Hola Familia y amigos!
so much singing this week. my voice hurts. we went and sang carols for lots
of people this week. we sang in a preschool and in a department store and in
contactos and knocking doors and went caroling for a ward activity. but carols
really help, people are able to feel the spirit and people who dont want to talk
to us are usually more open to ask us about the church or where we are from and
that can open up infinite possibilities for conversations about the
church.
we had intercambios this week! I went with hermana Zavallos de Peru to her
sector and i got to be in a trio with her and hermana Coombs! Hermana Coombs
companion had to fly to santiago to renew her visa. I discovered that trio
companionships are a lot of fun and i want a latina companion! (but i still love
hermana jenkins) hermana Zavallos is the cutest and so sweet and she taught me a
lot of important things. intercambios are awesome.
on thursday our ward had an once for christmas. we ate lots of food and
watched a folk dance group perform and there were a ton of people! it was so
much fun! and there were empanadas! our ward is the best on the planet.
friday, the stake threw the missionaries a surprise christmas party! there
was tons of food, cake, cookies, people sang christmas songs and a family from
our ward put on a comedy show haha. it was so fun and so sweet of the stake,
they even had every bishopric get a gift for their missionaries. we got a
penguin keychain and new watches!
on saturday we had a ward activity were we made cookies, decorated them and
went caroling at houses of some less active members and investigators. it turned
into just a missionary activity because the only people who showed up were us,
the elders, Juan and his sister. haha, but it was a lot of fun. the elders and
juan are our best friends.
mom i recieved my package on friday! and the stockings, im so excited to
open everything. the stockings are soooooo cute and thank you for the christmas
music and the garland! i love the garland, its hanging across our
ceiling.
John 3:16 "For God so loved the world that he gave His only Begotten
Son"
I know that Jesus Christ is the savior of the world, He is the only
begotten son of God the Father and I know that through Him we can gain life
eternal. I have felt his redeeming power and love in my life. I know that
through Him we can change, we can be better, and we can become like him. this is
my christmas testimony, in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.
love, Hermana Williams
