hola familia this week was wondeful it was good to talk to you all we didnt do much for christmas after i called you we went to a members house for dinner then went home. The next day we had to work but we contacted alot of people and i have been practicing my contacting since sometimes i dont say the right words but we contated over 140 people in 3 days and my comp made me do all the talking so it was great i think i can talk perfect now in spanish WHEN I CONTACT but this week was very long we worked really hard.  The family barrios didnt get baptized we went over to the house to have the interviews on miercoles but when the elder interviewed her she was very upset so we all talked to her for awhile and i guess there are a few problems with her husband but dont worry she is still going to be baptized but the husband might have to wait just a little bit longer but they are a wonderful family and very strong.  today for new years we are having dinner with a member ana maria she is single and alot of fun to be around we hve to be home by 9:30 so prob no fireworks,  This change with hermana cruz has been so amazing im learning so much from her and it makes it alot more less stressful.  This week i have been thinking alot about all the many blessings that i have and how grateful i am for the many blessings i have recieved and what the greatest gifts i have, i read in docterine and c seccsion 14;7 and the greatest gift i have is the gospel in my life and how much more happier we are when we are keeping the comandments and enduring to the end.  i also read a tlak in the liahona may 2012 for family night ha read this talk on elder donald L. Hallstom is about be converted to his gospel through his church. Learning the gospel is lifetime we shoud all try to have a desire to learn more everyday doesnt matter the mistakes we have made in our life strive to do better and always know that you have a father in heaven that loves you and wants to hear you.  ¨Repent and you can be forgiven of your sins¨. I love you all make it a better we and strive to do better make new goals for this year and remember serving brings more happiness among us.  I know that we are more happier with the gospel in our lives i have seen it change my life and im so happy that i have this opportunity to be serving that is the greatest gift i can give love you.  Hermana ericon le quiero
