Hey familia!!!
Hermana LeBaron and I have been taking advantage
of this Christmas season and singing carols to the people we meet when
we're tracting. People are a lot more receptive to the gospel around
this season. We also like showing the youtube "The Spirit of Christmas"
at our dinner appointments. It's really touching, and reminds us to
focus on Christ. If you have a few minutes I highly recommend looking it
up.
It was really depressing this week because one of our most golden
investigators and her little daughter went into a women's shelter
because her husband was abusing her and went to jail. She still came to
church yesterday and called us after and told us that she still wanted
to get baptized, that she knew it was true. It's really a sad situation
because now her "husband" she was living with is in jail. She has so
much faith and keeps testifying to us that everything will work out with
God's help. She really inspires me because she wants so bad to do
what's right.
We also have a fairly new investigator, Nicolas who started coming
to church even before we started teaching him (that usually never
happens!). He is a really humble guy with one leg- he walks around with
crutches wherever he goes. This last lesson we had with him he bore his
testamony about the church without knowing he was bearing his testimony.
He told us he used to study with the Jehovah Witnesses and go to church
with them but now that he's started going to church with us he's really
felt a peace and ease at church. He has a lot of friends and support at
church and he's planning on getting baptized the end of this month.
I love serving the Lord!

i am training!
Querida familia,
Hola!!!! This transfer just flew
by and the tremendo trio is breaking up! Hermana Malekamu and Hermana
Bailey are leaving and I am training.
It's gonna be another great transfer!
So the Mondragon family went to
get their marriage license but didnt have the right identification so
now we have to move back Glendy's baptismal date. We're trying to help
them stay excited still, because this is just a little stumbling block.
It was really awesome because Alexander bore his testimony yesterday in
Sacrament meeting and you could just see the change and happiness he has
now. This gospel is remarkable.
The Enamorados came to church too! We usually go wake them up in
the morning by banging on their door and throwing rocks at the window,
but yesterday morning they were already up. They have such a cute
family. The only problem is their not married either!
Thanks for all your love and prayers!
Have a great day! :))
