I was missing our Christmas traditions a lot this year. It was really weird the speaker in Sacrament meeting on Christmas Eve was a really powerful rm who gave a great talk that I really loved, but in his talk he quoted 2 of the songs from the Forgotten Carols. I just couldn't believe it but it was a really nice tender mercy I'll call it to get a small piece of our Christmas tradition all the way over here.
This week otherwise has been really chilled and laid
back. We haven't really been able to teach anyone but we're starting to
get really excited about January. We had a finding activity on Friday
where we were caroling and passing out so many pass along cards, pamphlets and
Book of Mormons. We were planning on gathering a bunch of people at the
end of the finding activity and then standing on a park bench or something and
just preaching to loads of people, but it started raining hard right at the end
so we didn't get a chance. We might do it this Friday though so that
would be sweet. Kind of a miracle is that just yesterday we got a whole
bunch of texts from the referral office. We got 10 referrals from the
referral office because of the finding activity which is just crazy. I
think in my whole mission total I've only got about 4 or 3, so that was
awesome.
Of course the highlight of the week was to talk to you guys
on skype. Now I can truly say "I'll be home for
Christmas"
I did cut my hair super short and I'm really happy about the
way it looks so I'll send you a picture with my new cool haircut on Monday.
To Dad:
It was so awesome to skype you guys. Everything was
just perfect.
As I said about the speaker in sacrament meeting talking
about the forgotten carols I was meant to ask you if you could maybe put the
music for the forgotten carols in my folder so I can listen to it?
