Brady's Christmas Post



They moved our p-day to today because its Christmas so that's why i didn't write this last Monday! Everything is going good :) i don't get to call this Christmas though cause im here. But its ok :) this Christmas has definitely been one to remember. The only thing i have had to focus on is the birth of the savior. And giving back what he did for us by giving him these next 2 years. I really have been pretty happy this Christmas. I can not wait to get out to Chiclayo! 3 more days! i leave Tuesday morning for Chiclayo and we fly there. My Spanish is definitely not ready haha but that's ok cause nobody's is. i feel like im where im supposed to be with Spanish. its really hard to understand them cause they talk so fast. unless its about church stuff then i can understand pretty much everything! i just know a ton of church words. We went proselyting this last Saturday! Me and my comp were put on a sick spot. Its called Lima Punte or something and its like a point that sticks out of the land. We were surrounded by ocean on both sides. the beaches are not that pretty here though. But my comp didn't talk at all. Thank goodness they put a teacher with us though to help us. So i pretty much had to do all the contacting and talking and the teacher would help if she had to. We got inside a house this time too! i was so excited. well we got into 2 houses but one was this crazy guy that was addicted to drugs. it was pretty scary. i could not understand a word he said and he just pretty much told us we were wrong. but we got into this other house and taught a 23 year old girl named Moriah. i pretty much taught half of the first lesson! the 1st lesson is way simple now. it was soooo fun though to actually teach a real girl. i loved it!! She seemed way happy after! i think the church was exactly what she was looking for. i can not wait to start teaching in Chiclayo and actually progress investigators. its crazy that my mtc experience is almost over though. i have loved it. i have learned a ton about myself.
Hows Christmas at home? Happy birthday the other day kenzie!! That sucks that usu lost. but awesome that they finally made it to a bowl game. Mom its ok that i don't have a package from you guys here. i got your letter! i loved it! ill try and send some stuff home when i get to Chiclayo. You guys should watch the bible videos on lds.org. they are about the saviors birth. i have realized how much i love my family and how blessed i am to have such an amazing family! family is so important. We are so lucky and so blessed to have a savior. Because of him we can be happy! He gave us the best gift ever. Im so thankful for the birth of Jesus Christ and his atonement. i can not wait to share it to the people! i love you guys! Merry Christmas family!
