Hello Everyone.
So this week has been pretty interesting. First off... I would like to
let you know that I have officially embraced the Christmas Season... A)
We have a Christmas tree set up in our apartment, and its not just a
little one. Its a full on 6 foot high one with lights and decorations.
haha. Its pretty sweet. and B) I'm listening to Christmas music and
enjoying it... Seriously... My mission has changed me... hahahaha....
The only thing that's missing is mandarin oranges... Apparently we cant
get them here.. that was devestating to find out... Oh... I guess snow
is missing too... I've been experiencing a 50 to 60 degree December...
That's pretty weird...
Also, I got a call from Louise in Maumelle yesterday, and found out that
Larry is officially getting baptized on Dec 21!!! WOOT!!!!! So... Looks
like I'll be going back to Little Rock in a couple weeks!! I"M SOOO
EXCITED!!!! Larry is sooo ready...
Transfers are coming up next week too.. I'm not too concerned about
leaving though. I'm pretty sure I'm staying here for a bit longer.
Also... What's happening with my Country?!?! Is Canada really being
taken over by the Bloc party!?!?!!??! Oh man... And I thought that the
States were in trouble.. Everybody and their dog here is complaining
about Obama. Not that I know too much about the him or what he's gonna
do, but it sounds like Canada's got itself in quite a pickle as well...
yeesh...
Anyways... This week we're starting up a Stop Smoking Workshop. The
Elders and us have a couple investigators that need to quit smoking, and
the mission has this program that we can teach them, so we're getting
ready for that. It's kind of exciting actually. I've never been a part
of someone quitting before.
I'm really enjoying the presents I get to open each day this month too.
Today was pretty random though... Thanks for the lightbulb.... haha...
So yeah... Nothing really new and exciting is happening. I'm just
rolling with it... We're visiting our investigators quite often, so
that's exciting. We're starting to see their understanding expand, and
once they quit smoking, I know their answers will hit them harder than
ever. WOOT!!! I love the gospel...
So that's about that... I love y'all. Remember the reason for the
season. haha... The Church is true.
