Thanksgiving was good. We ate at the Church because the ward did a dinner for the people in need, but we also had a member feed us. Just before they fed us we harvested a haitians house and they fed us a ton! So we had just eaten a lot and then we had to go and eat more. It was crazy. Haitians love to give us food. They make thyis crazy macaroni that's pretty good.
The Mabou family hasn't been baptized yet. We're still working on it. Haitians hav e a hard time understanding why they need to be baptized in another church after they've already been baptized even after you explain it to them. But we had an awesome week and got 8 investigators to sacrament mnetting!!!! We were so happy!
The Christmas fireside kind of fell through. Bishop sort of forgot about it. HAha. We didn;t have a lot of timne to prepare anyways. But I'm singing at the Christmas mission conference on the 11th with a sister in our zone. Each zone does a number. I'm really excited. WE're singing O holy night. She's really good singer so it'll be way fun. We also have to take a whiteelephant gift so I'll need to pick one out soon.
I think the family that I'll have you do Christmas for is Vivaldi's. There names and ages are Chris- 2, Vivaldi -8, Shirley -12, Billy -13, Wiki -15, Erika -16. I'll have to send the address next week. sorry.
We kind a had a long day so I'm tryin gto write as much as I can without sleeping. HAha. WE had to help a member of the Stake Presidency move today which STUNK on P-day and we really aren;t supposed to, but oh well.
This week the Book of Mormon Musical came to Ft. Lauderdale and president anderson asked us to hand out Mormon.org cards to the poeple going and answer questions. Everyoine in our zone does it 2 a weekish. It's really interesting. It's wioerd not working in the ghetto. It's strange talking to richer people. Some itmes people are a little rude, but not to bad. Last night we worked after the show becasue we thought it started at 8, but on sunday it starts at 6:30. People thought we were much more of a joke after the show. We met a couple of the cast members and lots of people thought we were part of the cast. One guy even wanted a picture with us, and even after we told him we were the real thing he still wanted a pciuture. haha. There are 3 companionships that do it everyday for the matine and the regul;ar show.
We had intervies with President this week. They were good. One peice of advice he gave me was to introspect about the changes that I've made. He's a really cool guy.
It';s still super warm here. It's about 77-80ish right now.
I love you all! Hope you have a great week!!!!
