La Ligua semana 15

Why hello to everyone in this wonderful Christmas Eve. I hope that all of you have just been fine and dandy in this lsat week! Things have been GREAT here! and we have even been surprised by a few gifts!!!

We also had a week of LOTS of traveling!!! On tuesday we went to quillota.... TWICE, once in the morning and once at night. jaja thats 3 hours of the day just traveling! haha but of course we couldnt just do it once... jaja o well!! 

Miercoles (wednesday) we had our Christmas conference (for more pictures visit http://misionvinadelmar.blogspot.com/) and it was SO AWESOME!!! All the practices and all the many activities that we did were awesome and we ate great! A couple of hermanas from Peña Blanca were helping, and so I went and said thanks and hello to one of them that remembered me! jaja YAY!!! and we got new mission journals that are totally sweet! and it was just awesome!!! So that made for a great day!!!! And we came back and visited a family that is TOTALLY awesome! I love them so much, but they havent come to church for a while and the mother (The rebel) finally said "maybe it is time that we go to church again." and two of their kids are not baptized, so hopefully we will be passing by there more!!! 

Also, the less active lady whos litle girls are just GORGEOUS and my best friends, just so you know, she came to church FINALLY and her husband (who is not a member) also came!!! I was so happy and the little fernanda (6) totally rembered me! YES!!! Also, Karen y Mauricio went to some of their wedding prep stuff on wednesday and they said that everything that could have gone wrong DID, but they still went through because they know it is the best they can do!!! and then on friday we got their invitations and they love them! So it made for a bunch of happy people!!! 

Then we also had interchanges with a the elderes in Cabildo. They are doing GREAT and I was really surprised because the Elder I was with is a jokester, but when we got to serious matters, all went well and he was really mature about how he treats the situations. I was VERY impressed!!! 

So it has been a great week! We just got done with a zone activity, we went and played football and ate shish-ka-bobs (sp?). It was pretty fun, just really unorganized, and so we lost a lot of time!! But no problems, all shall be well! and we had a good time together!!! 

Bueno, I hope that everyone has a WONDERFUL Christmas; one that will always be in your book of memories!!! I love you all and remember to share the love of Christ with those around you! Serve a little more than you are comfortable, I promise you will not regret it!!! Chao!!!
