How ironic is it that I will be out 3 months exactly on Christmas day? What a great way to celebrate that, with Christmas and being able to Skype my family! :) So I'll let you know my plans for Christmas because its going to be pretty fun!
So In the morning my whole district is going to come to where we are staying (in a members home) and we are going to have a huge breakfast, watch a movie, and just hangout. After around noon, I believe we are going to go to the church and play basketball or something like that. Then around 3 or 4 my companion and I are going to the Campanellas' (really cool members in our ward), and there we are going to eat dinner, watch a movie and Skype with my parents! :) Pretty much going to be the best Christmas ever haha! Not only that, my parents got me a brand new suit, which I am so excited to show all of you after I get it altered. I hope all of you have an amazing Christmas too!
So this week was very filled with things to do. Tuesday, my companion and I went tracting for 2 hours, and from that we gained 5 potential investigators, 3 returning appointments and handed out like 10 copies of the Book of Mormon. It was a pretty productive day.
On Wednesday, we had a Christmas Conference, where 3 other zones attended. That was a crazy fun day, because I got to see a couple of my MTC friends again. :) I get to see them next week too, at transfer meeting, which I am super excited for because I will get to see my MTC Companion as well as everybody else!
Anyways, this past whole week, we delivered a plate of desserts to a bunch of less actives, which was awesome because we were able to visit with a lot of less actives. Hopefully we can get them to come back to church soon. :)
So, Saturday was our ward Christmas breakfast, which we weren't able to be very much a part of because it started at 9:30, and we had a conference call at 10 with all the new missionaries and their trainers, which was alright I guess. I would have rather been eating food and socializing, but thats okay because we went to our zone leader's ward for their Christmas dinner. Oh, I forgot, and before we did that our whole zone went to a nearby retirement home and sang Christmas carols to all the elderly people, which was so much fun. They absolutely loved us! :) That was easily the highlight of the week.
Anyways, That is all I have to report for you all this week. I hope everybody has a very merry Christmas, and remembers what it is truly about. :) Love you all, and miss every single one of you!

"And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid. And the angel said unto them, fear not: for, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a saviour, which is Christ the Lord." -Mark 2:9-11
