December 3, 2013 I am not getting transferred

Me & Elder Gonzalez in our Mexican Flags

So yea. Transfer calls were last night, and I'll be staying in Montana Del Sur for at least 6 more weeks! Woo!

So on Monday night we had a cool experience. We had a Noche de Hogar (Family home evening) at the Church! It was pretty cool. The Zone Leaders put it on for our investigators and theirs, and it was awesome. There was Posole, so I was in heaven. It was there that we extended a baptismal date to one of our investigators, and she accepted! She is on date for December 14th, and we couldn't be more excited. She has a 17 year old daughter who loves to listen to us when we come over, but she goes to her boyfriend's Church, and she doesn't really want to change :( Darn Agency.


Then on Tuesday we went on exchanges! I went over to the Zone Leader's area, which is always nice because it means I get to drive the Jeep! Elder Cassiano (one of our ZL's) doesn't have a licence, so I drove :) 

My awesome zone
Then it was Thanksgiving!!! It was awesome! We had a half P-Day last Monday, so we finished the P-Day on Thanksgiving. We had from 1pm till sleepy time as P-Day. It was pretty cool. We went over to the Jones Family's house, and they fed us, and we had American Thanksgiving food. 

Then we went over to another investigator and he told us about this dream he had.  Elder Aranibar related it to baptism. That he was going through this forest of trials and hard things, but we were guiding him to the house at the top, which is his baptism. He totally got it, and we extended a baptismal date, and he is set to be baptized on December 21st! Pretty exciting stuff. 

On Saturday we had a ward activity at the church where we played Soccer with a bunch of people. We invited this kid, an "eternigator" basically someone who is an investigator forever. He came and played and seemed to have a lot of fun. He said he would try and come to church, but he got called into work, so he couldn't go :(

That is pretty much all that happened this week! It was pretty awesome. I hope everyone had a great thanksgiving and I am so thankful for all of you always, and especially at this time of the year. 

Love you! 

Elder Allen
