Dec 29, 2009- Feliz Natal

I was thinking that Christmas wasnt going to be very fun out here away from you guys, but it actually was really fun. It was really different spending it in 80 degree weather without a cloud in the sky and the only thing you see when you look of the balcony of the mission home is the ocean in front of you, but it was really relaxing and really fun. The food was good and we had some programs and it was fun being with the Presidents family. Our president is really fun, he is only like 40 so he acts really young and likes to be involved. We play soccer every monday morning at 6 and today and the last week he came and played with his... its cool how he gets involved. He played for a club here when he was younger so he is really good.... and they take soccer seriously here with all these people and the brazilian elders, but us americans are picking it up and getting pretty good. So not a whole lot is new here, the investigators are still going about the same but they are kinda slacking... the one thats doing best is dí, that rapper... he does everything we ask and he will be baptized the 9th. We are starting to try to find lots of new people to teach too and doing more contacts and stuff so i will let you know how this week goes. We cant work new years eve night though cuase there will be lots of stuff going on out here so we just stay inside. Hope you guys have a good new years though, let me know how it goes. Thanks again for everything!
