Busy Holiday Season!

After we talked to Landon on Christmas Day, we were expecting to hear from him again on Monday, like usual. Monday came and went, Tuesday came and went...We were hoping things were fine and that he just would skip this week and catch up on Monday the 5th. FINALLY we heard from him later in the week and were tickled to get his letter. Very busy down there!

Yes this is your missionary who finally found a moment in time to sit down and write his family a little letter letting them know how he is doing. Sorry it has taken so long to get a letter off to you but to make a long story short, it has been one heck of a crazy week thus far, and its going to get even busier really soon.

First off Monday morning we had a Multi-Zone conference and Christmas party. It was great to finally catch up with so many Elders from my group that I haven’t seen in so long. Everyone has changed a little bit but it’s all in a good way and sometimes I get to wondering if I have changed at all. President and Sister Perez both presented the certificates for baptizing families and things like that, and when they called me up to give me my certificates for the families that I was able to baptize, President Perez grabs the microphone and says “Elder Schofield also baptized a Catholic Priest in Iquitos”! I had actually just wrote him a letter (Alberto) to see how he is doing.

It was so much fun and such a boost to hear your voices last Thursday. It sounds like I got the better end of the deal because I wanted to hear your voices and you wanted to hear mine, but thankfully you all talked more, haha. You all sounded so great and I am so thankful for the great support I am receiving from you all. Before you know it I will be calling you again, CRAZY!
