. They have been teaching them
for a while but no one was progressing. Out of no where the daughter says
"I got my answer" apparently she was in her room one day, looked up
and Said "God Is the Mormon religion the right path for me?" Right at
that moment the Dad yelled to her mom in another room "It is
Woman!!!" And that was her answer! haha I have to say best answer I have
ever heard.
Besides
this it was a bit of a slow week. I am going to be able to Skype next week on Christmas,
40 minutes just with you and dad. The others can be there, but I can´t talk to
them. Sorry I don´t make the rules, just follow them. haha I will call around 9
to 11, just be ready. Besides this everything is pretty normal here!
Anyways
glad to hear things are good back home. The advent calendar was a great idea
sounds like!
Give
everyone a hug for me and a Merry Chirstmas! Love you guys a ton!
