12-28-09 Christmas Call and a White Christmas in Peru

We had a great conversation with Elder Ridge on Christmas. He was able to speak with the entire family and listed to his dog bark and his new niece cry. It was so nice to listen to him and growth we can see and hear in him.

Here is his weekly email.

Well it was good talking to you guys too, I’m glad that everyone is doing good and everyone is happy. Karra sounded good too and buddy.

Everyone in my companions family are members and very active but his dad is not a member, he likes to drink too much, but all his brothers and sisters have served missions and his brother in law is a stake president. He gets a lot of support from his family and they live good in Guatemala, he was born in the church too.

This Saturday we are going to baptize Marco Antonio to complete the family, he is awesome, we went to his house yesterday and he was reading the Ensign of the conference talks, he was sharing everything that he had learned about with the family, it was way cool, he cant wait for his baptism.

Then we are going to baptized Paolo and Anthony, they are twins and are 12 years old, we are pretty excited to baptize twins. This week is going to be a week for finding, we have to find a lot of people now to teach.

This New Years Eve we are going to be with Marco Antonio and his family at night for a little bit but other than that it will be a normal day to work but we kind of have to be safe because of all the drunks but we will see how it goes.

You don’t have to buy cereal, the milk here isn’t that good so it wont make it any better. I loved the pictures they were way awesome, she looks way cute and it feels good to see the mountains, well thanks for the support and I love you guys so much.
