Merry Christmas Everyone!!

Merry Christmas everyone!!! I hope everyone was able to have an amazing Christmas this year full of joy. I hope everyone was able to remember the real reason why we celebrate Christmas, the birth and life of Jesus Christ. Out here on the mission I have been able to see that. Remembering Jesus Christ, by remembering His Atonement and using it in our lives, is the best way to remember Jesus Christ, because if there is anything He wants us to do more than anything else, it is to use His Atonement.

This week has been really hectic. Being so far out here so far away from town we have been traveling a lot. We probably spent more time on buses this week than proselyting unfortunately. We had an awesome Christmas though. Christmas day we traveled to Georgetown to Elder and Sister Fry's apartment to Skype home and we had lunch with them and played some games, it was a lot of fun. Then we got back to Parika and went over to a members house and they fed us some chicken chow mien and curry and roti, which was delicious. And then yesterday we went back to Georgetown to have a Christmas activity with our 2 zones here in Guyana. We met at one of the chapels and had pizza and ice cream and watched "It's a wonderful life" so yesterday was a lot of fun.

This coming Saturday we should be having transfer calls so next week I will probably know where I will be next transfer. The transfer ends next Sunday

I don't have much time this week, but​​ I hope everyone is enjoying the holidays with their families and friends. Have a good week!
