Walking in a Winter Wonderland!

Hello everyone! 

It's been a week of craziness and wonders that's for sure. So first off, Brother Rivas (or, Fernando) is getting baptized this Saturday!! We are very very excited for him and are making all the plans which has us very busy, but a good busy!

Sister Ingersoll is a fabulous missionary and I'm very proud to be her companion. I'd met and heard about her most of my mission but had never served around her and now I have the privilege to serve around her 24/7. She's very powerful and has a great desire to be exactly obedient. We've been working hard, even in the cold!

Speaking of the cold, the temperatures have dropped dramatically. The other day it was 20 something degrees and in the city with all the skyscrapers and windchill it makes it like fifty bagillion degrees colder. Without a car we still do walking and busing and it's been a little bit of a struggle. The other day there wasn't a warm place to sit nearby, so we stayed inside a high rise building after a lesson and ate our lunch on the floor. And you know, it's moments like those when you're eating Cheetos on the floor and people are giving you weird looks that make you appreciate being a missionary. And I really really do love being a missionary.

I love you all and hope your week is fantastic!
