Merry (early) Christmas!



Well the weather outside is frightful and the warm heater is so delightful!!!

How blessed we are to have a prophet on the earth today. I am so thankful that we have been blessed with Thomas S. Monson who is our fearless leader into the battle! I was so thankful that we were able to listen and watch the broadcast at the church. The spirit was so strong and it confirmed to me that we do have a Savior who lives and loves us :)

What a week it has been. It’s the holiday season and the Lord just blessed us immensely. The work has been going amazing all week long. We have had new investigators come out of the wood work or I guess in Georgia the forest that surrounds us and have committed to be baptized! Brandy is doing amazing. She has been so prepared by the Lord I can’t believe how much the Lord blessed us with trusting us to teach her. She came to the Christmas party Saturday church and the broadcast on Sunday and we continue to teach her every Wed. Another good note is Marshawn is doing really well. I fear that it may be a struggle with him. I have fears that he is doing it for his gf but we shall see. I feel that he has good desires and that he has good intentions but I feel there is a slight other reason behind him. And Brielle we finally set a date and times so that we can work to get her baptized. We are still working on James (her grandfather) to get him worthy to baptize her. It’s always something that I love doing is to help serve and love them just as the Savior.

We had 13 investigators come to church yesterday! That’s like an all-time record on my mission. We have never done that before. We have always gotten 4 or 5. So it was a miracle the Lord provided us with...

Jesus us the reason for the season. Let us never forget how important and how loved we are from our Heavenly Father who gave us the one and true Messiah who was born in Bethlehem over 2000 years ago. May we always remember Him and as we get out there to serve our brothers and sister may we be selfless and help other who are in need. May we love as the Savior and serve as He would!

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Love,
E MAC
