Change 7 Week 5

Hey! This week was a really good week and full of hard work looking for new people to teach and preparing the one baptism that we had. We were really happy to finish up a good week and now we're starting fresh and hoping for an even better week. We had a baptism this last week and it was really cool, it wasn't that big of a deal it was a 9 year old kid who had been going to church and just never got baptized. He pretty much knew all that we were going to teach him and it wasn't that much work. We had a little bit of a hard time finding new people, but yesterday thanks to members references and a lot of contacting we found new people and hopefully they come to progress. Me and Elder Herrera are doing good, anxiously awaiting both of our first Christmas' here in Ecuador and looking forward to a new year. I'm coming right in on having a year out of home and it seems crazy but it has been a good first year and I hope that 2012 will be even better. I got 2 packages from mom this Tuesday, one pre-Christmas and a box that was for my birthday. I still haven't seen anymore and I don't know if I will get all that has been sent before Christmas but I have learned how to be patient with the mail and so I'm not too worried. Me and my companion will be closed in our house for the 24th and 25th of December and we can only leave to call home and to go to church seeing as it's a Sunday this year. I am going to need to know what time I can call this Christmas that works for everyone, hopefully we can make it all work. I hope that you received and liked all the photos that I sent last week, let me know. I love and miss you all very much!!! ELDER WILSON
