Hola! This is going to have to be a quick email. We actually had P-Day yesterday because a lot of the youth had the day off yesterday, so we had P-Day yesterday and played games with them pretty much all day. I am SUPER sore, but it was so much fun! We played soccer and volleyball and a bunch of other sports. It was a lot of fun!
So, my new year was pretty exciting! We had lunch at a member's house, then we went out checking up on our investigators, then we had a lesson with Maria Parra at 4, and she fed us too (we didn't expect that) and then we had dinner at another member's house! We had to be in house at 6:30, so we didn't get much done after that. But, we ate a lot and it was good! After we arrived home, we planned and cleaned for pretty much the whole night. We have a cleaning inspection tomorrow, so we have to be ready for that. And since we had P-Day yesterday and not today, we had to start early on our cleaning.
We found a new investigator on Sunday! He is really cool. He is named Alonzo. He is from Guatemala. We had a pretty good lesson with him. Right now he is going to an Apostolic church, but he let us in and we taught him! Before he was going to the Catholic church, but never really believed. But, in the year 2001, he was driving drunk and killed someone. So, he went to jail and there found the church he goes to now. He is a really cool guy and has lots of potential.
Another HUGE miracle. We were teaching Maria some day last week and she said she wanted to be baptized!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We were talking to her about baptism and all of a sudden she told us, "Yeah, I have been thinking about it and I want to be baptized in January sometime." OMJ!!! She went to church and brought her mom last Sunday too! Also, we were at her house for New Year's Eve for a lesson and she told us that she had been out shopping earlier for more dresses to have to wear at church so she could have a variety of things to wear to church! It's a Christmas miracle! We have a lesson with her tonight, so we are going to set a date with her!
Christmas was sweet. The rest of the day Elder Jensen and I just went out caroling with some members. It was awesome!
I received lots of candy and socks and ties. Like, 5 or 6 ties!
I haven't received any packages from Todd, but I probably will this Saturday! or tomorrow. idk
I didn't think too much of the end of the world... :( my mind was occupied with other stuff! What happened?! Did anything crazy happen? What did people say? We were at the library the day before it happened and there was this one guy asking around for the movie 2012 so that he could prepare himself for when the world ended jajajajajajajajajajaja!!!
Well, sorry for the short email, but I hope you have a wonderful week! Les amo!
