Chile - Osorno - Week 56 - Feliz Navidad / Baptism

Hope everyone had a Merry Christmas!

Bueno, we had a baptism on Saturday! It was awesome! Laura was so prepared and I know she is only going to keep progressing from here. Her whole family came to support her which was awesome! 
Her daughter and grand-kids are also investigating the church a little bit so we are going to start focusing on them now! They all came to church yesterday too to see Laura receive the Holy Ghost! 
We are so excited for her and we know she is going to be a great example for her family!

Christmas here was good, not like it is at home, but you do what you can with what you've got! 
Christmas eve we were supposed to go eat dinner with a family, but they didn't show up to pick us up until like 10:30pm that night and we had to be in the house at 11:00 so that didn't really work out as planned, but a Christmas Miracle happened and a member of our ward showed up at our door at 11:00 with a bag full of Chicken and Potatoes! We ate it on the living room floor in our PJ´s while listening to Michael Bublè  Christmas Music. Then at midnight we opened our presents we got from the members! 
it was a Christmas I won't forget! 

Hope everyone has a good week and a Happy new year! 

Here is to 2016!!

  1. Hi, it looks like you've been having a wonderful time in Chile! I'm currently running a project that is seeking to find all the cross-cultural combinations and influences in the world, with the aim being to show that there is more than unites us as people than sets us apart. I'd love to talk to you more about your time in Chile - if you're interested, please contact me at (hello@penguin-bingo.com), and I can tell you more! Take care, Sonia
