La Navidad? (Semana 16)

¿Comó han estado?
How have y'all been doing?
Well it is almost Christmas!! The next time I write will be the 25th of December!! That’s so weird to think that its almost Christmas and I will get to talk to my family so soon!! Ok so Navidad aqui in Mexico is pretty cool because they celebrate on the 24th AND the 25th!!! So that means a bunch of food and fun!! 
So this week we had the Ward Christmas Dinner and Elder Diaz y yo had the chance to act in a Christmas play that they put on. It was pretty fun and it gave me a little bit of embarrassment. We also brought Evan to the party with us and he wanted to bring his friends so we showed up with like 4 kids which was actually pretty cool to see and we are now teaching 3 of them!
This week we also had intercambios, where a missionary comes for a day and my compañero goes to the other area. So we had them with the Lideres de Zona, the leaders of about 30 missionaries. I had to stay in the area to lead which was my first time doing it with someone that wasn't Elder Diaz. It was quite the learning experience because I had to do literally all of the talking, which is kinda hard cause I still am not that great con Español but it went really well. We had about 5 lecciones and contacted a little bit and ended the day with campechanas because its tradition hahaha. 
We don't have much time but the last thing is that we ended the week with a carne asada with our friends, Laura, Cesar, Fanny y Edgar, y Justin. We ate so much carne and it was so so good. That is one of the customs here in Monterrey, Carne Asada. Everyone eats it about once a week and it is so amazing. The streets are just filled with smoke and the smell of carne haha.

Well I got to go!
Just remember to focus on Christ this Christmas. De hecho Christmas in Spanish means "more Christ"!

Les extraño y les amo!!
Con amor
