Brain of Mush!!

I dunno whether to title this Merry Christmas or Happy New Year or Happy Anniversary for Cassie and Wade or Happy Birthday for Mom!!! Haha so I just went with brain of mush because that's always a good summary for the week.

Hollyyyyy Christmas!!! It was SO AMAZING talking to the fam for Christmas. It was like I never left home. You guys feel closer than ever. :) THANK YOU for being an amazing family. XD

We had an awesome Christmas here in Santiago! It was blazing hot haha. But it was cool because our President let us have P-day that day instead of the Monday before, but still gave us time to write our families last week, as you know haha. So we just hung out in the Pension and then went and had lunch with the Familia Navarro until I called you guys. 

We had a great lesson with Ana this week. She's so awesome. We were walking with her one day in the Feria (outside market where all the neighbors get together and just sell whatever they have) and we met her neighbor, Patricia. We started talking to her about the gospel and asked if it would be okay if we came by one day to teach her. We also invited her to church and Ana chimed in and said "I go too!!" Soo awesome that she is open to sharing that with her neighbors. But yeah we've almost taught her all the lessons. But she still doesn't have a baptismal date because she told us she wants to let us know when she is ready. :) Oh and she invited us to have lunch at her house yesterday which makes her doubly awesome. XD

A less active member's dad passed away this week super unexpectedly. They are still investigating who did it, but someone bashed him in the head on the street with some type of metal and he ended up passing away a few days later. The family is la Familia Miranda but the daughter, Nelly, is the one struggling the most. Prayers please!

We started teaching a really cute old man, also named Jorge. He already knows a ton about Joseph Smith and already has a testimony, so I think the lessons will go by relatively quickly.... we're hoping that he will accept a baptismal date this week. :) He's sooooo cute. 

Hermana Phillips got changed!! (one of my the sisters i live with) It was super unexpected. She just finished getting trained, and now will be a trainer as well! Crazyyyyy. She's do awesome but I'm gonna miss living with her sooooo much. 

Love you all!! Have an awesome week. :)
