Thanksgiving
was good. as a zone, we celebrated it with a turkey, cake, potatoes, fruit
salad, and other stuff. Me and my companion brought the cake because there is a
panadería near our house so we asked them to customize a cake for us. ¡YOU GUYS
GOT ANOTHER CAT! That is awesome. We now have two cats that have been imported
from Idaho. That’s nice to know that I didn’t miss a crazy Black Friday
adventure. I found out that they have Black Friday here too. It is only in electronic
stores, and it is not nearly as big. I remember when we waited in front of Sam’s
Club for Black Friday for our phones. It was great talking to other people,
being laughed at for waiting in front of a store all night, and telling other
people that we were waiting to buy there pie. One of our investigators is super
into America because he lived there for ten years and is overly impressed with
our police. We talk to him in English and he is super excited because he is
going to return back to the United States January 5th to live with his family again.
He is super positive and does and changes everything we ask of him because we
have the "American Mentality" as he calls it. The only thing he wants
to wait on is baptism because his wife is catholic and he wants to talk to her
before he changes his religion without talking to her. He says that he will go
to the LDS Church when he returns to the U.S. though, so, I guess the Georgia, Atlanta
missionaries will baptize him. Our P-day was taken from us today, so today is
just a normal day but we get to email home. it is taken because we are going to
Xetalulu this Thursday as a mission. Xetalulu is the adventure park we have in
the mission. We all customized and bought zone jerseys for the day. It is
basically the missions Christmas party. As a mission this week we were also
talked to tell others about the video "He is the Gift" or as the
chapins say it "El es la Dàdiva" (a Chapin is someone who was born in
Guatemala like how a Gringo is someone who was born in the U.S.). So I guess
people should probably check it out. The church is putting a lot of money into
advertising it, so I guess they Quorum of the 12 has a lot of confidence in
this video. I guess it just begs the question: Como Nefi ¿Irà y Harà?
