Hello again my beloved friends and
family. what a fun week we had celebrating an American holiday in a Spanish
culture. Since the wonderful Spaniards don't have a clue about what Thanksgiving
is, we decided to try to enlighten and introduce it to as many people as we
could... sadly we weren't very successful, but that didn't keep us from
gathering together as a family... well as a district... which is basically my
family out here.... and feasted upon turkey and potatoes... wait a second, that's
how y'all in Merica ate your way through turkey day. we definitely celebrated
it by going straight up Chinese food!! As different as it was, we all felt
right at home. Eating together, laughing, feasting, arguing, and a sweet
investigator went all out and made us a pumpkin pie. What a holiday to
remember. It was a day of giving thanks, and full of love and spirit. Hope your
guys thanksgiving was just as good as mine.
Now i know what everyone else is
wanting to ask me. And to answer the question, no we did not have another
baptism this week. But hey 2 in a row is great and they are still faithful
converts who still just love the gospel. Hermana Gillette and i are still
pluggin along, teaching families and preparing them to be live worthy enough to
dwell in the presence of our loving heavenly father again. the work is still
moving forward, and i am growing stronger in my faith every day. It makes a
huge difference having an amazing companion at my side to lead and guide me
with her strong example. Oh how i love my companion. We get along great, and we
build off each other and we know how to teach learn and grow through the
spirit. We love the people, the work, our savior, and each other. Couldn't have
asked for a better place to serve, or for a better companion.
this sums up our relationship up in a
single pic.....
Well happy December, hope you all stay
warm with that winter air and snow. I don't have to worry about that in the
slightest. I just have to truck around in my rain boots and umbrella. but I
love and miss you all!!! Until next week!!
Love,
Hermana Stilson
