I hope you all had the best Christmas ever! Happy New YEar!
I got to talk to my family on Christmas and it was the best Christmas present ever! Man, I have th best family in the world. :)
ON Christmas eve we had dinner with a family - turkey and music and eggnog and empanadas and alfajores. Loved it!
All
day Chrsitmas Eve and Christmas we were running from house to house
sharing the story of Christs birth and singing Christmas carols! Its was
really quite lovely to help people feel the Christmas spirit adn see
them smile.
Chile was hopping at
night on Christmas eve! apparently Santa comes at midnight, and everyone
opens presents right then! There was music and lights and dancing. It
was pretty cool.
My comps birthday is the day after Christmas, so she got extra presents! haha so that was fun.
Its been really hot here lately! love it.
A
super inactive came to church! Milsy's grandma! She came! She was soooo
happy to be there. Our prayers were answered and we love that family so
much!
We had a big huge spiritual lesson with all the recent converts this
week. We watched a video and sang and talked and shared our testimonies.
It was lovely.
We have some new investigators (13 this
week!), including a Jehovahs Witness. She is adorable. One of the
investigators is a Catholic named Marcela, and she is amazing! she is
also absolutely in love with the USA, which is cool cuz most of the time
i just hear how much people dont like it. So it was really fun
listening to her and how much she wants to visit and stuff.
This week is New YEARS!!
We are gonna have dinner with an investigator family - Solis-Castro -
and then go to our pension at 11 to watch the fireworks from our roof!
So excited!
Anyway,
the quote i have for this week is from Elder Uchtdorf, which can be
compared with Moses chapter 1. "Compared to God, man is nothing. Yet we
are everything to God."
It is so true. I know God
loves me - I am His princess. And He loves all of you too. You are His
princes and princesses. Remember that! :)
LOVE YOU ALL! Miss you!
