Hey familia!

This week was pretty good. We had a lot of success, and met a lot of really cool people. Things are going pretty great here…which means I will probably not be here for very much longer. I am kind of feeling like I will get transfered this next tansfer. 🙁 I will be sad, but it will be for the best. I guess. But Sister A. will take really good care of this area for me when I leave.

Monday: We taught a family the Plan of Salvation, and it went really well. They are really cool, and they really want to get an answer that it is true, but they are expecting something big, like what happened with Joseph Smith. We explained to them that we usually don’t receive answers like that, and that Joseph Smith was a very special case. He still thinks that it should be something bigger than what we have told him he will be.

Tuesday: We had a really cool lesson with a family, and they were really accepting of the gospel. And then, like usual, we got interrupted by something right in the middle of the first vision lesson. 🙁 Satan always tries really hard at that part of the lesson to interrupt and get people distracted, and help the spirit leave. But we will keep working with them.

Wednseday: Nada paso (nothing happened)

Thursday: Nada paso (nothing happened)

Friday: We found out that Elder E. is getting transferred to another area, and we are going to get an elder that was serving in Peru, but he came home for medical reasons, and now he got reassigned to Texas. Also, we went to a wedding in the evening. I wish I could have taken pictures, but my camera SD card didn’t have any space, so I couldn’t. 🙁 But it was beautiful. She is a member of our ward, and she married a white guy that speaks spanish, so they had the ceremony in spanish, and all of the white people didn’t know what they were saying. Later on after that, we went to teach A__ and M__. We reviewed the plan of salvation with them, and A__ knew it so well! We were so surprised, but it was awesome, and we also found out that they are really married…which never happens! We are so excited, because they can get baptized without very many problems.

Saturday: Nada paso (nothing happened)

Sunday: Nada paso really (nothing happened)

Mami!

I’m glad you had a good week. Things are pretty great here. That is way cool you met Jenny Phillips! She is probably way cool to meet. ( I told Kelsey that when I met Jenny Phillips, that I told her ‘I wish we were best friends!’, Jenny laughed and said ‘I do too!'”) We were actually listening to her cd the other day. I’m glad you are still staying busy with church and stuff. That is also way cool you are speaking on Christmas Day. Then I will get to talk to you about it when I call later in the day. 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 Anyway, thank you so much for the Christmas package! I got it on Thursday, and I was so excited. I especially liked the scriptures on them. They were super cute. Also, I didn’t open any of them, because I am saving them for Christmas. If you could possibly do this, (this is just a request) if you could have people that come to the family parties write me letters about what is going on and stuff. That is basically the only other things I want for Christmas. I just want some letters from family. No one ever writes me except you. 🙁 But if you could do that that would be fantastic. Also, I just want to thank you for everything you do for me, and the love and support that you give me. I really sometimes wish I could be home for Christmas, but then I just remind myself that next year I will be. 🙂 🙂 Tell everyone I say hi, and that I miss them all! ! ! ! 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂

Papi,

Natasha is so sweet isn’t she?!?! I miss that little chickadee. I think y’all should send me pictures of her like at Christmas time and stuff. 🙂 🙂 🙂 I kind of feel like this isn’t really the holidays because I am not there will all of you and the rest of the family. But it’s all good. Things are great here, and to be honest, I would rather be here than there. Even though I miss everyone. Being a missionary is so rewarding, just in different ways. 🙂 🙂 Anyways, I gotta go now.

I love you all!!!!! Be good, and all that!

Love, Kelsey
