TWO TURTLE DOVES AND AN OSTRICH IN A PEAR TREE

cue relient k´s 12 days of christmas

(that wasnt´ a joke, this letter must be read with the accompaniment of that song )

soo family, i just have to say merry early Christmas!!!! and i just have to ask...which Christmas movies have yáll watched? kranks? santa claus 1 and 2? the grinch? those are the essentials yah? hahaha well. the christmas cheer over here, on a scale of 1-10 is a solid 3.14. i dont know, it´s like the people aren´t too excited for it. i guess it´s different culture thing? 

 but me and hna rengifo are PUMPED and so we are spreading the cheer. 

and so right now the christmas cheer is at a solid 9 -3/4. (haha) 

i thought i was close to licking my elbow. la hermana rengifo told me que me he equivocado... hahahah

ahhh! we had a zone training thing and it was bomb. we were talking just about the whole time about Christ and ahhh it was glorious! and the testimony that one can give of Jesus Christ is soo powerful!  that has been one of our goals for this week and it´s awesome so far. to testify more of Him. we testify tanto del Book of Mormon, the prophets, the Church. but have realized that we need to better that aspect enserio!!!! anyway the training was super awesome about how we can utilize any part of the Book of Mormon to testify of Christ. the Book of Mormon is sooo important and it itself, every verse, testifies of Christ as our Savior and Redeemer. also im reading Jesus the Christ. in english, i found one in the pension! haha it´s awesome!"!! 

let´s see. oh! so theres this girl Cecilia and she´s bomb! and she has a baby chiquitita (1 month). she´s a menos activa that 

we´ve been visiting for a while but just recently we´ve been talking to her husband! por fin! he is really shy and wasn't interested but we had a lesson bomb with him! and he´s reading the book of Mormon and already went to church with us 2 times! his name is walter!!!!! and they're awesome!!!!! and im so sorry but i have to go! i have 2 min. 

i just want yall to know that i kNow that Jesus is the Christ. That he came to earth to fulfill the will of the Father and becuase He has soo much love for us. He lived a perfect life and suffered soo much for us. He suffered so that we can have hope. He fulfilled perfectly his role as the Christ. and He lives! I encourage yall to study more of Him. of His life. Of His birth! and during this season rejoice! because He did it! 

He fulfilled the will of The Father and made that we can live again in the presence of them! 

i love yall and merry early Christmas!!!
