Hello everyone! I hope you all had a wonderful christmas! i know i did!.
after skyping with my awesome family, Us and the Assistants went out and hit the streets with a book of mormon in one hand and a hymn book in the other with the goal to teach or sing the wonderful message of Jesus Christ's birth to anyone who would listen. it was truly an amazing experience. and it was such a joy to spread the christmas spirit or even an President Monson calls it; "the christ spirit"
We were walking along the street and we saw a bakery that had 5 or 6 workers, but no customers, so we figured that they must be insanely bored at the moment, and we walked right in and sang to the amgels we have heard on high. they Loved it! i hope we were able to make their day, because working on christmas is really not fun to do.
The rest of last week was spent gearing up for the switch of my companon. I ahev a new companion named ELder Lee! he is amazing, and he was actully in the same district as me when he was a trainee. and we have always wanted to serve together, so the fact that we are able to is super awesome. im very excited for this next transfer.
it is a different experence having to be the one who has to answer ALL the questions. No that i do, but it is interesting having to at least come up with solutions to problems. Elder Kim, my last companion was wonderful at everything, and now i need to follow his example,
Another crazy thing that i can hardly believe is that 2016 is just around the corner. i remember when 2015 started, and now it is gone, the time flies.
i hope you all have wonderful days, and a great week!
