Happy Thanksgiving! The end of November through December is far and away my favorite part of the year, especially on the mission. It's always a time when people remember their blessings and focus on the Savior Jesus Christ. I love the Christmas spirit, and the opportunity I have this year to share it with the people here in South America.
This past week has been really great! We're teaching an awesome friend named Alfredo. He received a copy of the Book of Mormon from the missionaries in 1998, yet never once set foot in a chapel until this last week. Over these past twenty-three years, the Lord has prepared Alfredo to accept the restored gospel. It's been incredible to see the light grow in his eyes, and he now has a baptismal date.
In the spirit of Thanksgiving, I'm so grateful for the blessing I have to be a missionary at this time. I'm forever grateful for the personal relationship I have with my Savior, and I hope that I can continue helping others to come unto Christ through this Christmas season.
I love you all, and I hope you will take this opportunity to remember Christ and light the world :)
