Good Dogs and Mexico Dogs

Whats happening fam!!! i feel like i say this every single week, but its true... Boy has this been such a big week! fill with excitement, problems, and fun! here in the south of merida, has been going pretty good! now is the time, a very special time, we are coming close to christmas!! that is soo crazy!! im rememebring all the stuff we did for christmas a year ago!! it is my favorite time of the year!! this is the part of the year, that just kills the missionaries! hahaha. but theres something much better than being home celebrating the holidays for 1 day, and that missionary work saving my brothers and sisters! i dont know if you guys have seen the new church videos of Christmas and talks about the birth of our savior and why he was born! but as a missionary, i can say that i have already seen them, but in spanish! but they are amazing!!  i invite you all to go watch and find out why god sent YOU a savior!! 

the beginning of this week we had a big meeting with president with half of our mission, just us near merida, in the northern part of our mission. and it was kind of a great spiritual planch for the whole mission. this week we visited these 3 less acitive girls, who are young sisters, 27, 17 and 15. we have to teach them outside, becasue we cant enter, but its been years since they went to church. and after the lesson they told us they didnt have anything to wear to go to church. the next day, lucky for them, our house was full of clothing for women because the sister use to live in our house, so we brought them some awesome clothing to wear and they came to church with us this sunday! they really liked it and they are going to try to start goinbg again

so i actually got a story, so this week i was walking with this member and my comp, after dropping his kids off at the school, but when we were walking to his house early in the morning to do service, i saw this dog behind a fence, but maybe after my mission ill tell the full story, but in the end, a dog bit my finger. so we went to the members house with my finger open and we cleaned it with the dirty water of mexico and we wrapped it up with a shirt. we then ate some sandwiches because all the bleeding made me hungry, and then we went to the house, to get some money and we took a 1 hour and 45 min bus ride to the hospital. only to have them look at it, clean it, and wrap it up, we had to return to find out if the dog had rabies, so we took the long bus ride back, and these busses are freezing cold with AC and i was just dying because im already yucateco and am use to the heat. we checked the dog and then we went back to the hospital and stitched it up, and then went back home to eat, and that pretty much took the whole day! boy was it such a fun day, and i learned my lessons with dogs. there are no nice dogs in mexico! so now i have these awesome stitches in my finger!! i have soo much more stories but im running out of time. ill try to send some more next week!
