Well hi friends! So,
this week was awesome and filled with amazing things. From interview with
president to Bradley and I Baptizing the first convert here in this area in 8
months it truly was amazing. On top of that I found out that here in Mexico it
snows ha. Here we gooooo.
So, to start off this week was the last week of the change so that meant
it was crunch time. We had a really fun full week also so that just made it fly
bye. We started with the crazy things on Tuesday when we had our interviews with
President McArthur.
Interviews are so amazing and being able to
talk to your mission president there is just something special about it. So,
interviews went amazing and then to top off that day we received packages!!!
I got to say I’m truly spoiled (Loved)haha. I
was spoiled before my mission from some people and I still am I guess. First
off thank you all so much for your love and support. You make it easier for me
to be here away from you all with your emails, Letters, and packages that I receive.
Thank you I truly love you all.
Well so I
received 9 packages and also a bunch of Cards/letters. I had so many packages I
had to take them all home in my big suitcase that I luckily brought with me.
Thanks mommy for the heads up and for that idea.
I did end
up opening one of the packages there at our meetings and shout out to Sam
Barnes for the spinners because now my whole zone has a spinner thanks for sponsoring
us haha they all loved them.
Well that
was our Tuesday filled with fun and packages. Then the next day we had divisions and
I worked with Elder Sandrigo my District leader then it was just super cold. It
has truly been so cold here this past week it has been crazy. Oh, ya Elder Bradly
and I are staying put in our area so no changes!!!
So,
I think Thursday we had snow. I wasn’t really told, or I had no idea it snowed
here in Mexico but surprise for Elder Davis it does. People did tell us that it
really never does but that this year was a special one. It like snowed but wasn’t
cold enough for the snow to stick on the ground but it stuck on the cars, so it
snowed haha.
It has
been cold here and the cold is different here it like goes straight to your bones,
so we have just been wearing a lot of layers. It was fun to see snow though and
we had a great time.
Well then,
the best thing that happened this week is that we had our baptism of Jose
Angel. He is amazing, and it was an amazing experience to be a part of
everything that happened. He got baptized Saturday then got confirmed
yesterday. He also received the priesthood yesterday which was a great surprise
to us because we didn’t know that was happening. It was a beautiful experience
though all the way around.
I give
all my thanks though to my father in heaven. Without him we would not have seen
the miracles that we did. I love my Father in Heaven I know he loves you too.
Give thanks always for the things you have also.
I invite you this week to just be thankful.
Just for everything. Smile and keep moving forward God loves you. You are all
so special and so many people love you. I truly don’t deserve you all in my
life and I thank my Father in Heaven every day for each and one of you.
Have a
great week!!!! Stay warm and have an awesome week getting ready for Christmas.
Give back though and remember those who don’t have as much or might be alone
this holiday season.
Look for
those opportunities to make others smile.
Love
Elder Davis
