Justin's Ecuador Quito North Mission

P-day was today!  Tomorrow is New Year's Eve so Elder Miller will be in his apartment.  Today they had to be in by 6pm, tomorrow in all day, and New Year's Day they have to be in by 6pm.  This is just for safety because of cultural celebrations for the New Year. Today they went to the mall and did a little shopping, got some groceries, and went to McDonald's.

Elder Miller and his companion got to go to the home of a family for Christmas!  This was a pleasant surprise! Photo of the tie and tie clip that he got for Christmas!

Went to a zoo with the district (it was closed) and then after that, they watched a movie!  Have to be in early tonight and all day tomorrow for safety reasons.  Feliz Navidad! Elder Miller and his district!

No changes this transfer! Thursday, December 12th was Elder Miller's one year mark!!!! This past week on Friday, was the Zone Christmas Party!  It was a lot of fun and the Christmas package arrived!

Today, Elder Miller watched a movie called Seventeen Miracles, it's awesome.  Then they went and ate at KFC.  This Thursday Elder Miller hits his one year mark! This Friday is the Zone Christmas Party! Saturday is the Ward Christmas Party! Monday is transfers!  Such a busy, but exciting time!

P-day will now be on Tuesday's!  Elder Miller got sick this week, he shared an awesome story about that.  His throat was really hurting and it hurt to talk.  He went to dinner at a lady's house and her son happened to be there.  The son turned out to be a doctor!  He checked him out and wrote a prescription for an antibiotic, he's starting to feel better now!
