Mejor semana del Mundo!‏

FAMILLYYYYYYY!

WOW we had an amazing Christmas. I am so incredible blessed o workhere in this area. The people are so special and I love them so much. I have no clue where to even start. Oh, well weare writing in the gas station today... The furniture store didnt have dinternet yesterday, or today. SO we tried our luck here and ahi comienza la lucha con la maquina.

Wednesday we had a group activity. Just so humble and happy. Wee sang hymns together and just had a good time. I was so happy to be with all of the people I love so much and pass Christmas with them.

After that, we had a district meeting (we are a little district o 4 missionaries because we are so ar away from everyone else..) there under the mango tree in the church property. We spoke of the atonement of our Savior. HOW I LOVE THE ATONEMENT! I know that Christ as born and died for us. I love him so much. Elder pacheco asked me that which I do to show my gratitud for that wonderful sacrifice that Christ carried out for me. I have been deply pondering that question so muhc.

THat afternoon we passed for the Recalde familyi (the family of Mirco). THis time of th year is so hard for them because the 24th a feaw years ago pased away the father, and the 28th passed away the litltle brother. We sang with them and shared with them about the atonement. It was a lesson purely guided by the spirit. 

That afternoon we had ASADO with the Diaz family. I would never choose to pass Christmas in any other way. I love it here and love these families.

MOMMA AND DAD!!!!!! Thank you so much for the packages! We loved the beanies and the missionay stockings! I was so happy to receive them when we arrived in CLorinda for the zone Christmas conference the 26th. THank you so much :)

Our double birthday was the best. 65 people arrived to church, and I just was on the edge of tears the whole meeting to be all squished together with these people that I love. The sacrament took probably 15 minutes or more because there is only one priesthood holder that passed. Oh it was beautiful.

FELIZ NAVIDAD!!!!!‏

Family!!!

Writing late because of internet.. This area is amazing, and I am so incredibly blessedto work here. But boy is comunication a little tough..
We changed pday to today because of a little complication with the baptism of Valiente that we will be having this Saturday. Everything is amazing and he is so excited to take this great and sacred step in his life.

This week has been amazing. We have been working hard with Valiente and helping him that he may make these important steps in his life. I just feel so blessed to work here. I dont think I have ever felt more love towards anyone more in my life than I do now towards these people in the colony. They are amazing, and never want to leave this area.

Veronica was finally confirmed. Sorry, I am all over the place, and I know that I am throwing new names all over.

I am so excited for Christmas. It is so much different here... its hot, they celebrate on the 24th instead of the 25th, but I am with some of the people I have loved the most in my whole life. Tomorrow we are having a group activity. Everyone is just so excited. We always make sure that we create spiritual experiences every time we are around others-- there are so many people that only are edified spiritually in these moments. 25th--SKYPE WITH MOMMAAAA!!!!! 26th-- zone activity! Asado, gift exchange, and Ill get mail from moma finally :)

I love you all! Focus in the Savior in this time of the year! HE is the gift!

Porque de tal manera amó Dios al mundo que ha dado a su hijo unigenito, para que todos que en Él cree no se pierda, mas que tenga vida eterna.

Juan 3:16

I dont remember how is goes in english, but I love sharing that scripture with others in the streets, in contacts. Because it is SO TRUE. God loves us. He sent his son. Our Savior lives!
