What a week! We baptized Eugenia!! It was great! She was really an awesome investigator and totally ready. She had a friend that took her to church about a month ago and gave her a ton of copies of the Liahona which she´s read most of. It was awesome. Really such a great experience. The service was supposed to start around 8 p.m. but didn´t actually start till around 9. it was late. But we got it done, so thats really all that matters!! haha
So this week in pradera was pretty good. We taught a lot of lessons and have about 5 or 6 people that can get baptized this month. As long as all goes well. The biggest problem is that lots of people actually aren´t married. it´s hard. so we have to marry two couples this week. Luckily we have an awesome lady in our area thats super rich and dedicates her life to helping missionaries, so she drives us and our investigators to an area called taxco, in Guerrero. There´s a judge there thats a member and she marries people fast and cheap. So hopefully i´ll be going there this week to marry two couples. I´m Pumped!!! We only had 3 people in church yesterday, kind of lame. But not too bad. A lot of people say they´ll do stuff. Then don´t. It´s lame. But we do have some really great investigators that are progressing really well. December is going to be a great month!!!
So picutres, The first is of Eugenia at her baptism! yay! that me in white and my companion Elder Collins, Eugenia, and her daughter Avi. (like abby) We´re teaching her too, but she´s not as awesome as her mother. But she´s cool. Hopeuflly she´ll get baptized too.. pretty much all the others are me and my companion and my zone leaders, Elders Wilson and Miller at Some ruins called Xochilcalco!!! They were awesome!! huge. and awesome. We might go back in a few weeks. Super fun. I love good Pday activites they´re great! I´ll send some more in other emails today.
WEll the christmas season is kicked off here in mexico! it´s really a big thing! But not really for Christ... it´s for the Virgin Marry. They should call it Marrymas, not christmas. Cause sadly he doens´t play a huge part. But! Thats why i´m here, to stomp out apostacy at all cost! and virgins... yup. Thats mexico
We have our big christmas party soon, i´m pretty excited. Elder Collins, the ZL´s and I are doing a cool musical number, we´re going to have a 70 come. i´m pumped! We´re doing Silent night, but with a music and the spoken word verse with just humming, reading the birth of christ from Isaiah. Like Motab. WE´re cool. Yup. Well thats about all I have to report this week! I¨m loving mexico! It´s awesome! I just miss the snowy awesomeness of utah. But i´ll be there eventually. so no problem. I love you all soooooo much!!!
