Hello Everybody!!!!

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!!!! I hope that
your Christmas dreams came true! I
know that mine did! Well I feel
like I have told everything after getting the chance to call home yesterday but
I do have one very cool story I will share.
So our recent converts, Ann and
Jeanie, that are so good to us and that are just awesome have been working to
get their family involved in the church too. So we have set it up to where they have a Family Home Evening
and then we come and share a gospel message and teach the kids to pray and sing
and it is always really fun and really good. This past week we brought the DVD titled, "The Restoration"
it is about 20 minutes long and the spirit was very strong as we shared our
testimonies that what they just watched in the video is true and that the Book
of Mormon is the word of God! Well
Sunday Ann's sister and nephew that were at Family Home Evening decided to come
to church! It was so awesome to
see them there and to watch their whole family grow in the gospel together!!!
Well, there is so much to say but I
don’t have much time today! We had 10 refugees come to church this Sunday! They didn’t understand much of what was
said but to see them there smiling and trying to sing the Christmas songs and
to see all the members embrace them was amazing! I am sure Heavenly Father was pleased to see his children in
his house after they have been through so much tribulation. I am reminded of one of my favorite
scriptures from the 7th chapter of Revelations. I will paraphrase but you should read this chapter some
time.
"These are they who came out of a
great tribulation, who have washed their garments clean in the blood of the Lamb...and the Lamb of God is in the midst of them, and he shall wipe away all
tears from their eyes."
I am so grateful for my Savior and
I want to always keep him in the midst or middle of my life. Like the potter's clay it is about
keeping things central that need to be central. Merry Christmas! Thank you for everything you all do to reach out for me!
Mungu awabiriki
