It was Christmas of course and I hope you all had a great Christmas I know j did(: The calls home were good and also all your Christmas greetings were greatly appreciated thank you(:     We had all our appointments fall through on the night of Christmas which I mean hey to be expected I guess. No worries there though we kept on working and are seeing the blessings there from that. We had to push our baptisms from last Saturday to this Saturday since there was lots of stress and such happening in the family. We want their baptism to be a stress free and good experience so we are excited for them this week.     We also picked up a new person who us really progressing. Its actually Yedis friend!! Yedi our recent convert has been telling is good friend about this amazing gospel. We went over to teach her and she is so amazing. Her name is Joslyn and she is so ready. She is very receptive to our lessons and is on date for baptism on the 26th of January!! We are so excited...

What a week it has been the time is just going by so fast!     The family we have on date for baptism this week is so exciting we are meeting with them tonight and we cant wait. They are such a great family and aww actually having us over tomorrow. Such a great family and we have really gotten close with them.     I was able to participate in the giving machines this week! If you dont know what they are google it. Such a great thing the church sponsors. We get to assist everyone who's got questions and it was lots of fun. There has been over a million dollars raised which is so amazing right!     It definitely was a little slower this week my companion has been getting migraines and hasn't been feeling well so that's been tough to have. I'm sure he's always hurting so we are working to fix that.     A crazy thing that happened though was we were going to pick up some medicine and we biked over to the store. I was carrying my helmet around and some...

Cant believe it's already pday today! Time literally is flying by! Had another great week we went bowling today for pday and I got a Turkey! Guess I'm a really good bowler aha its been fun to get to know everyone here all the elders are great!     This week we had zone Conference so we got to listen to our President which is always amazing. He has so much good insights and things to say I love listening to him. We had lunch to and it was so good. Nice to see some people from the MTC. This week we have a Christmas devotional and I'm super excited. I get to see some good friends from the MTC and I cant wait.     A really cool experience we had this week was we had a lesson with this lady who has been hard to commit to stuff. We have had lots of elders teach her but she's been having a hard time keeping commitments. We had our first lessons with her and we felt like we should put her on date for baptism! She said she would and that she wants to be baptized. The tough th...

What a busy week this has been but I am so excited to share with you everything that happened! There definitely wasn't a dull moment which was good we are keeping busy!     We met with the Bytheway family this week... yea John Bytheway is in our stake isn't that crazy?! We went into their home and spoke with them for a while. Such an amazing family they have a son and a daughter on a mission right now and it's so cool. I never thought I'd meet him but here I am in his home talking bout my life. For those who don't know John Bytheway is a really well know speaker in the church. He is so funny and is a good man, if you get the chance look up one of his talks he's a funny guy!     The members are amazing here they're always looking out for us which is cool a group of us went to chick filla and the guy there bought us all food it was so crazy but so awesome that he did that. We also went to a members home whose German and we had german potato salad..  it was int...

I got to have some time with my old companions from the MTC which was good and then we had to go which sucked.     We got snow just yesterday its definitely a lot different then home its already melting aha so my companion really enjoyed it though since he loves the snow. It's weird how warm it is and its in December. It's supposed to get colder so we will see how cold it gets.     We meet lots of families and it's weird how small the world is there's lots of connection and people from Canada and it's so awesome. We are teaching this one family that really wants to be baptise which is super awesome.     We had our person on date get interviewed which was good but he isn't getting baptized till this Saturday he keeps pushing it back which has been hard...
