Felizíssimo Natalzão‏

12/23/2009

....hmm, i got nothing. Call me
 
Everything wrapped and ready?
  Guna be a little honest, its all most impossible to right today and without 
purpose.  The fact that all call home in two days is a little disanimating.
  But some fun events of the week:
  Our investigator took a hanky to church this week know that they´d feel the 
spirit enough to cry.  I´m still not sure whose faith is strengthened more 
each time we meet, her´s or mine.
  Alías, the best part was prez visited our church this week and gave the 
last talk in sacrament meeting as well as the sunday school lesson.  All 
very exciting except in the rush to go to church we....
 
....Got, LOCKED INTO OUR HOUSE!!!  Yep, that´s sadly true.  You see the 
power went out like during our exit prayer and you press an electronic 
button to open the gate.... yikes.  Luckily after looking around ten minutes 
we found someone with a regular key to the door.  Still im´not sure the 
prez was too pleased to see 2 elders walk in to sacrament late from the 
stand....that burning stare...tssss. lol.
  I think its important to note that i´ve only eaten chocolate this week as 
most of our lunches have fallen threw. i think its a pretty healthy diet.
  Anyway i just hope every has and excellent Natal and that all is merry 
and bright.  This season i keep finding my self fall back on one in 
particular story Megan King told me from her trip to Peru;  One day they 
were giving away clothes to the children.  every one got two shirts i 
believe.  So as one after one the child came threw the line a little girl 
finally arrived at the from a onde Megan was.  As she went to let the 
little girl take 2 shirts she just couldn´t seem to let or make her except 
both.  She would only take one.
  Finally after trying her best to explain to the girl in broken Spanish 
that it was to take 2 shirts, she finally called over a translator and was 
soon humbled to discover what the little child had been saying when the 
translator explained, ´´She won´t take two because she know that that 
means some one at the end of the line will only receive one or none at all.´´
  That story moves me just as much now as it did when i heard it.  I hope 
we can all remember and take upon us such a giving spirit this season.  its 
not what we get that we´ll remember nearly as much as wat we give.
FELIZ NATAL!!!!
