Carta # 52 Dec. 25-the last letter of 2011
They asked us to come by often.
Hola familia!
Well, it's hard to hear about grandpa's conditions. My prayers are with him and y'all.
The libraries all over Knoxville were closed yesterday, so that's why I couldn't email y'all until now.
As I said on Christmas L. still hasn't been confirmed. We talked with the Spanish branch mission leader about it and he's going to call President C. We'll see what happens.
Oh, I have a couple of questions. Do I need to do anything for my college stuff? We're y'all able to see if I could begin with the fall semester instead of summer?
There are a ton of Guatemalans here and most of them speak one of several dialects as their first language. Are there any dialects in El Salvador or is it just Spanish?
Well, I hope y'all had a great Christmas! Thanks for all of the presents. I like them all.
This past week we found a family of two parents and one infant. The parents are M. and S. and their boy is C. As of right now S. seems a bit more interested. They are both open and both committed to read and pray about the Book of Mormon. When we shared the first vision S. was just like, "wow". Pretty cool stuff.
We saw a family called the R. They are a part member family. The husband is a non member. They have several kids, but we aren't sure if they are members or not. Bishop R. asked us to see them. They like the missionaries and they seemed to really like us. They asked us to come by often. They said they'll feed us and everything. They seem pretty legit.
Guess what! I'm officially all caught up on my journal! That was my Christmas present to myself haha
Oh, in the next little bit I might send home some boxes of letters and other things. I've thought of a couple more things y'all can send. I'm trying to provide my mind with evidence of baptism. So, if y'all find any pictures of baptism send them my way please. Also, if you come across any quotes from church leaders about success with baptism or something like that. I think you get the picture.
Well, that's all for this week. Things are going well here. Take care and have a great week. My prayers are with y'all. I love y'all. Tell everyone I say hi and I love them!
Love,
Elder Kreyling
