Hi
mom!
1. What are the names of the other Elder's in your
apartment?
1. Elders Welch and
Williams.
2. Are you liking living in the 4 man? Or do you
prefer to live with just a companion?
2. It has its ups and
downs. I don’t know…it’s fun but more work.
3. Did you get any mail from us this week?
3. Yes! I got the late
Thanksgiving package with the pumpkin bars. Thanks so much!
4. When did you feel the happiest this week?
4. Ummm that’s a hard
one. I don’t think I was ever really sad this week. But it was pretty great
when we were trackting and a family let us in!
This week was great! We
worked hard and tried our best. We were able to teach a couple of great lessons
to our investigators and work through our members in trying to find more people
to teach.
The Light the World
thing has been so great for helping us find people. It makes it so easy to
strike up a conversation with random people on the street. I hope you all are
trying your best to do the ideas of service that they came out with for this
month. Watch the videos and read the scriptures with them. They will help the Spirit
be with you stronger.
This week we were trackting
in some wealthy neighborhoods and the very last door on the street was a family
that has the last name of St. Claire, weird, right? Like who has a name with a
period and a space in it…weirdo's. Ha! But we knocked and talked to the wife
while the husband pulled up. They were so nice and let us in we shared the Light
the World video with them and offered to come back and teach them about Jesus Christ
and what we believe. They told us we could come back! It was so great. I’ll
keep you posted on if they go anywhere or not. But I just love the fact that even
the rich are prepared for the gospel. It is for everyone!
I have one request. My
companion and I would love some matching Christmas pj's. Like the classic ones
that have Christmassy things on them. That would be wonderful. You’re the best.
Love you!
