Highlight of the Week: Talking with my family! (Skype is so easy. . . why did I not know this?)
We had an investigator come to church yesterday!!! So exciting. The hardest part of missionary work here is getting people to church. Nearly everybody's willing to talk about Christ till the cows come home (honestly, till their cows come in from the fields) but then you explain that attending church is important and they always have really good reasons why they can't go. But it's so important! We're working on that.
Bueno. Christmas in Paraguay:
Hot. Humid. Loud. Imagine the 4th of July with Christmas lights and palm trees and you've got a pretty good idea. And apparently there´s a huge dinner at midnight. I wouldn't know though. I was sleeping :) And Christmas day we had divisions with the Hermanas Leaders, but we still managed to make chocolate chip pancakes in the morning to celebrate :)
Our mission-wide activity on Thursday was something else entirely, but I´ll wait till next week to do it justice.
And I forgot to bring my camera to send pictures AGAIN. Sorry. It´s gonna happen. Someday.
