Hey everyone,
So we had transfers
this week and I will be leaving Houma to go to a area called Lafayette, which
means I will have served in every area my second companion served in plus 2,
haha I’ve heard it is a fun area so I’m super excited to go there even though I’m
sad to leave Elder Clifford and Houma.
The cool experience
from this week was when we went to the ward Christmas party. In this area there
are a lot of less active people that all the missionaries and members have been
working on for a long time to come to church.
At the Christmas party it came to
fruition. Almost all the less actives we have all been working on came to the
party, and were able to meet and mingle with the members again. It was also great cuz only one of the Spanish
less active families we work with wasn’t there.
Then even better, a lot of the people that came to the ward party, also
came to church for the first time in ages this last Sunday; so that was a great
time!
Another blessing from
this week is that we got to go to the temple! I really love the temple and I was
a little bit spoiled by it back home. In high school we were able to do temple Tuesday’s
and many times a month we were able to go and attend the temple. Since coming to Louisiana, seeing as there is
only one temple in the state, I’ve only been able to go twice. I feel
like because of that, my appreciation of the temple, and the special spirit it
brings, has grown. I love the temple and I love the fact that through the priesthood
and temple ordinances we can be sealed to our family live together for all
eternity.
Love all of you, I hope
you have an awesome Christmas!
