MERRY CHRISTMAS!!
What a long crazy week!! First of all, we watched the movie "Frozen"! Then Soeur Eyre and I were just so excited for christmas and to see our families! So that was fun but a little distracting! haha but it wa good. however! Christmas eve we insituted a new tradition in Martinique!
Like I said last week, we had the genius idea to go caroling with our members. Well it ended up being the member family in Vauclin with their cute little baby Eve (sorry i forgot to take a picture) but it was so amazing! Well, first of all the Occoliers were like 'les soeurs, its christmas eve, everyone is at catholic mass,' so that was a little hard to see people. But we ended up seing their neighbors! and one guy definitely told us to go away he was watching tv haha it was just funny because caroling is just something that no one does on Martinique. They've only seen it on american shows! but then, we saw this family that we have never managed to talk to the parents, but we know that they are there, and Soeur Occolier was so ecstactic! We went back a couple days later and the lady, Natacha, she said 'i loved the singing so much i wanna hear your message i just have friends over right now!' So we're going back later this week :) Then we went and caroled to brother Occoliers sister who has a twin sister on a mission! She's not a member though! and then she came to our ward christmas party! But ya anyways the fruits were so amazing! REAL GROWTH PEOPLE! I am owning my mission!
haha anyways, I'd like to fill you in on Rose!!!!! She is our miracle that came to church a 2 weeks ago? I don't know how, we fasted and she came. Rose has been baptized 6 times, in 6 different churches! haha b\But she is still looking for her misson in life! So we finally got a hold of her (she works a lot, she's totally awesome and she's got it all together) and she had read SO MUCH! She was even spitting preach my gospel back to us! She was like 'when you read this book you better understand the bible!!' I was just amazed at how awesome she was, what a serious awesome investigator! and she was so sick but still came to church this sunday just for the first hour!! But anyways Soeur Occolier, the member, came with us to teach the first week and bore testimony about the book, and we told Soeur Occolier at the christmas party how rose is reading and loving it, and Soeur Occolier, the member she started crying she was so happy! She loves sharing the gospel so much and really wants a friend to be baptized!!
So this week was awesome! Christmas, family, Martinique! I LOVE MARTINIQUE! and I LOVE MY FAMILY!! Mission and family are 2 wonderful things. This church is so true and this work is so lead by God. I know He can perform mighty miracles according to our faith diligience and obedience! Happy New Year everyone! I"ll be on Guadeloupe!
