haha I never understood that song until the mission.. now it makes so much sense!
This
week has been rough... everybody takes Christmas and New Years off to
go on vacation, so nobody was home!! I walked quite a bit this week just
looking for people who were in their house..
We also were
supposed to have a baptism this weekend.. however when the missionary
showed up Manuel confessed that he felt like it was all going too fast
(and he may have a point... we met him 3 weeks ago). He
has been progressing so well! He used to be an alcoholic, but since our
first lesson with him he hasn't drank once!! He also said that December
has been the hardest month in his whole life, because his wife just died
and he feels really lonely, but he knows that the Lord sent us to his
house to pull him out of his depression. He is still progressing really
well, he will just need a couple more weeks to get ready!
New Years Eve is super big here and
it was really hard to sleep that night. At 12:00 they lit off sooo many
fireworks! It was crazy! I felt like a war was going on! It was a
contant flow of rockets going off for literally 10 minutes! I seriously
thought that Nicaragua came to take over Costa Rica and they were
dropping bombs.
