i'm so glad to hear you are having such a good Christmas season. i hope this season is good for everyone back home. so yesterday we tracted into this very mean man that just wanted to bible bash so we just left. but ya i had a desire to punch him but i'm a missionary and i'm bigger than that so i didn't. but he chased the spirit away and we had to pray to get it back but other than that its been great.ya having christmas come really does make me miss home a little bit but i'll be fine. anyway love you Baba

ya waiting for the call is the most exiting thing EVER!!! ya but it will be worth it in the end. ya about the parables that you were talking about maybe when Jesus taught like that it was to teach the meek and humble the ways of the lord. but the rich and prideful could not interpret the parables so only those who were in tune with the spirit could learn the mysteries of god. anyway mission is awesome and you will love it so much. love you
