I cant wait, Im so excited to talk to you TOMORROW.
This past week
has been the greatest! I am now understanding why Christmas in the mission is
so great. The spirit is just flowing.
So the day
before we had our big christmas program in the town square, my companion and
the other hnas in our zone remembered that they didn´t have a white shirt
to use for the program. So Hermana Turk said that she was going take us
shopping and then to lunch. I was going along to translate. :) And as we
were walking in the mall, she said that if the hermanas could get their shirts
all in one store and fast, then we would go to chilis for lunch! I about died.
My mouth was watering! And guess what....they did. It was one of the best
Christmas Presents Ever!!! So delicious. Its funny how the littlest things can
make you happy!
We had our
Christmas celebration with President and Hermana Turk on Thursday. It was great.
We had a devotional in the morning; which was incredible. They talked about
three of the best gifts that we have been given. 1. Book of Mormon 2. The Holy
Ghost and 3. Jesus Christ
The spirit
was so strong as some of the missionaries shared their testimonies. It was so
powerful. And it just kept getting better! Then we celebrated our goal and ate
cake before lunch. After lunch at Roky´s we were off to practice for the
Christmas Program. It was awesome. It was so fun to see Elders and Hermanas
that I haven´t seen in a while. I love them all!!!
I love this
time of year to remember our Savior and the example that he has set for me. I
can learn to become more like him everyday. He showed us the way. We can choose
everyday to follow the example of our older brother.
I am so
grateful for this gospel, and for the sacrifice of Jesus Christ. I know that he
suffered for my sins, afflictions, pains and struggles. He knows me and He can
help me be better everyday. I´m grateful
for this time of year; a time we have to remember him.
I love you
all my Peruvian heart!
Talk to you soon!!!
Les AMO!
