Family and friends!
1st I'm greatful for the people that wished me a Merry
Christmas through video and through email! Those of you that didn't...well, I
will forgive you this time, but I hope to hear from you guys the next
Christmas, haha! Well, I'm super greatful for the video that my family put
together! I got to hear from a lot of my family and 2 friends! Corbin and
Lindsey! Thank you all so much! I am very grateful for your love and time that
you guys took to help me have a great Christmas here in Guatemala!
I hope all of you guys had a great Christmas and I hope you
guys have a Happy New Year!
So my Christmas was more or less what I thought it was going
to be... haha I loved that we got to teach people the true meaning of Christmas
and that we felt the spirit a lot with our investigators but some members kind
of left us hanging! We had in total like 6 families that had invited us for a
Christmas dinner on the 24th and the 25th and of these 6 families, 2 families
were in their house at the time they told us to come...wow. Great
communication! They didn't call us to tell us that they weren't going to be
there or anything. We even asked some earlier that day and they told us yes.
But to be honest I wasn't mad, I think if that happened last year I wold have
been so mad, but I think that I have learned a lot of patience here in the
mission.
I'm grateful for this time of year that I have to celebrate
the birth of Jesus Christ.
Through the birth of Jesus Christ it opened the door to
everyone that they have the chance, and the opportunity to return unto Heavenly
Father. All throughout our lives we pass through problems, difficulties, and
adversities and a scripture explains it better than I can.
Job 5:18 says:
For he maketh sore, and bindeth up: he woundeth, and his
hands make whole.
After everything that
we go through, he heals, he makes whole, he restores us to a forgiven state.
Only he can do it.
I love you guys and I hope you guys have a great New Years!
Read Words of Mormon 1:8
