HOLA! Como estais?!HOLA

This week was pretty crazy!! 

 Remember that one week when we had 10/24 lessons, yeah that week was kind of like that except it was 10/26 lessons. 9 of those were with recent converts/less actives. the other was Felix.

FELIX! we asked him again to be baptized, i think he might be getting closer, he didn't have the answer he usually has which is mas adalante- too fast. he said he wanted to continue learning. hey hey. We were also talking about the Gospel of Jesus Christ and he remembered the steps of repentance. I was happy about that. And Felix came to church this week again. he's making friends quickly with all the people there which is also fabulous!

This week we went to Baldwin Park to do some service. they were having a food drive for those people who don't have much and each family recieved a 50lb box of food. It was such great service. and i used a lot of spanish. it was great! the best thing though was that after, there were extra boxes. so we took them to the people in our ward who needed them most. LOVE CHRISTMAS time! so many ways to serve and show people God's love for them.

Speaking of Christmas. remember how halloween time has some crazy decorations? It's the same with Christmas. I think i even saw one house that put out fake snow on the ground. I also recieved a cute Christmas card from the Hall's- um I like Christmas cards, feel free to keep sending more.

One of the members of the mission presidency told us to utilize the family history center and use those in our contacts, and also focus on the youth. so we've visited the family history center a time or 2 this week and it's been really interesting to see what they have available these days. I also know that the Randall's have done their family history all the way back to 800. Bien Hecho!

We're also ( i think mostly Hermana Judd) going to start piano lessons this week for anyone who wants to learn.

Sorry, this is kind of short. Hope you all are doing well! Remember the spirit of the season, what it's really all about and don't forget to ALWAYS read your scriptures, I've seen the difference in peoples lives when they haven't done it, and it's sad. God wants to give us blessings, we only have to do those little things to recieve them.

Much Love! Hermana Randall
