These last two weeks have gone well we had a really good christmas feast at the house of a really rich member  in momos, he had enough food for all the missionaries and because he spends time in the states every few months it was turkey and mashed potatoes with a lot of other things that come from the states.  afterward we had permission to watch The Grinch at the house of the Elders in momos,  but the disk was scratched so we didn`t.  The work week has been good although right now we really don´t have anyone progressing.  I´m really excited to get a new year started,  it´ll be a bummer not staying up till midnight this year, but i have the rest of my life for that.

Yesterday we got the district together and went caroling, since there´s only 3 areas in the district it makes it easy for us to visit all three without missing to much work, also they area seventy Elder Martino decided to change the work schedual of the zone so instead of going home at 6pm we´re out till 9:30, they say thery´re going to buy us flashlights but still the members tell us to stay in centro and in the light, which is all right because that´s where most of the investigators and members are anyway, also we have been contacting like no other this week and found several families in further out areas that have never talked to missionaries before ane are very interested one of whom is a whole family who are very poor and humble

This week has been hard as far as the work goes, everyone has little problems which get in the way of baptisim even though they have a testimony, our most positive family said no to a baptisimal date this week because the father is going to HueHue for the month and they want to all be baptized together so that means waiting ´till january urgh! and our other positive family said no because the in active father doesn´t want anything to do with the church although his wife wants to return and the children who have already attended varies times and have testimonies.  But the work goes forward and we´re not getting down.

We went to the area over to watch the devotional, I especially liked the talk by Pres. Uchtdorf about recieving gifts afterwards we spent the night at a members house there,  The work is going well and we have several investigators that are progressing and about ready to be baptised.
