eMail of December 14, 2009

You are going through a deep freeze; we are just heating up more. We only had an hour of Church yesterday as the presidential elections for the country were yesterday. I don´t know who won or anything for the moment. For that, yesterday wasn´t the best.

But we did get a lot done this last week. We taught lots of lessons and we have several people here getting ready for baptism. I really hope that pulls through.

As for all we are doing, my comp has had a rough time. He has still been sick, and the other day a dog bit him on the side and left gashes in the skin. It was wierd how it happened, but it was a stray dog it looks like but it didn´t go through the garment so he doesn´t have to worry. He still has a lot of difficulty with the language as well. But he keeps on moving which I´m happy about. I just hope everything gets better for him soon.

As for better things, I am learning a lot right now about myself and other stuff. I am trying to break out of being shy and just be who I am around others. I´ve always been somewhat shy with some things. But anyway, this last week we got to teach a lady that we had met the week before that is a great person. As we were teaching about the Apostasy, she realized what that meant and said "I´m in apostasy." It may sound bad but I was really happy when she said that, because it means she will be willing to leave the darkness and accept the light. She never had realized that before. It is amazing when people realize and understand what we are teaching them.

I am so grateful for all the experiences I have had here this last year. I feel a little bit anxious about getting as much as I can done now though. I have less than a year left, and seeing how fast this last year went by I know it will be over far before I am ready. I don´t feel like I´ve done enough, so I just feel anxious to get more done.

Well, I love you all and hope everything goes well and that you are happy. Have fun!!
