Hello
again, everyone!
I
hope you all had wonderful Christmas days!
This
week in Newfoundland is a big drinking week. The night before Christmas Eve is
called "Tips-Eve" and that's when it begins. Needless to say, the
missionaries spent a lot of time inside haha.
Sister
Crump and I really did have a wonderful Christmas though. We were absolutely
spoiled by the Corner Brook Branch members. We opened gifts and had Christmas
morning breakfast at Sarah's house, and we had so much fun. We made a book for
Sarah with pictures we drew of all of the wonderful memories we've made
together this last transfer. Giving it to her was one of the best parts of my
day.
Skyping
my family was wonderful! Oh, I've missed them so much! Thank you to everyone who
has taken such good care of them while I have been away. It honestly means so
much to me that they are being so well looked after! Heavenly Father is
blessing them for sending me out here!
The
rest of our Christmas consisted mostly of eating too much Jig's dinner. It was
a hard week to do missionary work because no one wanted to talk to us until
after the holidays, but it was an awesome week to be a missionary.
I am
so grateful for the Savior and that we were able to celebrate His coming and
all that He came to do. The value of a soul is so great that God would send His
absolute best, even His Son, to save and uplift it, to bring it safely home
again to Him someday. I know that as we continue to love, remember and follow
Jesus Christ, we can feel the Christmas Spirit all year long! And, the fullness
of the gospel is here on the earth to help us do just that! It's a wonderful
time to be alive!
Love,
Sister ParkP.S. Here's a link to the Canada Halifax Mission Christmas Book 2015.
