So this email is going to be a pretty short one, because I talked to most of yall about 3 days ago!! But it was a pretty good week. Basically this week we tried to go and see a bunch of people but not a lot of people were home. Everyone was out and about for the holidays, so it was hard to see everyone.
Christmas Eve we got with our district and had a little dinner thing and we had a fun time, then on Christmas we had a district breakfast and went out and tried to see the some people. And then we went and skyped and it was so good to see everyone again. Its crazy how fast time flys that i only have 6 months left!! haha i promise im not trunky though.
But other then that nothing to crazy happened, but yesterday we had a cool tender mercy. So we went to church and we were a little down because we didn't have anyone come to church this week, and we had a bunch of people promise that they would come. So we were sitting in priesthood and this random guy walks in. We didn't want to disturb the class so we waited until it was done and we started to talk to him. But he was a man from Cuba and he wanted to go to church with one of his friends that moved into our area. He said he was sorry that he came late and he wanted to keep coming to our church. He said that he saw how bad the world has been getting and he wants to help people become better and he has heard of us before and really likes what we do. He said he would love to join and learn what we believe.
It was such a tender mercy because we have had almost everyone we are teaching drop us and everyone we invited to church not come. But the lord blessed us for our efforts and is leading and guiding us to the poeple that have been prepared. I hope yall had a great Christmas, and remember the true mean of it. I also hope yall have a happy New Year as well!! Love yall
Elder Peterson
