The Church is True. Remember Jesus. Love you all.

Que tal mis naranjas,

Allllllllllright. This week was pretty bomb. So to start off, last Monday, we had a little mini district activity. Did you know that there's a TGIFridays in Paraguay? And all the music there is in English? And the menu is in English? And it tastes the same as in the United States? Yeah. NEITHER DID I. I felt like I was in the United States again . So we went there for lunch and then went and played soccer at the church in Centro. Then on Tuesday we helped a family clean their front yard. Literally every person here owns a machete to cut down trees. We chopped down a bunch of their trees and basically just cleaned. I totally forgot to bring my camera for pictures so oops. And then on Wednesday we had a zone Christmas activity. We all gathered as a zone in our Mission President's house and talked a lot about Christmas, and played ping pong. It was a grand time. Totally forgot to take pictures soo oooooooops. I think Paraguay just had a holiday to celebrate Mary or something? I'm not quite sure, and it's still hard for me to communicate with my companion because he doesn't speak English hahaha. But anyways, a lot of people have been busy this week and we haven't been able to have a ton of lessons or find people, so that kinda sucks. 

Also, fun little thing about Paraguay(and maybe South America?), is that for Christmas a lot of people light off fireworks in celebration. SO basically it's the 4th of July in 15 days. Woot woot. Also they have little to no laws on fireworks so everyone's got bottle rockets and firecrackers and everything. A member actually gave me a bottle rocket a few weeks ago hahaha.

But yeah I guess that-s all I got for this week. Hope you all have a great week. The church is true. Remember Jesus. Love you all.

Hey MOM,

Yeah, so our Christmas activity was just kind of a zone conference. We talked about goooospel stuff and then just kinda hung out for an hour in the mission President's house. It's suuuuper chuchi.

We helped clean one member's front yard and like chopped down all their trees. I totally forgot to bring my camera that day, so ooops. When a missionary is thinking about his house we call them tronky, and right now Elder Guerrero is veeery tronky hahaha. He says he doesn't like to write his family every week because they always talk about what their gonna do when he gets home hahaha.

Sure didn't know they were having a baby. I also always forget our ward doesn't exist anymore haha.

Every Monday and sometimes Tuesdays members ask me how my family is and what they're doing. I always say my family is really boring and nothing really happens hahaha. The most exciting thing is you're giving a talk this Sunday .

So I don't know what time we're calling our families on Christmas, but I think we're just doing it through email? I think there's a way you can do it, but I guess we'll figure it out then haha.

The package actually just got here, I got it 2 days ago!! Woot woot. I don't know if you want me to open the wrapped presents until Christmas or not so they're just sitting at our house right now, but I LOVE the Waffles socks hahahahahahaha. I laughed so hard when I saw them. Also love the purple tie, I really needed a purple one. 

But yeah, this week has been good. We had a lot of activities and stuff this week so we haven't found a ton of new people and a lot of current investigators are always busy so. Still doesn't feel like Christmas cuz it's so hot haha.

Thanks so much Mom. I miss all of you like every day haha.
