NATAL!!!

"For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord." 

~Luke 2:11

Dearest Family and Friends!!

I am so excited for Christmas this year and the whole Christmas season! Christmas in Europe is quite different than Christmas in America and unfortunately it's not celebrated as much, but it is still a celebration of the birth of our Savior and I couldn't be more happy to share the Christmas spirit!! :)

We have seen so many miracles this week and I've loved it!! We also had our mission Christmas Conference with the whole mission (except the island missionaries) and it was awesome!! I love Christmas!!

Tatiana: She is doing great! She came to church yesterday and she liked it a lot, she believes everything about the restoration and she's been reading in the Book of Mormon every day! She is incredible! Last night she called us and told us that she hadn't felt the Spirit in church and she was really concerned about this, we had a really awesome lesson with her where she prayed for guidance and felt she needed to continue talking to us and go to church next week. She has so much faith and such a strong desire to follow Christ. 

Luis and Andrey: THEY ARE AWESOME!! They're 2 brasilian futebol players that are looking for a church! I'm so glad the elders stopped them in the road! They live in our area, so we started teaching them! Luis accepted a baptismal date for the 27th and Andrey said he wanted to talk to his family first, but they both have a super strong desire to follow Christ and do what's right and the ward has already accepted them really well! They are awesome!!

The Lord's hand is in this work. I love being a missionary and I love sharing the gospel. I know that the Lord is preparing people to receive us and when we are worthy and obedient, He will help us find them. I hope you all have a wonderful Christmas week and you find someone to share the Love of Christ with!

I love you all!
