Dear family!
So I guess I need to apologize for opening my Christmas packages early (I am sorry). The assistants to the president brought them over and within the following couple of days I had to be preparing to pack if I got transferred. Which is probably the reason they brought the packages over when they did. So I had to open them so that I could situate everything in my suitcase. I am sorry for opening them early, but it had to be done! But again thanks to all who sent me something! It was great fun even though it was early.(and still is)
So we had our baptism on Saturday and we ended up baptizing 4 people. It was so amazing to play a part in all of it. There should have been 5 but something happened to one of our investigators and she ended up not showing up. Tonight we are going over to check it out and I hope that she still has a desire to be baptized.
So transfers came and I didn't get transferred, but Elder Hanks did. My new companion is a Filipino and his name is Elder Alcoy. So its going to be good that i have a Filipino comp to learn the language better. But I have to say that I do miss having an American haha, it's just so different. Wish me luck and pray for us both. We had a ward Christmas party on Saturday and it was fun to go and watch all the kids have a good time with there activities and games. A lady that owns a really good restaurant brought some spaghetti over and it was sooooo good! Then this other lady had some cheese flavored ice cream, home made. Its not exactly what you would call ice cream lol, but it was still good.
So i should be calling from a cell phone and the time you suggested is perfect to call and I will call around 11:30 and talk to all of you! (Oh I can't wait) It doesn't really seem like its Christmas to me because I am not with all of you. Also its like a billion degrees here and I wish I could see snow lol!!! Still as hot as it is everyone says that they are cold and they all have jackets on. All the American missionaries are still sweating and dying of heat. At night I use a fan and my companion thinks I am a nut case. Its funny to see his face as he shakes his head as I stand in front of the fan to cool off.
So the annual Polar Express night was Sunday night? It looks like you all were having a good time from the picture! Hey Happy Birthday Dad!!!!!!! I hope you have a great day! I cant wait to call on Friday!!! I hope you all have a great week! I love you all very much! We will talk soon!!!!
