Merry Christmas Everyone! I hope it's a good one and that you all enjoy the spirit of this season.

We are excited for this Christmas here and it should be a good one! We are ready for some Tamales and ponche as well to get us through this Christmas in Guate. Tonight is the ward Christmas party and there will be food.. and where there's food, there's the Elders as well. 

We also have plans to take some investigators so that they can get to know the members.

Yesterday we did not have Pday and so right now we are pretty tired. We are going to have Pday on Christmas day! I am so excited to talk with my family. Everyone here in our area is leaving to go be with their families this week and the next, it makes me think of being with the family on Christmas, but if 40 minutes is what I get then I will take every second of it. And then after my companion and I are going to play some basketball because we found a basketball here in a members house! Wahoo! It's going to be a great Christmas!

We have been working hard to help remember Christ at this time of year! Last week we had our mission Christmas activity. It was great to get together and remember the importance of Christ in our lives. Our zone had the chance to do the nativity and everyone loved it because we added a little Chapin spice to it, or more of a Guatemalan style.

I hope you all have a merry Christmas, but more than anything remember who it is for. Remember that He was Born, lived and died for us. I love you all and hope you have a great Christmas, I know it's a common scripture but it has a strong message. John 3: 16 to 17

Love,
