Week #46 - Christmas Eve JOY

HELLO to all of my dearest loved ones!!! This past week has been full of miracles and joy that I hope I can explain it fairly well. 

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

So this week Elder Potter and I really focused on what we can do to be more and fully consecrated. We decided to start with our schedule. We made a schedule of out by 10 and tracting until 3. Then we come home and have dinner/companion study and then back out until 9! I have never worked as much and been so exhausted in my entire life. We were so incredibly blessed.

We would pick a neighborhood and talk to everyone and knock on every door. We met so many fun people and found 15 new people!!! It was a miracle to see Heavenly Father provide for us. There are like two neighborhoods that we have been working. They are definitely low class but we love it. We've made so many friends and yesterday when we went by to see some people all the neighbors we had met invited us in and we built relationships with several families. I just love being a missionary. 

We also started teaching some new referrals that we had given to us! One of them is named John. We taught him about the apostasy and what the Holy Ghost felt like. We then opened up the Book of Mormon and he read the very first verse. He looked up at us after and goes "Guys, I feel it. It's warm and I can't explain it."  HOLY MIRACLE.  He is now reading and thriving.  We are so excited. 

I'm so extremely excited for Christmas tomorrow. I love the season that is filled with the spirit. I'm so thankful for the Savior and cannot fully explain how much gratitude I have for him. My mission has changed my entire relationship with Him and I can honestly say He is my best friend. I am so thankful and full of joy. I love the mission and everything about it. Have a merry Christmas and I love y'all. God bless.
