hola familia! Things are wonderful here in Albuquerque! We had the baptism and confirmation for Natalia Cantua last week, and that was awesome! It was a very nice service, and it was crazy how much support from the branch she is getting. It was really special because it is the first baptism the branch has had in over a year. The work is continuing to grow though! We have two more baptisms for the branch scheduled before the year ends! Tanya and Dilan just came here from Mexico to live with there family up here, which just happens to be our branch president's family, so they are now very interested in the church, and are progressing really quickly. Also, we found a golden new investigator in the Taylor Ranch ward named Brian. We saw him for the first time like three days ago, and he texted us this morning to say that he just finished second nephi! Anyways, we are very excited to be working with him, and we will hopefully have a baptismal date with him this week. And one more bit of good news, Cedric helped bless the sacrament for the first time this last sunday! He is still doing great. solid as ever.
So we have also spent some great time helping the douglases put up all their christmas decorations. I have had a lot of fun putting up lights, singing christmas music, and making paper snowflakes and such. I Have also already received two christmas packages! one from the Ruppers, and one from the ward. Really cool! especially the tree that the ruppers sent. It looks awesome! I am starting to feel better about this christmas. Me and Elder Valladolid are getting along pretty well, and we are working a lot too. One thing I know he would love is a sweater (medium, vneck, solid color, maybe red or blue) Other than that I don't know, but he is a pretty cool guy. Well, thats about all I have to write about today, but I love you and hope you all have a great week! -Elder hatch
