Fwd: It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas

Happy Holidays Everyone!!

This week has been full of a lot of really cool miracles and amazing people!

On Monday we had an amazing experience we went to this referral from the Stuart Elders and began to teach this lady Peggy and her daughter Maggie who have previously taken missionary discussions many years ago. They recently have had a death in the family and the elders said that our message would be a message of hope. After we finished our message Peggy told us that before we had come she decided that she would not invite us back again but because it was the two of us and the sweet spirit which we had she invited us to come back to teach her more.

Tuesday I got to go on exchange down to Royal Palm Beach and it was awesome getting to see my old companion Sister Oliverson and reminisce about our Miami days.

Wednesday we visited with this less active who was the first sister missionary in Hong Kong and it was amazing to see how far the missionary program has come since then and how different my mission is from hers as well as to meet a little bit of sister missionary history.

Thursday I was in Idaho!!!!

Just kidding but we did knock Idaho lane which was right by Preston street. Super funny! Also on Thursday we got to meet with our super cool investigator Tyler (who is an electrician - used all the lingo I learned from my dad) who grew up christian but hasn't been recently and wants to now develop a relationship with Jesus Christ and I'm so excited to help him with that.

Friday we tried a bunch of people; less actives, former investigators, potential investigators, etc..

Saturday we got a new car and man it is super nice!



We also had dinner with the Pointons (the kid we just baptized) and I really love this family and it was just good to see how unified they are now that the two younger kids are baptized. Truly families are eternal and I'm so glad I got to help this family get a little closer to being eternal together.

Sunday was good we got to watch the awesome Christmas Devotional which if you missed it you should definitely check it out because it was all about Christ and it's a great way to start the Christmas season. visit: https://www.lds.org/broadcasts/archive/christmas-devotional/2016/12?lang=eng&cid=HP_SU_4-12-2016_dCN_fEVT_xLIDyL1-B_


Well that's all for this week and I hope that all of you are having an amazing holiday season!!

Also Floridians decorate real good for christmas with tons of christmas lights, especially since they don't have to put them up in October due to snow. Here is a cool house we found that has the lights turned to music and they play the music through speakers so we could actually watch it.



Also I got to decorate a cute little Christmas tree for my desk!!


​Love you all!
