Who's 'Yeti' to party?
This last week was memorable! Elder Petersen and I saw a ton of success. We taught a lot of crazy people, but I definitely felt we were on the Lord's errand and doing his work even though many of those people chose not to continue to listen or to act on what we shared with them.

Christmas Eve with Tristen!
Tristen is doing super good! We had 3 pretty powerful lessons with him this week, and really helped him identify his vision and purpose in life that he's always known he has. He put it down on paper, and wrote down the daily habits he needs to develop to get there spiritually. It boosted his confidence drastically--he feels confident he can overcome the temptations and has game plans to escape them. he set his own baptismal date for the 12th!

Good Ol' Cuban Cookin
Alex is doing great as well. He missed church because he probably stayed out too late on Christmas eve, but he told us that he's decided to Stay in the US. He really sees God's hand directing his life. He broke up with his Girlfriend in Venezuela and wants to make his life here in the States, and focus on putting God central in it by preparing to be baptized. 

It's been really fun teaching Alex and Tristen. They're 22 and 19, and I feel like I can unload some of the lessons I've learned on my mission and help them apply it. It's been cool to see them get excited and make changes, even in a place as crazy as Key West.

Sorry for the short one. Hope everyone has a great week!
