That´s right.... Noche de Luz is officially in FULL SWING!!! Which basically means life is crazier than ever... but that´s just how i like it! :)
We had our first performance on Saturday night in Florencio Varela, and it went GREAT!!! Everyone was SO excited! That day was absolutely nuts though. We were trying to get as much done as possible early because we had to leave at 2:30 to catch the train. We had an awesome experience though! We have a new investigator who´s name is Ana, who has four cute little kids. We met her when we did a contact with her mom Ester outside of their house. ANyways... after we first met them and returned for the next cita they weren´t there, so we were kinda worried that they weren´t really interested. On Saturday we went back though, and when we showed up Ana was looking out the window in the front of the house, and looked like she was about to leave, so we figured they wouldnt let us in. When she opened the door and asked if she was waiting for her kids or something, she said " no, no, no... we were waiting for you two to come!" and rushed us into the house. We then had an AMAZING lesson with their family. It´s amazing how the Holy Ghost accompanies us to the houses we go to, because all the time people comment on the peace and feeling they have when we´re in their house, but really it has NOTHING to do with us... we´re just the intermedio to bring the spirit there. Man! Can i just say I LOVE missionary work!! It´s incredible!
Alright... so... Saturday´s performance of Noche de Luz went great, and then they told us that the next day (when we had NdL in Banfield... my stake center)... that ELDER ZIVIC OF THE QUORUM OF THE SEVENTY WAS COMING WITH HIS WHOLE FAMILY!!! Man... if that doesn´t make ya a lil nervous performing I don´t know what will! Before the performance started when we were practicing EVERYTHING went wrong too! We had problems with the screen, Elder Baggaley´s trumpet got dropped and the bell bent, the chapel was almost impossible to fit everything in, and a bunch of other things. BUT:... in the end a lot of prayers were answered because the program went GREAT!!!! :) Everyone performed well, and we had a bunch of investigators show up too, including a guy who we had just done a contact in the street with 2 days before! :) It is SO amazing to get to participate in this, and share my testimony with people all over Buenos Aires through music! We still have 6 more performancse in the next two weeks, so I´m sure I´ll have lots more good stories to share! I just can´t wait til we get to record it in a few weeks... then i´ll be able to send the DVD and CD of it home to you guys! : )
ANyways, I love you tons and miss you lots, but at the same time I absolutely love life!! :) It´s amazing. I wish you all well, and I´ll talk to you in a few weeks! :)
Besitos!
