Happy Christmas!



Congratulation to Scotty for making covenants! Now our family is complete. I am so happy for you Buggsy Boy! I got your packages mother. Thank you! This is going to be the best Christmas ever!  We have had a great Christmas season so far and a great week.  We have enjoyed our new ward! We love it!

So last week we went to the Flamingo Trailer Park to visit a less active member but he didn't end up being there. We contacted the manager and then started talking to one of the residents there. His grandparents recently  died and we talked about how important it is to live each day to the fullest and that this time is the time we have to prepare to meet God. We discussed the current state of his Grandparents and explained to him more about the plan of Salvation. It is so great to share this message, especially at a time when people's hearts are softened by the season. While talking with this man a another lady came up and we found out she is a less active member who wants to start coming back to church. Later that week we tracted the whole trailer park and it was a gold mine! We found 3 more investigators and a few others that want to go to church. We are just going to bring a van in and have everyone hop in!!  Anyway, it's great to feel the spirit and help people.

One of the great things about being outbound is that we get to actually go out and physically serve people like  racking leaves,  helping people move, hanging picture frames for a lady who can't walk, or serving at an assisted living center. It's just grand!

This last week a former investigator of ours invited us to go caroling with her family! It was the best caroling experience ever! They had a trailer attached to the back of an SUV that had a karaoke screen and microphones. The whole neighborhood came and we went down the streets while the kids ran up to the doors and rang door bells. We all rode in the back! So fun!

Alright, the Elders are playing volleyball and I really want to play so until next time, have a great week! Love you all!

Hurrah for Israel!
