Happy Peaceful Christmas Spirit

Hey all!

Despite the wind chill, this has been the best week of my mission yet!

This week we got to go on exchanges with the Rosamond elders. I was with a new missionary who was going on his very first exchange! It does my heart good to be around elders with that "greenie fire." Gee wilikers, I sound like an old man.

We also finally got to have another appointment with Nicole! Apparently her mom was baptized when she was really young, and just hasn't been active in a long, long time. Something about the gospel runs in families, I guess. We also got to eat dinner with a part-member family who are super excited about celebrating Christmas with #LightTheWorld. See, it's not even December yet and it's already helping missionary efforts!

So that super exciting referral we got a couple weeks ago turned out to be a member already. Darn! But she'll still be taking care of her younger siblings in the future, and I don't think they're members, so that'll be someone the missionaries can work with.

Sunday was the best day ever, it was awesome. Nicole came to church and brought a friend along (who doesn't live in our area, but hey still cool), a new member moved in who brought her brother who isn't a member but is interested in learning, and we had a couple of less-active members who we visited this week show up to church! Really good Sunday. It feels good to have things go so well. We didn't expect so much, God really rained down some awesome blessings.

Also got to go on a tour of Edwards AFB this morning. Super bomb. I'd send pictures, but can't right now. Maybe later!

Normally I share something spiritual, but I've got nothing coming to mind right now! Well, I just hope ya'll get to feel the Spirit super strong this week. Not in a "oh boy gonna cry" kind of way, but in the happy peaceful Christmas spirit kind of way.

Thank you for all your support!

They told us to "not look like we're proselyting" and that's why the hawaiian shirt. Not proselyting in that.
