1. Our Starbucks trip on Christmas Eve
2. How we spent Christmas! In the hospital ha-ha visiting a bunch of members and investigators.
3. An awesome part of our area.
Ok first, I’m really sorry Brooke, Stu, and Katie that I didn’t get to talk to you guys on Christmas. We had some emergencies come up. I was only able to talk to Mom and Dad for the hour before I had to be in the house. I only saw Colin and Jen for like a minute. But it was really great to see you guys!
This week was crazy! It went by so fast.
Christmas Eve was awesome and it fell on our p-day so we basically just stayed downtown and went shopping and did touristy stuff. Then we had a ward Christmas thing for people who don’t have family here.
Christmas day we did studies and then went to visit some people. We had to go to the hospital and visit people and we really didn’t do all that much, but everything took forever because of transport. It was a really awesome day though and talking to Mom and Dad was way fun. I was glad that it didn’t make me homesick! Yay! Ha-ha.
On Thursday we had a conference with the Europe area president and it was really amazing. They showed this video and we were all a mess. I think the missionaries in our mission have really been struggling but the video definitely helped.
After the conference I realized I need to be studying a lot more effectively in order to stay focused in this area so I’ve been reading the conference Ensign like every second we are in the house and I just can’t get over how incredible this session was.
After working really hard to stay focused and be exactly obedient, my companion and I were so blessed to have six investigators in church. All of which were not even the people we had been calling or planning with. They just showed up! It was really great and I know Heavenly Father blesses us when we are really trying our hardest.
Sorry I’m short on time today because we needed naps. Like, really badly ha-ha. But I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas, and thanks to everyone in the Westminster ward for the Christmas cards!
I love you guys so much!
Stay strong, the Church is true! I love you!
