WEEK 80
Had a great week! Here are the highlights —
- ZONE CONFERENCE
We had our Christmas Zone Conference. It was the best zone conference I've been to. They had a Christmas program so we heard a bunch of Christmas stories and sang a bunch of songs. After, we played a bunch of games and broke a piñata. We had secret santas and I got a poncho that I now wear to bed every night cuz it's freakin cold here! Our mission president gave everyone gifts and then I got some from my parents.

- NAVIDAD
It was super cool to spend my last Christmas here in Mexico. I was in a trio so it felt kinda weird but it was super fun! We honestly did nothing for Christmas day but Christmas Eve, we went to a member's house and played a bunch of soccer. Then I had to check in with all the companionships in my zone, but after, we had pasole! We finished by playing one of the most intense games of Uno I have ever played. We prolly got home at like 11:30 and talked for 30 minutes. At midnight, when Christmas Day arrived, we opened the packages our parents sent us and stayed up till 2 am playing with the gifts. On Christmas, we came to church and played soccer and then went shopping for a baptism the rest of the day. At night, we went to a member's house and she gave us presents.

- BAPTISM
Alonso was baptized! It was super cool to see how much he's changed. When we first found him, he was on drugs and drank a bunch but now he's a good lookin' dude and loves church. There were a bunch of people at his baptism cuz he's literally friends with everyone at church. And then after, we got to munch on some pizza and cake.

- NEW COMP
I got a new comp and his name is Elder Ricardez. He's also from Tobasco, like Elder Fuentes, but my new comp actually likes to work. He only has 2 transfers left on his mission, but he's a super good missionary. Also, he talks quite a bit so that's nice cuz my old comp was a mute.

- NEW YEAR'S
In Mexico, New Year's is bigger than Christmas so everyone was going nuts and there were a bunch of parties. It was Sunday, so we went to church and then after, I got to confirm Alonso. That was super cool! After that, the sisters called and asked if I could baptize one of their investigators, so we had a surprise baptism — which was cool and then we had cake. We went to a member's house to eat and had some sort of chicken and pasta. Then we munched on apple salad and cake. We got home at 9:30 and I checked on the companionships in my zone then we just hung out til midnight.

On our way home from transfers, the car we were in was hit. Luckily, the person who hit us had a brother who owns a repair shop so it all worked out.
