yuuuuup it's Jan 6th...aka like the biggest fiesta you have ever seen! Ok, really last night was the biggest fiesta of my life. It was like Christmas Eve and New Years Eve mixed together....so huge. THERE WAS AN ELEPHANT right outside our piso just parading down the street!!! Like, what?! It was the funnest party I have ever seen in Spain. It just made my love for Elche that much stronger. I love Elche SO MUCH! I have some sick pics comin soon. Basically they just celebrate the 3 kings. One king was black and riding the elephant and then two others were just white...how boring...riding the camels. They had such an awesome drumline just pounding it out and dancing like fools. So funny. I have some super cool videos. They just had thousands and thousands of people in the streets with their kids picking up all the candy that the kings and other performers throw at them. Loved every second of it.
We also had a huge party in Murcia with 60 missionaries and Pres Deere and Hna Deere. Also so much fun. We did a talent show and ate tons of good food and had the most spiritual conference I have ever had. The main topic was the Atonement and I LOOOOOOVE the Atonement!!! It is like the greatest thing to study and to understand. I just cant get enough of it. It was amazing. The talents were also hilarious. I never knew that natives could act!!! haha it was so funny.
On the work side....we are still working strong with our investigators. We are teaching a whole family now!!! That one aunt of Clara we found knocking doors, yeah we are now teaching her family. I love them so much. We just havent had much working time due to the milllions of fiestas that are going on but we are going to work hard with them this week!!
Transfers....so depressing. I freaking LOVE Hna Hubbard and she is leaving me! Im super sad. Hna Theobald is coming on Wednesday to be my compy. I never like changes lol we'll see how they go!
LOVE YOU GUYS! Keep spreading the Gospel and reading those scriptures!!!! If you arent reading your scriptures and praying, you won't have a desire to share the Gospel :)
Love
