Week 68-- #Heisthegift

HoHoHoHoHoHo! 

How´s everyone doing? Merry Christmas everyone! Hope it´s all great there and that at least some of you have a white Christmas because I sure as heck won´t be. It´s getting to the hottest part of the year here, about 90 everyday... So it might rain like crazy but it isn´t going to snow, ha ha. 

So this week has been pretty normal, well, not really, but it felt normal. So this guy showed up to church last week and told us that he just wanted to look into the church and well... HE WAS BAPTIZED SUNDAY! How cool is that?! Literally a week, two times to church and he was ready to be baptized! He was super prepared by God too, he said that he had been talking to his girlfriend about the church for a bit of time now but never really looked at it too much until now and he loves it. He did all the readings we asked him to and prayed and got his answers and knew that it was God. His name is Micom, he´s about 26 and pretty jacked. Such a cool miracle! 

Let´s see, we also had pretty major rain this week. I took a video but it´s too big to send. It rains pretty hardcore out here, ha ha. 

Oh, so a funny story real quick. It was about 9:45 I think, after hours on the mission. We were playing some cards and laughing about something or another and then Elder Kinney made a joke while Elder Jasperson was taking a big drink of his water. Normally this would only result in a bit of coughing and stuff but after coughing for about 45 seconds he ran into the bathroom, which made us all laugh harder. We thought he was just in the bathroom coughing but he came back in the room and said `Yeah, I just threw up there`. Which of course sounded another round of near-death by laughing. It was pretty funny. 

So, sorry but I´m gonna make this one short. Hope you all have a great Christmas and remember why we have it in the first place. Keep the CHRIST in CHRISTmas. #Heisthegift.
