Happy Day!

December 20, 2018

Awesome stuff has happened, so I will tell you about it.

First off, M got baptized! It was awesome. He's doing great and will continue to do so! He might take us ice fishing next month. He's awesome.

Second off, we had our Christmas Zone Conference this week! We drove into Edmonton and had a great time. Best part was the talent show where our Zone had the best performance. I'll try to get a video of it soon so I won't spoil it for ya, but it was pretty fantastic. Also, Elder K and I were in charge of making a slideshow for the whole mission, which was kinda our Christmas gift to them all. It took a ton of time to make last week, but the end result was worth it.

Work wise we have been seeing so many miracles around here. We are still teaching the B family, and they are on track for baptism in the future. And we also have a lady who is a miracle story a lot like M is. She had met with missionaries a year and a half ago and was on track for baptism, but she had a lot of health issues to deal with and eventually dropped off. Then, last Tuesday we got a text from her saying she was ready to be baptized! We were mind-blown! So many people are just flocking over to us that we don't even have time to knock on doors anymore!

And since I haven't said much about Elder K I thought I'd take some time to talk about him.
He is awesome, we are pretty good friends if I do say so myself. He enjoys Rugby, hoodies, and long walks on the beach. ... Oops, scratch that. I just asked and he said he actually hates long walks on the beach. It hurts his foot. I don't know what people have against long walks on beaches; I for one think they are spectacular.

Christmas is coming up next week! Though P-day next week is on Christmas eve (Monday), so I'll talk about it then.

Something I've been thinking about is, What's real? Our mission president explained it way better than I can, but the idea is that the feelings that we have and that we know to be from God are things we should remember, because if we don't then it's not really that real to us. I guess that's why journals are super nice.
