Week 84 (Dec. 25th, 2017)

Alright so this week was incredible! Its our first week in the area and it is going so much better than all of the other first weeks in any other area. We have been working like crazy every day just trying to find and teach and invite to baptism. This week we found 48 new people to teach and I´m sure we invited at least 40 of them to attend church and be baptized. Its been so great that we have been working hard and are really seeing the results of the work. 

On Saturday night we had 23 people who said they were going to come to church. It was great that they all wanted to come and feel the spirit of the gospel. We had a special Sunday this week with a Christmas party and then we had lunch after the meeting. We had a lot of members there, although it was our first week all of the members tell us that we have a ton of members attending right now and that all is going well. 

Also with Christmas it was super hard to sleep. The tradition here is that they stay up until midnight waiting for Christmas and get super drunk and listen to a lot of loud music. The neighbors that live right in front of us were listening to music until about 5 in the morning. My companion and I stayed awake talking until something like 2 in the morning because there was just no way to sleep with all of the music. Definitely a Navidad I will never forget. 

I attached some pictures, mostly just us preparing for Christmas. 

Any way love you all!! Merry Christmas!!!!
