It was so cool Skyping everyone for Christmas, but it was weird because it didn't feel like it had been 5 months without talking with you all. It felt like only a few weeks. Christmas here in Barbosa was just like any other day in the mission... Awesome! I'm learning so much and am being tested in every way by God, but I know that all of these tests are for a reason, so its okay haha. I wore my Christmas PJ's on Christmas Eve even though it's super hot and humid here in Barbosa. The sacrifices for family traditions! haha. I love and miss you all but I know that this is where I am supposed to be and that this Gospel really does change lives! I'm finally not sick anymore! I was sick for almost a week. I think it was due to the change in climate, but I'm all good now. I'm sorry this is so short. I have no idea what to write about. We don't have many investigators still but we are going to find TONS of people this week, so next weeks email will be full of all the awesome people we have found. I love you all and I am so grateful for all of your love and support!
