Ok family!
Hope all is well! This week was great. Kind of hard because it`s been raining a ton! Haha it`s supposed to be summer here but i think the weather is confused...Christmas is sweet! It`s a great time to have good experiences with the people here. Especially the families. We learned yesterday that Fernando has been living in his car to avoid living in the same house as his girlfriend haha wow he`s awesome. He`s moving back with his parents in Colón in a couple weeks. And he says he`s wanting to serve a mission!! He´s going to leave with us tonight to go teach! Sweet!
Cool experience last night. It was about 8 15...we were right by the house, hadn`t eaten breakfast, lunch, or dinner haha oops, it was raining, and to say the least we were tired. But we decided to go out and push for another 45 minutes. Went to a new neighborhood that we hadn`t contacted and it wasn`t looking to promising. We had a couple rejections until finally this guy named Victor opens the door. He looked a little surprised to see us at that hour but he let us in. His wife, Milena also listened to us. Turns out they have two kids and are soon planning on marriage! Sweet! They had lots of questions about the Book of Mormon and we left them with a chapter to read! The only problem will be finding time to go back and teach them because Victor works a lot...i`m thinking it would have been better to just go home and go to sleep haha NOT. Really a testimony builder for me. I always look forward to the last minutes of the day because we see miracles a lot in the last moments of the day...when you feel to tired to keep going haha
Well i love you all! I`ll keep praying for you! I can imagine how awesome the house smells right now but i`d say a christmas in panama is going to be AWESOME!
I`m not sure what time we`ll call...i might just call real quick in the morning to let you know what time to call us...we might be at a members house but i dont know yet. Christmas is going to be kinda busy!
Dad that was a good talk on faith...i think i read about that the other day....how faith is a choice. Really good stuff. I have a goal to finish Jesus the Christ this week! It`s such an amazing book and it really helps me understand the bible a lot. James E Talmage knows his stuff.
Mucho amor,

Mom!
This week was sweet! Got pretty wet haha but i`m alive. My umbrella broke a few months ago and i`m not paying five bucks for the ones they sell by our house! Not worth it! I prefer getting wet...
Lots of good experiences in the mission. The other day we were on divisions...i was with this elder named Elder Reber. We were on the bus going back to his area at night (the bus was pretty full) and we told the driver to turn off the music. We sang silent night to everyone in the bus and got some applause haha elder Reber sings really well. When we got off there was this kid that called us and came up to us. He asked us where the church was and gave us his address! It was cool...i like the little experiences of the mission more than anything.
Lib..
