This week has been so full of joy!

Hello Everybody!!! 

I hope you all had the BEST Christmas in the whole entire world! I know I sure did!!! 

                 

This week has been so full of joy! And the Light of Christ!!! Ahhh, I could just cry it was so perfect!!! So a sum up of my Christmas, I felt so much love of my Savior, so much love shared through all of our members and investigators! And so much love from my Heavenly Father!!!! So much love shared singing hymns to the elderly, sharing stories of the life of Christ with everyone, and seeing all the love in all the sweet simple gifts of time, love, and friendship! Rauquen has my heart! I love my life!!!

With that being said, I just wanted to let you all know how much I love my Savior Jesus Christ. It literally astonishes me every time I think about all the love he must have for us, to be able to carry out the Atonement, and there is SO much power in the atonement! God loves us so much! So incredibly much! I literally don´t even understand how much he loves us! I know without a doubt he is in every single little detail of our lives! Every second of everyday! I love this gospel so much! It is the only way! There´s just no other way! 

WOOOHOO!!! But I will be staying here for another cambio in Rauquen with my amazing companion! AHHH I AM SO EXCITED!!! We have so much work to do! We are ready to bring in this New Year with a BANG!!!! Watch out Curico! Hermana Christensen y Hermana Gardanier 2.0 are coming in strong!!! :) 

I don´t have much to say, but just that I love you all so much! I love this gospel with all of my heart! My mission has completely changed my life, and I am so so so incredibly grateful that I still have lots of chances to share the love of Christ, and share my testimony with literally every person here in Chile! I love my Savior, and I love you all! 

Happy New Year! 

Hermana Christensen :) 

Here is a little email I got on Christmas Eve:  "Hello, my name is K., I am 14 years old, I am a young member of the church in the current sector of her daughter, Sister Christensen. Our family invited to celebrate Christmas to your daughter and her companion, Sister Gardanier. I am very grateful for your wonderful daughter, she is a great person, certainly an example to follow. We had a dinner and then we gave them their presents, it has been a real pleasure to share this beautiful occasion with a member of your family. We hope you are well and make a beautiful time. Thank you for letting your daughter preach the gospel. I love you very much Christensen Family, I hope to meet you. Goodbye with love, K."
