Feliz Año Nuevo!

January 7, 2014

What is up everyone?? Happy New year!! I can´t believe it´s 2014 already! Makes me sad because it means my mission is coming to an end this year.  :(

This week has been pretty interesting. There has been something going on called La Corraleja, basically bull fighting in the wooden stadium, and anyone can go inside with the bulls. Almost everyone in Turbaco goes there to watch and party, so it has been a little difficult to find people in their houses. 

Mr. Bat

We have had some good lessons, especially with Carmen. We´ve been working hard with her so that she can get married. This week she put in the papers to be  processed so that they (she and Osvaldo (soon to

Vampire??

be husband) can get married. Which means that Carmen and her son can get baptized! Super pumped for that.  Also, all three of them came to church yesterday. 

We´re also working with some other people  trying to have them come to church, but it´s kinda hard with holidays and what not. We are being persistent! 

Today we went to a less active member's house for lunch. He made us fried fish, patacones, and of course rice. It was really good. I love the fish here. Then after lunch we just bought some stuff at the store, cut our hair and chilled in the house. 

It´s a festival today so there aren´t a lot of places open and there isn´t much to do. That is pretty much it for this week. Really slow with all the parties and stuff like that. 

Thanks for all the support. I love you all!
Abrazos y besos
