Sooo...it's officially the Christmas
season here in Argentina. On December 8th everyone starts to set up
their trees and decorations and weird Santa dolls with stringy beards. I
think it's a catholic tradition...and Argentina kinda adopted it.
Crazies! I can't believe how quickly this year went by. Are ya'll
excited to talk to meee? :)
This week was
reallly long..but it was a good one. Remember Griselda and Miguel?
They're supposed to get baptized this weekend! Keep them in your prayers
please! They're amazing..the only problem is they moved to the area of
the Elders yesterday...puuucha. We're gonna keep visiting them until
their baptism and then we'll start to have visits with the Elders and
eventually they'll take over with the retention lessons. I'm gonna miss
visiting them...we go almost every single day. Such a great family:)
On Friday
we had zone meeting...Elder Ramos and Hermana Judd gave their last
testimonies. Soo weird. Elder Ramos was one of my first zone leaders in
Trelew...over a year later we were put in the same zone again. Elder
Kern is finishing this week too...he's the one from Provo that I met
playing volleyball in Wyview before the mission. How the time flies...I
can't believe that I hit the 15 month mark this week. NO PUEDE SER!!
Anyway...the zone meeting was great. I love being a missionary. It's the
best ever. I learn so much every single day.
On Thursday
we went out as a district to carol! We visited the menos activos and
invited them to church and a chirstmas dinner we're gonna have this friday
as a branch. The missionaries are in charge of the nativity...I got
stuck with the role of Mary. Normally I would be okay with that..but
this is not as simple as walking in with a fake baby and listening to
uncle David or uncle Russell read the christmas story...this is
acting...and there's a real baby involved. Acting is not my thing
people. Oh well...it should be good I guess.
Oh...so
here's mostly for dad...my district leader always tells me jokes to
keep me sane this transfer with everything going on...the other day I
told him the "what do a duck and a bike have in common?" he didnt' find
it very funny...I think it was cause he didn't understand.
Okay..well I have to go! Have a great week!! :) I LOVE YOU ALL! The church is trueeee:)
Hugs from Rio Gallegos!
