Week 30 - Still in the "Jungle"

Hi Family -  I´m glad you got to go the Christmas Fireside, I watched it via satelite.   It's going to be weird having Christmas in the jungle - no snow, or anything to make it feel like christmas.   No street lights here or christmas trees or anything "festive" ......... not sure how I feel about that, so I have decided to go into denial, ha ha.  Anyway,  things here are going good still, we started teaching an awesome family about 2 weeks ago.  They have a lot of problems, so it´s really different teaching them, but we taught them about family prayer, and they said they would pray every night as a family, and with just that alone their family has changed so much -- like it's completely different visiting them now.   They have come to church the past 2 weeks too, so that is something special i´ve been able to witness lately.   Man it is SO hot here!!!!  I can´t sleep at night because it's so uncomfortable, and there is always the fear of the weird species of flying insects, that I'm pretty sure haven't been discovered yet landing on you throughout the night.   We always wake up with bites.  Also,  you should try taking a shower, or, more correctly, bathing yourself with cold water and a bucket.   But despite the temporal experience the spiritual side of things here is pretty awesome.  We're teaching and finding cool people.   We have some baptisms soon - so I'm really excited for that!   You could try sending me christmas dinner, but I don't think that would work,  ha ha.   We're going to spend christmas night with some member and supposedly we are going to cook something.   That's all I have for now! I Love you.
