FELIZ NATAL!! Hope all your holiday wishes came true and that you all took time to remember the reason behind the season. Because of the holiday, this will be another quick write.
On Saturday we had the baptism of Dario and Laura (grandfather and granddaughter). They were so happy the whole week leading up to it; they bought new clothes and everything. Dario was so happy after his baptism he tried swimming in the font! Moments like these are what missionaries live for.
Christmas here for me is very different, very unusual, and very good. I’m sweating, covered in mosquito bites, and looking at a very Charlie Brown-ish Christmas tree. But I wouldn’t want to be anywhere else right now. How great it is that I literally have Christmas every day since Jesus Christ is the center of every day for me!
“Therefore, hold up your light that it may shine unto the world. Behold I am the light which ye shall hold up—that which ye have seen me do.”
3 Nephi 18:24
That’s all folks, Tchau tchau for now!

Sister Grace, l work in our New Saratoga Springs Temple each Tuesday. My neighbor also works there with me. He called me the other day and asked “how about if we start going to the Temple also every Friday morning and do an endowment session each week? That our New Year’s resolution. That you for sharing your experiences with me each week. They are uplifting and help keep my Testimony strong.. There are no coincidences only miracles. Merry Christmas & Happy New Year. You are on the Saviors errand.. 🕊
