December 4, 2017 ~ Week 70

Hey Mom! This week absolutely flew by. It was pretty good though. We found out some bad news. It's gonna take a while for Yireht (Our 8 year old investigator) to get baptized, because her uncle (the only active member in her family) is moving to Santiago next month, in the north of the country. So noone will be left here to take her to church. So we're going to try to work with her mom to see if we can reactivate her, but we'll see...

Also this week, we found out that one of our investigators is moving to the capital. His stepdad is abusive, and so they're planning on moving while he's away. So that's kind of sad. That's something that I've come to be so grateful for. A family that's together, and loving. That's definitely a gift from gospel living. So many families, not just here, but the families of some of my companions are so torn apart. People have 10 children, but its very rare for people to have 4 or more with the same spouse. I'm so grateful for a loving mother and father who teach and provide for their children.

Sorry that my letters are always so short, haha, I just don't really know what to talk about. My weeks are usually about the same without much variation. Things really are great though! I'm super excited to talk to you guys on Christmas! Only 3 more weeks!!! We'll see if I'm in the same area though, because transfers are on the 19th.

I hope that you all have the best week ever though! I love you so much!!!
