I hope you had a Merry Christmas, I know I sure did. I was able to Skype with my family and it was great to see them! I'm so grateful for the love, support, and laughter my family supplies me with. How was your Christmas? Our apartment is currently full of candy, cookies, and chocolate thanks to our loving ward members. We also were able to meet with a few investigators on Christmas, so overall it was an awesome day!
And now for the miracle of the week! We were on exchanges and made plans to contact some less-active members. We made it to the apartment building and knocked on the members door...and no answer. We left a note and then turned around to go back to the car. As we reached the end of the hallway we saw a door all decorated for Christmas with a ton of shoes outside the door. I felt we should knock the door. We did and Keisha answered the door. We watched the "He is the Gift" video with her and she loved it. She has such a sweet spirit and we are meeting with her this week!
For many
of us, Christmas is our favorite time of year and it tends to come and go
much too quickly. However, we can have the feeling of Christmas with us
all year if we heed the words of our prophet Thomas S. Monson, "To catch
the real meaning of the spirit of Christmas, we need only drop the last
syllable, and it becomes the spirit of Christ." The spirit of Christ is
available to us year round 24/7. With the new year coming it is a great
time to set goals for ourselves. One of mine is to continually do the
things that bring the spirit of Christ into my life. I love you all so
much! Have a Happy New Year!
Love,
Sister WilliamsIt's Christmas!
