Merry Christmas Everybody!
Christmas is a great holiday because we remember Christ and there is a special spirit that surrounds it. I hope that each one of us can carry that spirit throughout the whole year and not just reserve it for one month.
This past week was pretty normal. We helped our landlord plant 1000 more tulips. His place is going to look beautiful in the spring. We also had an awesome lesson with an investigator named Andrea. (By the way, we are also teaching a girl named Marissa). She got divorced about two months ago, and we have been teaching her. We have been able to see a huge difference in her life. Her feelings of anger and distrust have gone away and she feels peace and happiness through learning about Jesus and applying the teachings in her life. She is going to be moving from Lehi to Eagle Mountain on Wednesday and we are going to help her with a couple people from the ward. She accepted a baptismal date for the 4th of February, which is a big step for her, but we think that later she might even want to change it to be a little sooner. It doesn't really matter as long as she is able to enjoy the blessing of making this sacred covenant with Heavenly Father.
I am excited to talk to everyone on Christmas Day! It will be a million times better than last year, for sure.
Share the joy and peace of the real meaning behind Christmas! Isaiah 9:6
Love,
