I'm grateful for this season!!! As far as I've seen, people here don't really do much different during Christmas. They do decorate stuff, but that's about it. Plus it's HOT so that's weird! BUT, I've got a big ol' fiery christmas spirit burning inside of me so it doesn't even matter! Christmas is awesome! And the meaning of it is even awesomer! I'm grateful to know that Jesus Christ is my Savior and that he was born to redeem the souls of all of us! Todos! I apologize if I am not making total sense. I'm translating from Spanish in my head now, which is kinda cool but I think it might make my emails sound like a child wrote them :-O
This week we were able to visit an investigator who wants to be baptized but he is having a hard time with the Palabra de Sabiduria (word of wisdom). We have shared with him the great blessings, health-wise and spiritually, that will come when he keeps this commandment, but that doesn't mean that it will be easy. He is strong and has real desires to keep the commandments of God, so I feel good about his future, but if any of you have experienced this or have some advice, send it my way!!!. Thank you :)
I'M PUMPED TO TALK TO THE FAM NEXT WEEK! Hopefully your cute faces can reach halfway across the world through cyberspace! That will be a happy christmas present. Families are the best. So great that they can be together forever. I'm grateful I get to share that sweet tidbit of truth everyday for the next little while!
Ciao! Hugs! Remember why we celebrate Christmas and try to make someone's life a little bit better this week! and every week!
Next letter I'll make sure I can send pictures!
Love!
