Well lets just say I love the Christmas season, and its even more like home being in a little richer part of Lima. A lot of people put lights on their houses, and I’m hearing a lot of Christmas music. We had the lights on our house first though, and this week tons of people have followed our example. Its pretty funny because we didn’t really have anything to attach the lights, so we pretty much have placed rocks to hold them on the roof. Its pretty funny, but they still are up there, so it has worked. It’s a good thing that there isn’t ever any hard wind or rain here in Lima or we would be in trouble.
This week seems to have gone by very quickly. We have been really busy with stuff in the office, and teaching that the time just went by really quickly. We have a few new investigators this week that seem to be really awesome. They have already promised to go to church Sunday, and we are going to there house later tonight to continue teaching them. They seem really interested though. They are a few sisters that have a little juice store. The awesome thing was we were knocking on a door for another appointment, and they contacted us. You gotta love those ones. It cracks me up when the people ask from what church we are from, and then what do they have to do to be a part of the church. Its crazy how the Lord just sometimes has people so prepared to hear and to accept the gospel. Our job is just to follow the spirit always to find these people. So the work is really going great.
Tomorrow we might not be able to leave the house to proselyte because they are having a championship soccer game tomorrow, and the stadium is in my area! Oh man it would be awesome to see the game, but we aren’t allowed to leave because it is one of the biggest rival games in Peru. They have big gates in all of the streets here, and they are going to be closed because whatever team loses there are going to be some fights afterwards. This rivalry is probably bigger than BYU and Utah, and I think the fans are even worse when they lose, if you can believe that. We’ll see what happens though. They actually are cutting church to just sacrament meeting too, because the church is just down the street. Pretty crazy huh?Well love you guys, and thanks for all of the support you always give me I’m glad everything is going so great at home, and I’m praying for you always. Thanks for all of your letters too, especially Grandma and Grandpa Wheeler, thanks for your weekly letter I love reading them. Everyone else too, I’m really sorry it takes me so long to respond, but I’m working on it. Gracias a todos! Les amo mucho!
