Hola todos!
Merry early Christmas! Things are just rolling
right along down here in Granada. Life is just a blur. But it is a really
awesome blur. The work is going well down here. We found two new families this
week and it looks like they might be progressing, so let us see where it goes.
We have a Baptism on the 25! That looks like it is good to go and things are
picking up with the new year rolling around and I am beginning to figure this
missionary life out. So hopefully more success will follow.
This week we have a
Christmas lunch with President Brown. We are going to a fancy hotel so that
should be fun. Speaking of food, here are some things I ate that you didn’t
this week. Pig foot soup, what I believe was duck ribs, and some strange root.
All good times.
Today I also went to Managua (Elder Arevalo had to take an
English test) and I got to eat Burger King.
It was so good. It was truly
exciting. It is still really hot and humid. Apparently, it gets even worse in
April and March.
Fun thing that happened this week: The district where I am at
had a Christmas devotional on Saturday night, and the missionaries in our zone
did a skit and spiritual thought. They needed a Santa Clause for the skit and
guess who got chosen? The only big white guy for miles. So now all the kids in
the district know me as Santa Clause. It was a fun thing and the district liked
it so there you go. Overall life is great here! I am really excited for
Christmas, and I hope all of you are too! It really is a great time of year!
This Christmas I would challenge you all to think about the Savior, and why he
was born (answer John 3:16), and then think about what this means for you! And
then share His light! Be a light to all those around you and try to do the
things that Christ would do! I know that when we remember Him and try to be like
Him we will be happy, even joyous, and there will be a new light in our life! I
invite all of you to come closer to Him! He is the Savior of the world! He was born
for all of us! Use His grace! It is there for all the people in this world! I
testify that He lives!
Thank you all for everything you do! Have a great
Christmas and a great year! Feliz Navidad!
