Feliz Navidaaadddd!!
Hola mis queridos amigos!! Feliz navidad from España 🎄
What a wonderful time of the year! We got to talk to so many people this week about our Savior, Jesus Christ, and His love for all of us and I love it! I hope you are all having a wonderful Christmas wherever you are!!
Highlights/ Fun facts:
- We had our first full week as a trio and it is so fun!! We are super busy all the time and I love it! I have also gotten to meet a bunch of members from the other wards and it's been great!
- Adalisa's baptism was this Saturday and it was soooo good! She was so excited and had so much light with her the whole day! A bunch of members came to support as well which was awesome! She has been coming to church and off and on meeting with the missionaries for 3 years so this was a huge day for her 😍
- We had our ward Christmas party this past Saturday and it was so cute! There were presentations and musical numbers and we even sang with the Elders and the ward mission leader!!
- At the Christmas party, a less active member came over to me and invited us to dinner with their family! When we got there, their whole family was there with their children and families who haven't been to church in a long time! We were able to share a message with them and bring the spirit into their home and it was awesome 😊
- Our Bishop in my ward invited us over on Christmas Eve to eat with their family and it was so fun!! We ate paella and taught them the couch game which was amazing! They are such a fun family and I love them!
Miracle:
We have had a crazy week this week balancing both of the areas here in Pamplona with just the three of us, but to be honest a miracle for me this week was the realization that it's not just the three of us or just me handling our areas! I have come to realize through some humbling experiences that we truly are just instruments in God's hands and He is guiding us!! I know that this us His area and His people, and as I listen to His spirit He will do His work through me! And because of this I have felt so much peace and JOY!! I love being the Lord's servant and representing Him here in Spain through the hardest times and the most wonderful times 💛
Spiritual Thought:
As a mission we were able to watch the part of the Chosen that portrays Christ's birth this morning, and it was so good to start out the day remembering who we are celebrating 😍 One part I loved was when the Shepherds came to see Jesus and after they left, they said "we have to tell everyone!!" Then President Eastland likened each of us missionaries to these shepherds! We are hear trying to tell everyone about our dear Savior who was born and died to save us all and it is amazing!! I invite you all in this season to be like these shepherds and share with everyone about our Savior Jesus Christ. I love Him and I know He lives!!
I love you all so much and I would love to hear from you!!
