hello famthanksgiving was way sweet. haha, maybe to you it sounds boring but i loved it. to start out every new transfer the zone leaders go to the presidents house to learn what we need to teach our zone to have success for that transfer. so we left our pension at 8 o clock and got to the mission home at about 8 30. at 9 o clock we had breakfast, we ate a bunch of facturas and a lot of juice. then at 9 15 we started the capacitation. where president and his wife and the assistants give talks. then at 1 o clock we went and had lunch. we had mashed potatoes with chicken haha. there arent very many turkeys here. we at for a half an hour then went back to listen to the talks. they finally ended at 4 o clock. then we went back to our area and got to work. and that was basically thanksgiving. a 7 hour meeting haha. but i honestly loved it. we found a way cool lady in my new area thats from peru. and 17 years ago she was recieving the lessons and was about to get baptized. but the day she was going to get baptized her dad showed up and wouldnt let her. but now she is in argentina and her dad is in the spirit world. she went to church and she loved it. i am serving in a ward now and about 80 people went to church. it was amazing to see that. my last area it was and everage to see between 30 to 40. my first sunday in my last area there were 17 that assisted haha. so i am way excited to be here. i am pretty sure this will be my last area in the mission but we will have to say what the big guy upstairs says. it seems like we usually get lunch here in this area. there are enough members haha. so we will see what its like. i think my handwriting is good in those letters because i have written in my journal so much in the mission. i will give you the details of how to call when they send us the information. haha, no we dont decorate the apartment for christmas. christmas here is nothing like it is in the states. they only talk about christmas like the day before haha. the new pench is way nicer then my last one. its smaller, but nicer. it was pretty hard to leave my last area but i am over it. theres great people everywhere. but i love everyone so much. thanks for all the e mails and have a good day
