Familia!
Hope you all had a
great Christmas! Ours was awesome! I'll start off by telling you
all about it...
We started off the
morning right: by studying the scriptures! After studies, the partying
began! We headed over to an English member's house and talked with them
and the English Elders for a while, then I got to call home. That was
awesome! It was so good to hear your voices, and I was impressed with
your Spanish during the Feliz Navidad song... After that, I talked to an
8 year-old boy named L--- about ninjago (Trevor's ninja lego show) while Elder
Elbaba was on his phone call. After calls were over, us and the other Spanish
elders went to a less-active's house for Christmas lunch. We then took
the other Elders to one of their investigators, where I was served goat soup!
It was super good! Also at that house, I had an interesting
conversation with a drunk Mexican on his couch... We finished off the day
by going to the house of another family in our branch for a traditional
Christmas dinner. It was a great day!
To be honest, the rest
of the week was pretty average. Not much out of the ordinary happened.
We had some really good lessons, and we were able to get a member out
with us that hasn't come out with missionaries for a long time.
I did want to share
with you one of the funny moments of the week. We were talking with this
lady and telling her about a lasagna that a member had made for us a little
earlier. She said that her daughter always asks her to make lasagna, but
she tells her daughter that she doesn't know how to make lasagna because she's
"not white." It's always funny to hear comments like that,
because immediately after them, people will get all nervous that they offended
me...
Anyways, that's all
I've got for this week. Thanks for everything, and I hope you have a
great week!
Love,
Elder Foote
