Hello
everyone!
This
week was crazy but lots of fun!
Alina
was baptized on December 10, which was awesome! It was so cool to see how happy
she was afterward!
Funny
story: On Friday night we were knocking on a house and a man opened the door.
He is Roman Catholic and wasn't really interested in hearing about our message,
but he was a chatter (everyone in Newfoundland is haha). He told us about how
he leads moose hunts for really rich Americans haha. There was a gun leaning up
again the wall and he was like "oh sorry, don't mind the gun, I went
hunting today..." (there were rabbits hanging off the banister on his
front porch haha). He was there with his mom, but his wife wasn't home.
Anyways, we ended up walking out of there with an entire moose steak, moose
sausages, half a loaf of homemade bread, and a jar of homemade jam. It was
awesome.
Yesterday,
we went and sang Christmas songs at the senior care center here and it was a
lot of fun. Then we had supper at Sarah's (it was moose roast) and then we went
caroling with a bunch of people from the branch. Dennis brought his accordion
and it was so much fun! We rode with Sarah and Auldrey, so of course it was a
party.
This
week I have realized how much I really love the Plan of Salvation. What a
blessing it is that God created a whole plan, centered on the Atonement of His
Son, all for our eternal progression! And what a blessing it is that through
the Restoration, we know about it! The Book of Mormon is awesome. Being a
missionary is awesome.
This
week we will be traveling 8 hours to St. John's for a Christmas Conference that
I'll be speaking at (ugh). Just kidding, it will be fun. I love Christmas.
That's
really it for this week. Today we're going to get frozen yogurt at Menchie's
with Sarah and Auldrey before Auldrey goes home for Christmas, so I'm looking
forward to that.
I
hope you're all doing well! Have a good week!

P.S.
here's a Newfie joke:
Where
do you find the trees in Newfoundland?
Between the twos and fours!
