The youth in my ward are beyond INCREDIBLE. Five of them organized a Noche de Hogar (Fmaily Home Evening), invited 2 nonmembers, invited my companion and I over to teach them, and all this by themselves. The lesson went so good, and they are now 2 of our new investigators!
On Friday we woke up at 230AM for our zone´s Actividad Navideña! We staggered to the church, got on a bus, and headed to the city to do a Temple Session! President Brough and his wife were even in the session with us! After the temple, we went to El Frutal to the Meetinghouse there to play sports, have lunch, and a devotional. Lunch was awesome! The cooks from the CCM came with ham, turkey, stuffing, cranberries, rolls, green beans, and brownies for us. Best lunch I have had in weeks. After lunch we had a devotional with President Brough, his wife, and daughter. After everything, we got our packages (yes I got all my packages!), and went home to work for the rest of the day. We had a really good day that day, with 8 new investigators and 10 lessons with a member!
There was one really sad thing that happened this week. We were supposed to be baptizing Maury, Keler´s brother, on Sunday after church. But as we were walking to the church for his baptism, we got a call from the Elders that they couldn´t find him. We called him and he was in Zona 1 (The capital). He said he was with his mom, but his mom was in his house. So...we don´t really know what happened. We are hoping for this Saturday now as a date for him, but we aren´t sure what will happen!
MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE. It is really weird to not be at home for Christmas, and especially to be in tropical weather for it instead of freezing conditions! I love you all and am so grateful for you, and want you to know that I am happy here.
By the way, my companion and I had lunch at a member´s house yesterday, and her daughter is an RM from the Las Vegas Mission, and was one of my instructors in the CCM. It was really weird eating lunch at her house. It was like going over to one of your high school teacher´s houses. Weird.
Anyways, I am looking forward to talking with my family tonight! Love you all and stay safe!
