This last week was quite nice. The wonderful Christmas Spirit is already beginning to work its magic! We've had wonderful opportunities to share the gospel this week, and we've also been able to talk to every one about the new Campaign, "Ilumina el Mundo"! I believe it's Light the World in English. And the video is wonderful. Every one needs to go to mormon.org (it's displayed right up at the front) and watch it as soon as you possibly can if you haven't seen it already. As a missionary, I invite a lot of people to follow the example of Jesus Chist, usually inviting them to follow his example and be baptised. That is an important example to follow, but not the only example we should follow. Christ's ENTIRE life was such a grand example for us, and his entire life was service. He came not into the world to be served of men, but to serve them, that video and the attached campaign give us that very invitation. To follow Christ's many examples of service and not only remember Christ this Christmas, but follow Him. Show the world that even though there are horrible things happening, there's still light to be brought. And it's so easy to do it this season. There's a calendar with suggestions for every day and every thing.
It has been so wonderful to begin to share this with Argentina this week. Many people here talk about how many complicated things are happening here and in the rest of the world, so it's been wonderful to be able to pull out our little cards and show them that they can do some thing about it! Your neighbourhood is your world to light! Do every thing you can to light it!
There are so many great things happening in Argentina, in Buenos Aires, in Merlo and in Ferrari! I wish I had more time to talk about it all but it just flies by here. I hope all are well and I hope I can hear great stories of people helping to light the world.
Un montón de amor,
Elder McDonald
