Happy Holidays Everyone. Sorry so delayed in sending out the e-mail we received from Nick on Monday. We skyped with him on Christmas day and it was GREAT! He is doing so well and is SUPER happy. He wanted to make sure that we told each of you just how much he loves and appreciates you. Thanks for your love and support -- from Nick -- and from us! We love you....... Carolann
Oh boy oh boy. I can't believe it's finally Christmas!!
Man I am stoked to skype with you guys! It's going to be so sick! Only a few things that I need to mention! So president told us today that he got a letter from the 1st presidency that said we get 40 minutes to skype with our family, but he has given us an hour, but said that we could only skype with our family in one house, meaning that we can't skype in other people or anything. Ya the rule kinda stinks but what can you do? Rules are given just to make people mad! I mean they all have a reason and the one thing you guys always taught me was to just obey the rules and everything will be all right!
So today we had a big Christmas meeting with the whole mission which was was good! We went to the chapel that is now in the west mission cause it's a bit bigger and way nice! But the meeting was way sweet. A lot of people sang and played instruments and what not. The spirit was way strong and everyone was super pumped! And president is such a boss! Gosh I love the guy! So that was super fun and I got to see a lot of other missionaries there that I've been with! Got to see Elder Assis for the last time! He leaves next week to go home which stinks. He's so awesome!
As for the week, it was a bit frustrating and a little hard but still great! A couple of our baptisms fell through for frustrating reasons. Hopefully we will be able to talk to them throughout this week and hearts and circumstances will change. We also baptized that guy I told you about who made a contact with us in the street! He is such a boss. He has had a few problems in his life but he wanted to be baptized so bad it was sick! He was finally baptized this week so we were pretty stoked!
Super stoked to talk to everyone this week!! Oh man I love you all and hope that everyone has an awesome Christmas!
Feliz natal!
Elder Holmes
