This week has been super awesome! We had an activity at the church and my family that I`ve been working with for a long time, Antonio Ferro and his daughter Ruth (Pamela`s family, whose going to serve her mission in Oregon) came to the activity! It was exciting, and they had a good time . . . but they didn`t come to church on sunday. Oh, by the way, I hope everyone had a great Easter! Easter here is kind of lame . . . I thought the culture in the US was kind of lame when it came to Easter, but here it`s even worse, haha. All week long and all day long, they have their customs of fasting and carrying a giant cross up a hill on friday, and at night, most of them are on the streets getting drunk. We didn`t sleep at ALL on thursday night because of the parties going on. But yeah, I hope everyone was able to not only remember the real meaning of Easter (because a lot of people here remember it) but learn it, live it, and apply it every day. Christ gave His life for us. He suffered in the Garden of Gethsemane for everysingle one of us and Atoned for our sins there. He died on the cross, but on the third day, he rose again! Through Him we can be made completely clean of our sins, and through Him, we can live again and return to live with our families for eternity, but only through living and applying the restored Gospel of Jesus Christ every single day of our lives.
I love you guys so much! Sorry this email is a little short, I`ll try to do better next week. Love you all!!!
