Dear Family, Friends, and the like,

I will try to write for the past two weeks since i didnt get to write one last week! Two weeks ago we had the Christmas musical devotional that we set up with the Sister Missionaries! It went so well! We had more people there in the chapel than we usually do in Sacrament meeting! Everyone seriously sang and performed so well and the Spirit was so strong! So lucky to be a part of that. Two weeks ago was super warm too! 30's and 40's almost everday! There was one day when there was no more snow on the ground! It was also SUPER foggy for a couple of days and it was almost impossible to drive on the roads! Kind of scary! This week has been fun too. We keep showing a lot of people the He is the Gift video and everyone seems to love it. I personally love the video so much. On Thursday we had some appointments that fell through and we needed to get to someone's house on the other side of Lake Bemidji...so we decided to walk the whole mile and a half across it and then back! Haha super fun! On Saturday we were able to give 5 people Priesthood blessings. Such a cool opportunity. I think it's incredible how whenever we give someone a blessing, whether they a member, less-active, or nonmember, they are always so appreciative and you can tell they felt the Spirit. we were also able to help out a part-member family move out of their house which was cool. All the peope in ward are so nice and fun! I love saying hello to everyone on Sundays at church because I love them all so much! Most of them are pretty darn goofy too! One old guy was wearing a bright red sport coat to church yesterday! Haha well anyways I hope everyone has a very Merry Christmas! Don't forget the real meaning of Christmas!...it's Christ, in case anyone forgot ;)
