Well I already sent the pictures that basically describes
everything that we did this week! It was a great week! We finally got two
baptisms! But now i got white washed and I am here in la Cabaña- which is
really close. They say that there is a bad relationship with the members and
missionaries and so we are going to have to change that and work really hard!
My comp is Elder Walton. Gringo. And he has 3 transfers left on his mission. He
thinks that he will end here! Well see. Well things are going well. It’s really
hot! And it’s really humid. It’s like a weird hot. Like it doesn’t feel hot. It
just feels really heavy and I'
In Latin America they celebrate Christmas on the 24th at
night.
We had dinner with the Cruz family!
Asado, chicken, chorizo, pork, rice potato salad, and coke!!
=D it was really good!
The nativity that I bought for mom.
Christmas party with President
They play Pass the Present. Each Missionary was giving a Present. A story was read and they had to pass the present to the left when "left" was read in the story and to the right when "right" was read. They all loved it.
Pres. and Sis. Arye, his mission President
Well. We had to be in the pension (apartment) at 1030 on Christmas.
And at midnight the light off a bunch of fireworks. So we got home and i was on
Moroni 8. And so I finished the book of Mormon and stayed up to watch the
fireworks. We had bought cider. Haha! But here it’s all alcohol. And so we
bought the stuff for kids. And it was horrible haha! My comp says I just want a
little. But oh well. Haha! And then we lit off floating lanterns. We had 4 in
total. 2 with the Cruz family. And 2 at home. The last one like didn’t go very
well. It went down a little at first then raised up a little and then fell to
the floor. Well it was sitting down in the street and some kid comes driving up
and grabs it, throws it in his car, and takes off with our lantern haha! It was
really strange
Christmas day was our pday and so we went and played soccer.
Well it was weird because we were playing on buying something to eat after
playing and well... nothing was open... NOTHING. And so we started to call
members asking if we could eat with them... well everyone already had plans. And
so we went to the house and rested for a bit and then at 5 we went to the house
of the family we were going to call. They got mad at us that we didn’t call
them for lunch. Haha! But the Hermana made food and it was good! =D
Oh and then we made ham and cheese empanadas. At first we
fried them. And they weren’t that good. Then we found out that you aren’t
supposed to fry them so then we put the other batch in the oven and these came
out so much better!!
We had two baptisms on Sunday!
Well. Starting with Saturday we had the interviews! The one
with Wanda went very well. They finished really fast. And then we planned to go
fix my bike. And so DL and my comp went in bus to go see Nico. And me and Elder
Erickson (from Gilbert, went to highland) went to the bike shop. Well we got
everything fixed and we had time so we bought panchos. (Pancho is a hot dog). Then
my comp called and said they couldn’t find Nico. And so we went to the
girlfriends house and they were there, just about to leave, but we got um and
everything went fine with the interview. Then on Sunday everyone went to church
and got there early! We were so happy! And ya!
Nicolas Guillermo Mansilla
Wanda Sofia Guerrero.
I baptized Wanda and a kid that is not sure if he wants to
go on the mission baptized Nico. We are encouraging him to go on the mission!
=D
The girl in the like orangish dress is the girlfriend. And
the other girl is the cousin of the girlfriend and we have been working with
her because she’s less active!
The birthday of the daughter of a member.
And then we had a family home evening with a member family
and our convert and the mom that is coming back to the church! =D it was a nice
night! =D we got back late that night and I got yelled at... jk. I didn’t yell
but he was disappointed in us. Haha!
