1/2/18 Feliz Natal E 2018!!!!!!!

Hello everybody!!!!!!! Happy New Year!!!! 2018!!!!!! WOOHOO!!!! Man did this year pass by so fast.... didn't even see Christmas coming or 2018... so crazy :) 

Well... sorry about not sending a letter these last 2 weeks. just happened that each holiday was on a pday.... so everything was closed :P But yeah :) Well... Christmas was great :) Got to talk to the fam and eat LOTS!!!! Man..... we went to a members house for lunch and then we went to the Chapel to use the computers there cuz there weren't any members free to use their house, so it was cool :) We went there with 2 other Elders and talked to our families :) Loved it :) Also on Christmas Eve we went to a members house for Dinner. It was great :) I love that family so much they are hilarious. They have a son that recently returned from his mission in England to we would say funny stuff in English and everyone else would just stare at us cuz they didn't understand. We kept laughing cuz they thought we were talking bad about them kkkkk XD XD But we were just pullin' their legs :P It was great :) We also got a box of chocolate from a member, Vera, and SANTA VISITED US!!!! We had 2 presents under the tree :) We opened them up when we got home after dinner. We got stuffed animals and I got more chocolate :) it was pretty great :) Took a pic and also we took videos :) 

For New Year... it wasn't the best. We stayed inside and tried to make cookies, but it didn't really work out... they kept sticking to the pan.. I put butter on it, but that made them stick even more... then I put butter and flour... but that didnt work either... so we ate a little of the batter :P and also prepared for the next day, which our district all got together and we had a great pday :) we played lots of games and ate a lot of food :) It was fun :) Got pics nad videos too :) 

Well.... on the note of the work.. no one new went to church..... we invited so many people and passed by the houses of our invesigators... but no one was home or wouldn't pick up the phone... so that was sad... but we are gonna try again. Our investigator that is progressing the most is Dani... and she has a son with 8 years and a cousin with 12 years. We are gonna invite them for baptism this week and see what happens :) They will have to be baptized next next Sunday cuz they have to go to church first..... but yeah :) We are super excited to prepare them :) 

Also this week we had an activity with the Ward, called, "Anjos de um Ano Novo", Angels of a New Year. It was about how we can be angels in the lives of people during this new year :) So we played a game where each person gets an object... a shoe, deodorant, a bucket, a Book of Mormon, a pan, a broom... a bunch of stuff and then Sister Elias and I made a situation and they had to try and help us :) It was pretty funny :) They used lots of creativity :) then a memebr gave a spiritual thought and then, of course, we ate lots of cake and sweets :) It was pretty great :) Liked it a lot :) It was me and Elias that planned it, so of course it was great... kkkk :P jkjk 

But yeah :) Dani went to the activity with her grandma and her kids. They loved it :) 

Well, that's basically it. It has been a great year and now I am super excited for the next :) Thank you everyone for your love and support and messages :) Love you all :) Be happy and try to be an angel in the life of someone or others :) Be an example of Christ :) 

Love you lots and have a great week :) 

Com Amor, 
Sister Ferguson
