Happy New Year

¡Hola todas las personas! ¿Como fue su Navidad y Año Nuevo?
 
Well my week was pretty good. On Monday we had our p-day and we watched church movies because it was raining... again... but after that we had a dinner with the family that we are staying with. We had LOBSTER!!! Oh my goodness it was so good! Also I had no clue how to eat a lobster... you literally break open every part of that thing and eat it. But it was really good.


Then on Tuesday the entire island was still partying. So we went to lunch, which was a bbq, and then went and tried to visit people... key word, "tried", but we were able to visit with some of the members and share a little bit with them.

On Wednesday we went and taught Rodrigo. The kid who doesn't know if God exists or not. We had a really good lesson with him. We watched The Restoration in English. He insisted that we kept it in English, and he actually understood most of the stuff so that was interesting. Then we finally got him to commit to pray. So I guess we will see if he does it or not.

On Thursday we shared with German and Monica. We are teaching her the lessons and stuff, but she is still planning on being baptized on the continent so we can't really put her with a date. Then we went and did service for several different people.

Friday was pretty much the same as Thursday. Lots of service to help people with their New Year's resolutions and all that stuff.

Saturday we had a ward activity. We had a lunch and a bbq thing after. There were actually a lot more people than we had expected. Several inactive people showed up, and even some nonmembers. It was really fun, and now we have some more people to work with.

Chapel on the Island
Sunday we had 14 people in church! That's a new record in the time we have been here! It was pretty interesting. Pretty much they all got up there and said how the branch needs to do better at trying to reactivate, and helping us out. Yes it was testimony meeting. Then during the classes we had tithing settlements. So after church we had to try and figure out how to input all the information in the computer, and how to fix all of the problems there were. Being a secretary is fun, but is crazy here on the island because it's so unorginized! But I'm learning alot about how the things work. All the behind the scenes of the church! It's pretty fun. But that's all for now.



Some souvenirs I bought.

Love you and miss you all tons!!!

I PUT A NEW PICTURE OF NATE AND HIS FISH SKIN BOOK COVERS IN THE CHRISTMAS POST SO MAKE SURE YOU GO BACK AND LOOK AT IT.
