Como los otro cartas por me voy a empezar en español. Mirian va a ser bautizada siete de Deciembre y ella está muy listas para su bautismo. Ella da nos comida este pasado Sábado entonces todos los misioneros encantan ella y la comida de Honduras.
Well this week hasn't been super crazy. We're continuing our progess with Miriam and she is super ready to be baptized on December 7th. This week I had the opportunity to have intercambios con Elder Montague who is one of our Zone Leader's companion. We went to Madrid switched, ate pizza, and headed to Aluche for my Residency Papers. That pretty much took up the whole day. It was too bad because we had to cancel a few of our appointments and we weren't able to get like any missionary work done at all. Elder Montague reminded me of Elder Forsyth, super nice.
Elder Neilsen and Elder Good had a baptism this Saturday and we invited Miriam and another investagator named Yemi (Jamie). They both really liked it and had a couple questions about the process in general. So that was fun and the Hermanas in this area have a baptism this Friday so hopefully we can get all of our other investagators to come to this one and be able to baptize them as well!
Oh so we have this lady from Mexico in our ward who says she's been baptized. However in our "Principios del Evangelio" class this week she was asking super strange questions. She was wondering why we needed two books to know the fullness of the gospel and that the Bible contained all we need to know to live with Heavenly Father... Elder Fausett and I looked at each other and wondered if she had ever had the lessons or if she just said she was down to get baptized and was baptized then ditched by the Missionaries. Haha we also had a laugh that the reason there's so much success in South America is that they baptize the people and then they begin the lessons. However we're going to a member's house tonight to clear some things up with her.
Umm there isn't much I'm looking forward to this week besides maybe getting a letter and that there's another baptism on Friday. Oh and it's starting to get real cold here. Since we're about thirty to forty minutes north of Madrid the weather is starting to turn. It snowed on Saturday and our every other weekly soccer was colder than it has been!
So that sums everthing up! Give Grandpa Hawks a big hug from me, tell Grandpa Cline Happy Birthday even if it is four days late and I'm pretty sure Courtney's is soon or passed so tell her Happy Birthday tambien! Love you all thanks for the support. And remember the best way to spread Christmas cheer is writing letters for missionaries dear.... :)
