Eusebio Ayala

Hello everyone and Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year´s!

My second Christmas in Paraguay has come and gone which is just amazing to me. I can still remember in detail my Christmas from last year in good ole La Paloma. Now it´s a year later. Que rápido que pasa el tiempo! I really enjoyed talking to the family on Skype. That´s always a good time for all. The rest of our Christmas eve was pretty uneventful. Our landlords promised us a big feast a couple of days ago, but they didn´t deliver when the time came. We drank some cheap soda and ate some bread. Yeah! We went home after and I had a bowl of Trix and a grilled cheese sandwich with "cheese". I´m still in good spirits so it´s all good, but I hope everyone had a better meal than we did here haha. Then we went to sleep with the lovely sound of fireworks all through the night.

Christmas day was uneventful as far as Christmasy things go. Paraguay seems to have a Christmas Eve but they don´t do anything on the actual day. We went to church and an investigator named Antonio came for his second time in church which is sweet. He´s pretty much impossible to find so we haven´t been able to teach him anything pretty much, but he´s started coming to church and he tells everyone that he wants to get baptized. Now we just have to teach him the lessons. He´s our focus for now, and we´re working on finding some new people to work with.

Other than that, it´s just business as usual. For those that don´t know, I´m still in good ole Eusebio Ayala. I´ll be here until February probably, but we´ll see when that happens. I´m still with Elder Milne so this is our third change together. Now he´s tied with Elder Sperry for the longest time spent with a companion. Yeah!

I hope you all had a good Christmas full of greatness! We made it through and nobody got hurt or sick so it was a successful holiday I think. That´s all I´ve got for the week. I love you all!

Love,
Elder Morris
