ESPERO
QUE TUVIERON UNA FELIZ NAVIDAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Y COMIERON MUCHA MUCHA COMIDA
PARA MI!!!!!!!!!
How
is everything going in the good old Brigham City?? It looks like from the pictures you enjoyed
yourselves! For us here in Juarez it was
AWESOME!!!! It was quite the strange few
days but it all turned out great and well the best thing is that we didn’t
forget what our moms had taught us... and we made CINNAMON ROLLS!!!!!!!!! So let me start from the 24th ,
because that is pretty much Christmas here for everyone! So we went to the family Bencomos house and Hermana Bunderson talked to her family and so
did the other missionaries!! It was fun
to see all of their families!! Then we
helped the Bencomos make lunch and we
all ate together! T HIS FAMILY IS AMAZING!! I know that I have said that about a million
and a half times but really it was so fun to be with them and to feel in home! We ate ham and lots of good food and banana
cookies for dessert!!! YUMMY!!!! We then went back to our house at 5 and we had
the rest of the night to clean and to relax!!! So we came home and made a chocolate cake for
our neighbor, cinnamon rolls, and watched “The Legacy” about 5 times! Hahaha And I got caught up on my journal and we just
hung out!! IT WAS FUN!! :)
Then
we went to bed and on Christmas morning the sisters came to our house early and
we ate together and opened a few little presents!! And off we went to a meeting with the President
ALL DAY LONG!!!!!!!! IT WAS THE GREATEST
CHRISTMAS PRESENT!!!!!!!!!!! IT WAS LIKE
A SPIRITUAL OVERLOAD!!!!!!!!!!! It was
just a meeting with the hermanas (cuz the president likes us the best!) and we
talked about, pretty much everything you could talk about! All the general authorities the president
knows... Sister Derbez and his story.... the mission and his advice.... how to
prepare to be good moms.... ;) and well just about EVERYTHING!!! There also was an hermana there who cut
everyones hair! All 40 hermanas here in
Juarez!!!! It was really awesome and we
had a lot of fun!
Then
on the 26th ... well I think my comp partied too hard cuz she was
sick all day!!! Soooooo once again we
were inside! Cleaning and watching “The
Legacy” about 50 more times!!! But she
is feeling better, and you had better believe that on Saturday I was SOOOOOOOOOOOO
ready to work!!! (3 whole days inside, I
thought I was going to have a panic attack!) hahahahaha but the weekend was great too!!! We sang again at Misiones (mall in Juarez) on
Saturday and then again on Sunday!! And
we had even more people than last week!!! It was super fun and well... what do I
say!????? I AM JUST A HAPPY
MISSIONARY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
:)
Well
also I just wanted to tell you guys thank you so much for the 12 days of Christmas
you sent and also the little package with the quote book!!!! IT IS SO AMAZING!!!!!!! It really just put the cherry on the Christmas!!!
(by the way I like cherries now...) hahaha
See above ;)
…2… Are you allowed to venture out on New Year’s eve/day?
HMMMMMMMMM - we aren’t doing anything too different I dont think! We are just going to leave a little bit later on the 1st so we dont have to deal with all the drunks....
…3… How are your investigators doing?
AHHHHHH!!!!!!!!! We had an amazing experience yesterday at church! A family that we are teaching came and in gospel principles they LOVED IT!!!!!! We talked about baptism and WOW I have never felt the spirit so strong in a gospel principles class!!! The brother asked how long he had to wait to be baptized.... SO WE ARE STOKED!!!!!!!!!!!! THEY ARE REALLY PREPARED FROM THE LORD!
…4… Can you get amazing breads in Juarez like we did in Puerto Vallarta?
Hmmmmmm - YES indeed - they do make some pretty great breads here!! It is such a temptation every time we go to the grocery store!! BUT YOU KNOW YOU HAVE TO ENJOY LIFE RIGHT!!!!!!!!! ;)
…5… Do you need anything from us? (money, prayers, etc.)
NAH!!! I am doing great!!! :) Prayers are always welcomed and well I am actually enjoying being a poor missionary!!!! ;) But I am doing great!!!
I hope you all have a wonderful NEW YEAR!!!!!! (Can you believe that it is already gone????) Thank you so much for everything you have and are doing for me! This literally is the biggest blessing in my life, to be able to serve my Father in Heaven 24/7!!! I am loving it! And I am working harder and harder every single day!!! I LOVE YOU ALL!!!! AND HAPPY 2015!!!!!
Hermana Sutton
