I'm on the 11
week of training and I have to lead basically everything we do. My comps been
hyping up this week since my first day with him. I had no idea what I was doing
half the time but I learned a lot.
First recap of
funny dumb things this week.
-I straight just
ran into a metal pole and it made that sound like I'm the cartoons. Super
funny.
- member fed us
mole enchiladas (gross food) right after talking about how bad it is for our
stomach and how gross it is.
-we watched Polar
Express at our Christmas party.
-we absolutely
killed it in the ward and mission talent show with our perfect dance to in poco
loco.
Any ways this
week was awesome. We started CORBETT week with some solid contacting after an
appointment fell through. I had no idea what to do so we said a prayer and just
started in a good direction. We started talking to this young man named John
going in to his house with a dog. He was pretty interested so he sat down with
us and we taught him about finding spiritual answers through the book of
Mormon. He was super in to it and we both felt that we needed to talk to him
about baptisms. He committed to baptism and is pretty excited.
Then we went to
an appointment with a cute couple we contacted on the convi. We had a rough day
and were lacking energy but they are just the best people ever. Silvia is super
pregnant with their first child and Fernando is working and studying right now
so they don't have a lot of money. They still went and bought us cookies to eat
while we talked and warmed up hot coco. They are nervous for a new baby so we
taught the restoration of the gospel and how this church is the best place to raise
and cultivate a strong happy family. We all felt the spirit super strong
teaching us all the truthfulness of the message. We asked Fernando to offer the
last prayer. He was a lil nervous but he gave a beautiful prayer and again we
all felt the spirit super strong and after he said he felt really good. We
explained that that's the holy ghost and it's telling home he's doing what's
right. He asked if we do marriages (they aren't married, very common here). He
also said he's not babtised out of nowhere. I love that couple so much. They
are just awesome people already.
Christmas is this
week and hope everyone has an awesome Christmas remembering the why of this
season. I invite everyone to watch the Christ child video for the first time or
again this week. It's so beautiful and just shows the humility in his story and
his life.
Siempre hasta
luego y feliz navidad y prospreo año y felizidad.

I have so many
more stories and thing I want to share each week about how my testimony has
grown in Christ. The apostles felt pretty similar too. John 21:25" And
there are also many other things which Jesus did, the which, if they should be
written every one, I suppose that even the world itself could not contain the
books that should be written. Amen" and amen John I can't write them all
cause he does to much good in my life each and every day.
I know that
Christ lives. He is the only way back to God. I testify that he is our savior.
He love each and every one of us and gave his life. His entire earthy life,
from birth to death, all for us. All for other. I know this things because the
holy ghost has made it manifest and I have felt his expiacion and his love very
powerfully in my life. Remember him always.
Merry Christmas
family.
