Semana 70 (FELIZ NAVIDAD!)

Dear family & friends, 

If I'm being honest, Christmas is definitely not as cool here in Panama as the States. But, nonetheless, it's still a beautiful time to remember Christ! It is Christmas day, so I'll keep my letter short for y'all.

Painted a ladies house a really ugly orange. But she loved it, so I'm happy for her!

We did a ton of contacting. So much so that we saw a little girl, she pointed at us and said "they're not from here are they?" I guess my skin color kinda gave that away! jaja. But, then 30 minutes later, we contacted a completely different house and the SAME girl was there! She just yelled in shock and was like "SON LOS MISMOS!!!" We had a good laugh!!! 

CHRISTMAS CONFERENCE!!! So fun! Lots of music, talents, and food. We took pics in front of the temple. Such a good time!

Elder Bailey left us. Last minute they put him in another area. So, we traveled from the city to home. Then from home to the city. And then back. Lots of traveling. But I talked to a lady named Maria for an hour and a half. She was pretty cool!

Had exchanges which were really fun! Saw a lot of miracles!

We did another CPEC. I love sneaking into the houses of the Elders! It's so fun! They get really surprised to see us, it's sooooo funny! It's even more funny when they don't wake up on time, because then we wake them up at 7, and they pull the old "oh noooo, our alarm didn't go off...." even though we heard it go off 30 minutes ago. CPECs for sure make you tired, but they are really good!

Anyways, have a Merry Christmas everyone!! Love you all! Keep praying for my area and zone! Until Next Week! My spiritual thought is the attached audio.
