I will always remember my first Christmas on the mission here in Córdoba!  I´m so lucky that I was able to spend it in Spain!  In Spain Christmas Eve is called "noche buena" or "good night" where basically it´s a night where everyone parties and goes hard.  Except for the good Christians of course!! But for noche buena we went to a member´s house named Martin and spent almost all night with his family.  He gave us basically unlimited shrimp and chicken with this amazing honeynut sauce hmmmmm mama mia! And after dinner we played uno for a really long time it got super intense!  I loved it so much and I loved being able to talk to my family on Christmas!! What a great experience that was.

And also somthing happened on Christmas that was basically a miracle. Someone actually called US because they wanted to have a lesson!!! We are always having to call people and do everything ourselves.  But Stephanie and Luigi called us for us to come over and teach them a lesson! So sweet!  I felt so good and I couldn´t believe it! Other than that we didn´t have too much progress this week but I love being here and being able to get to celebrate Christmas in a different culture I love it here! And sharing the true message of Chirstmas which is celebrating the birth of our Savior and Redeemer Jesus Christ!

Stay sweet everyone,

Elder Stephens
