Turning 20
MERRY CHRISTMAS!! Isn't it just the best time of the year? Everyone is just so happy and wanting to serve others. And that is what we did a lot of this week... SERVICE!! Being like our Savior and serving others is something us missionaries love to do, especially around this time of the year! Here are some fun things that happened this week...
Our mission has been doing more and more with technology and social media. One thing we did as a mission is that we had an ad go around on Facebook for people who wanted missionaries to come and carol to them! It was a hit! So Tuesday and Wednesday night we went caroling! And there were some people who signed up to have us carol to them! One person lived on the reservation, so we had to go christmas eve in the day time and they were so kind! Honestly brought the spirit so much and it was a cool way to spread the gospel. Especially through one of my favorite things... MUSIC!
Christmas Caroling
Christmas day and Christmas eve were a blast!! We had 2 dinners christmas eve, and christmas. We hung out with some other missionaries, talked to our families, ate too much food hahaha. But honestly, it was an amazin day.
Family on Christmas Day
Yesterday (Sunday) was a day full of MIRACLES! And it was also my bday woot woot! I am now the big 20 and it honestly didn't even feel like my birthday. But in was able to talk to my family for a little bit. But here's the cool miracle.... we started teaching this guy named Jordan, and he literally elect. Our elders quorum president in the YSA got back from his mission about 6 months ago, and he literally talks to everyone about the gospel. And Jordan is a really good family friend, so we went over to his families home and taught Jordan about the Restoration of the Gospel. He already has such a strong testimony. He told us that he wants to be baptized, that he wants to pray and read the Book of Mormon, and that he wants to meet with us like every other day hahaha. He is soooo cool! So keep him in your prayers!
Our roommates go and volunteer at a horse place where they clean horses! Me and my comps haven't gone, mostly because horses are scary lol.. but our roommates met a marine there who wants to learn more about the church! YAY! So he actually ended up coming to church yesterday and he LOVED it! He is wanting to start bein taught and we're so excited about that!
We found out today that our friend Mark we've been teaching is going to get baptized on Wednesday! Yay! Honestly, we've been praying for him with every single prayer... SO EXCITING!!
Thank you everyone for your kindness and love! I love being a missionary, and even though it gets a little hard around the holidays with missing home, I felt so much love this week. Especially talking about Jesus so much to people. This Christmas truly was centered on our Savior!
