I don't remember what I told everybody last year but here in Mexico I
have no idea why, but in church they literally haven't mentioned Easter.
I think it was a Easter miracle though that the lesson we just happened
to be on in our Gospel Principles class was the Atonement ha. The only
traditions for Easter here is what the Catholic church does to recreate
the walk Christ made holding his cross. It's like a parade they do in the
street I think, but I have never seen it. So to celebrate I just talked
about the Atonement everywhere I went this week and yesterday night I
finished off my last Starburst jellybeans NO!!! I also had some luck and
had a nice bowl of fish soup for my Easter feast haha...yum. At least
it was spicy!
Of course the best part about this week was testifying simply to
every single person the miracle of the Atonement and how awesome and
perfect it is that Christ broke the bands of death so that we can live
forever with our Heavenly Father again. He did it for EVERYONE.
SHOUT OUT for my comp because he's sick. If everyone could pray for Elder Oliver that would be awesome. THANK YOU!!
Just a sample of Mexican rebellion ha (Don't Throw Trash) |
