Last Monday we had a Christmas activity with our whole mission and watched the movie, "the fighting preacher"! It was so cute, a little cheesy of course, but the story was beautiful! Then me and my companion worked the giving machines at the mall in Orem! It was a blast! A little draining, but a ton of fun. I feel so blessed to be apart of a church that gives so much to so many people in need!
I got sick again this week (it was not fun at all)! But the good news is, I am feeling better!
We had more ward parties and lessons this week and it was awesome! Lots of people were gone though because Christmas is approaching! I cant believe it is only 2 days away!!! Merry Christmas Eve Eve!!
Overall, it was a good week and I just got to thinking about how grateful I am to be spending this Christmas season focusing on Christ and sharing the message of His birth with people. So often, the true meaning of Christmas is drowned in presents, Santa, decorations, etc. But we have to remember Christ. He performed miracles and did the unimaginable for us. He suffered for us. He died for us. He did this for me. And for you! For all of us. As hard as it is to be away from family, there is no place I would rather be than here serving the Lord. I love the gospel of Jesus Christ. I love my Savior. He has changed my life. And I am so grateful for a Heavenly Father who loves me enough to give me His Son.
Merry Christmas everyone!!!! I hope your holiday season is wonderful and full of many blessings. Thank you all for being a part of my life! I am so blessed!
Emails and pictures appreciated:)
Love,
Sister Brady
