Alright I have realized that if I don´t answer the questions first in the email I never answer them so I am just letting you know right now that I have gotten one package that had the popcorn and a way sweet rvca shirt in it. I don´t know if the envelope had anything in it besides a letter and pictures because when I got it it was opened up with a razor knife and all I found was the letter and pictures. If there was anything else in it, I didn´t get it. I don´t know why but all the packages that I get have been opened up in the customs so I have no idea how much is actually getting through. The popcorn and the Ensign are amazing though. I have been studying all the talks lately and I have realized how much more I am learning now. I love being able to go back and read the words of the modern day prophets and meditate on the teachings that they have for us in our day.
This past week was full of many great things. We spent up until yesterday afternoon working over in Valle de Uco with the zone leaders and a few of the other missionaries over there. I felt like I took more than a few steps into Bolivia. Every person in the entire city was bolivian and like 15% of them only spoke quetchua, which is nothing like spanish. It was a little frustrating, but I was amazed at the amount that the other missionaries taught me as I was working with them. I feel so blessed to be able to serve the other missionaries here in the mission and the memories are always something that I will keep close to my heart.
Last night we had the yearly Christmas party in our ward in Godoy Cruz and it was amazing. There were so many inactive member that brought friends to the acitivty that it was just incredible. There were members that recently got baptized in Utah that came and another that got baptized in Buenos Aires that are all just bringing in the friends. It is a huge miracle and the biggest miracle of the night was that we found out that towards the end of January Cristian and Yemina are getting married!! They finally have been touched by the spirit and have gotten over their worldy desires and want to follow Jesus Christ!! I was so happy to hear that news that I almost fell down in shock. It was amazing. On the other hand, the dad of Andrea passed away this week which is an amazing opportunity to touch her heart and see the importance of baptism with her kids. The miracles are just flowing right now and I am loving it. I
I hope you all have a great week and that you enjoy this amazing Christmas Spirit. I love you all!
