We had a little bit of a trying week, but it was also one of the best weeks. But in the end Guillermo got baptized. We also got to hear that the dad, the brother Delgado who got baptized recently will be able to baptize his own daughter because she just turned 8. Its always so amazing to see the progression of the converts.
(I cant send you pictures today but i will have to do that the next week.)
We had our christmas conference and it was super awesome! Really uplifting and we had a white elephant gift exchange too. I recieved, in the end, a cup with a straw for mate (mate is this herbal drink that they drink here.)
We went to the Delgado family and passed some time with them for Christmas, and then we went to the Toledo family. They made us some staeak and we ate good. It was really nice to feel the support and love of the ward here on this day. It wasn't a hard day but I enjoyed spending this time with some people from the ward.
We got transfers. Elder Damron went to Tucuman and I recieved a Brasilian companion. His name is Elder Santana, and he just left his training. He seems really cool and I'm gonna try to learn a little bit of Portuguese with him! haha
I am still loving the mission, I felt at peace on Christmas, and I'm grateful for all the support I recieve. I'm so blessed to have such amazing people in my life that help me to stay strong. I'm so grateful for all the things that we go through. Everything that happens to us is for a reason and I am hoping to continue to learn from the good, the bad, and the ugly.
Short little thing. It rains a lot here, and it comes in like flash floods. We just got rained on hard, and we are drenched.. haha. Through it all I wouldn't change anything.
