Christmas Week

This was definitely a slower week as far as finding and teaching, most of the people we talked to told us they are going to be busy until after the New Year. On Christmas Eve, we got to play Santa and deliver packages and mail to all the missionaries in the zone. When we pulled up to some elders' apartment, we realized we didn't actually have any mail for them. So we decided since we were already there, we would carol to them haha. They thought it was great haha!


As we were delivering packages we stopped by the apartment of the Neuffers, the senior missionary couple who works with the recruits at the MCRD. We chatted with them for a bit and got a picture!


There was hardly anyone at church on Christmas morning when we arrived 15 minutes early, and the chapel was basically empty. But right before we started, it filled up. The Garcia family that we are teaching showed up too, which was awesome. Obispo and his wife and some other members gave all of us missionaries some presents, they are the best! 


On Sunday we will get transfer news, I will probably get moved for the last time, so I am excited to see what happens. I'm hoping I get put on bikes, since I haven't been a biking elder yet.


Have a great week everyone!
