Hey Fam!
Happy New Year!!!
Well super good week this week!
On Saturday we had the wedding of David and Maureen which was super great. Everything went perfect, and they loved it. Then the baptism was great on Sunday. We had it at 7 am but it was awesome. They were both so excited and after, Josue, the son, wanted to get baptized again haha.

Saturday morning, we went to help a less active cut grass by where he works. In Costa Rica, almost nobody has a lawn mower or weedwacker so they use machetes. Super tuanis [cool]. I've now got a new way to do yard work, Mom!

New Year's Eve was pretty low key, we went to eat with a few members, but I felt like the party killers because whenever we showed up, they turned the music off and everyone was a lot less excited haha, but oh well, the food was good! That night we busted out the hot chocolate and some cookies they'd given us for Christmas. That night, I was so tired I fell asleep before 10:00 and didn't even wake up when all the fireworks went off at midnight haha happy new year!

Also, on Friday night, we were waiting for the bus to head home, when a man who had drunk a little too much that night came over and sat on the curb a few feet from us. He started talking to himself and then turned around and starting talking to us, obviously angry about something. After about 2 mintutes of him yelling, I got the impression to just sing a hymn. At almost the same time, Elder Davis and I started singing the Spirit of God and almost immediately, the man calmed down and just listened to us. When we finished the first verse, the bus came around the corner and we hopped on. I don't know if he understood anything we said, but I felt the spirit so strongly. Just a really special moment that night.
But I gotta take off. Happy New Year everybody! Love you a ton!
