They had a wonderful Christmas, being invited to members both on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day and subsequently on New Year's Eve; and they've been really busy tracting and visiting less-actives.
Due to the bus strike, and all the walking that entailed, Elder Read suffered quite badly from blisters, but by last Monday, 31st December, they were very much better. That night Elders Read and Wright went to a family for a meal, and the Mission President had given all the missionaries permission to stay with members until midnight, although it would still be necessary for them to have their usual 8 hours of sleep, as that is essential. Robbie's birthday was on 2nd January and they were going to a Peruvian family for a meal that day, and the sister was going to make something special for Robbie.
Dice Robbie:
Las ampollas están mejorando un montón Gracias! Ya no duele mucho :) Hoy día - el 31 de diciembre - vamos a ir a las casa de una miembro y su familia. El presidente de la Misión esta dejando que cada misionario se pueden quedar en la casa de los miembros hasta las 00:00 y a esta hora hay que salir y caminar a piso. Podemos comer las uvas y luego ya vamos, y quiere que cada uno tiene 8 horas para dormir, entonces necesitamos dormir 8 horas esta noche, no importa que hora llegamos a piso, 8 horas es esencial! Pues ayer encontré una familia peruana!! :D Tenemos una cita para cenar, el miércoles para mi cumpleaños :D :D :D La hermana va hacer algo especial para mi, y comida peruana :D jaja.
This mission has a very high baptism rate. The goal for 2013 is 555 baptisms. The goal for 2012 was 404 and they smashed it!
