(12/15/14) Nutty For Christmas

We spent the week frantically taking buses to and from the captial. It was on the bus, off the bus. Pay money, sit crammed in with the nexts season's participants of biggest loser. But we got to watch the ocean sunrise twice what was pretty cool.We had our zone conference on wednesday and friday. Our president of the area seventy, E. Cornish, came to speak and instruct the mission on how to use the new 'el es la dádiva' program. We spent all day wednesday as a zone there, and then all day friday with the zone leaders and sister training leaders. You could definitely say I am fully capacitated and ready to spead some christmas cheer.

We have a bapstim coming this saturday. Hey name is Claritza Placencia but prefers just Elisa. She was one of two fechas we had going for this saturday, but Alfredo (remember him? whose sister passed away after the blessing) had some work conflicts and wasn't able to get the church assistance he needs in order to be baptized. He needs a little more time to recieve a real answer before he gets baptized anyway. But we're real excited, E. Graff is going to effect the ordinance and he will be one of 10 other people baptizing for the stake 'noche blanca' we're gonna have. 

Turns out *que drumroll* IMA STAYIN!!! So glad, I'm not done here. There some 2 or 3 families that we're pushing for to accept baptism. We've been doing so much preparation for christmas and it would be a big ole waste if all the fun got cut short. So, here goes the third transfer here, and E. Buehner's fourth. I'd imagine me staying another transfer too, because I doubt that they'd white wash zone leaders a second time, that's be crazy talk.

Looking foward to seeing your beautiful faces in what 10 days? 11 days? Haha whose counting!

love yalls
