What a great week!
Thanksgiving was fantastic. Eating four times is always a pleasure. Actually, not really. It's just one of the challenges we face in this mission. In Cambodia they trudge through rivers with their bikes, in Latvia they have nobody to talk to, and in South Texas we eat. It is a test of charity. By the fourth meal, we are seriously only eating out of love for the people. Latinos love when you eat their food.
The picture below was taken after meal three with the Alvarados. Those are the Alvarado twins, Josúe and Saul. They recently got home form their missions and have become our best friends since then. Saul has been home for 5 weeks and Josúe got home the Saturday before Thanksgiving, even though they left the same day. They help out a lot with the missionary effort here.
Also this week we had a couple zone meetings with a zone exchange, so Elder Cannell was my companion for a day. That was certainly fun. 
To finish the exchange we did a zone testimony meeting. Missionary testimony meetings are pretty much the best. Just imagine a bunch of dedicated servants of God sharing their experiences and testimonies. 
I guess I will just invite you all to watch the new Christmas message from the church. christmas.mormon.org
