FELIZ NAVIDAD

Dear Family,

Sorry if this letter is kinda short but when I was writing my letter disappeared.

Let me tell you the news about B.
She won't be getting baptized Dec 24.
She will be getting baptized the first Saturday in January!!!

Honestly, we had reached the point where we had no idea what to teach her or tell her because she has completed with everything she needs to before she gets baptized the only thing that keeps her from following through is to step away from her fear and accept the challenge.

We went to her house on Wednesday to see her and K. We didn't say anything about baptism but we talked about how through Jesus Christ we can be clean from sin. We asked her how she thought that this could be possible.  Normally people talk a lot about prayer and faith and perpously avoid saying anything about baptism, but her very first response was BAPTISM. we kept asking questions about Jesus and all and she came right out and told us, Hermanas I want to be baptized. I want to be baptized in January.

I honestly felt so peaceful that she had finally accepted to be baptized and she was doing it because she wanted to and not because we were pressuring her. She looks even happier when she listens to us and when she comes to church. I know she knows what she is doing is the right thing to do.

Her daughter B is also listening to us. She is very rebellious but Hna Plata and I know that she is going to be baptized, too. 

You have no idea how powerful this family is. They have a great potential and grand opportunities in front of them. Slowly, little by little, they are learning and seeing what we see or even better what their Heavenly Father sees in them.

Oh hey, we also had a ward activity with pinatas and tacos. We put on a talent act as missionaries and ooh I was so embarassed but all the members loved it haha

We also went to an act show thingy of members of our stake in Scrooge-s christmas. Many of the members brought their friends to the play and it was a GREAT opportunity to find new people and have ourselves a good Christmas laugh.

Whelp. I will be talking to you on Thursday.

Have yourself a merry merry Christmas.

With lots of holly and jolly and Christmas love,
Hermana Beardall
