Hello Everyone,
Well, after typing up my entire email... I accidentally deleted the entire thing... so here is round two. I hope you are all excited for another round of the Christmas Celebration!

We had the central conference zones for Christmas today and it was a good time being with the missionaries again! Just had a lot of fun and it was totally worth the time!

Elder Wright and I had the chance to be in a duo today as Elder Cloward was on a roaming exchange today and we ended up getting called out to do service in the middle of the day to help clear out a members home. Needless to say, the windows were open and stuff was flying.(apparently not illegal in England. ''Twas fun.

I had the chance to go on a roaming exchange to Maidstone and it was so much fun! We wrapped some copies of the Book of Mormon and then headed out to the high street to contact and share the Christmas initiative with people on full blast through my Bluetooth speakers.

We had an awesome Christmas service today! We also hit the mission vision in one day! That was insane! We had the chance to knock on a families door to and they were super sweet! They thought we were carolers and then we surprised them by saying no.. shared short message with them and then they invited us back! Then we sang them a carol to end the approach with peace! Super awesome!

We had an awesome temple trip today and it was by far the most influential and impactful day of my mission! I took some questions to the temple and then answers came in multiple ways! I felt the Spirit so strongly and I can testify that fasting brings added spiritual sensitivity and answers will come to your deepest questions! By far... the most influential day ever and I'm excited to have the next 5 months to reflect on the events of this day!

| Christmas Wrapping! ( I can actually wrap gifts now... mom, you'd be proud1) |
Today we headed up to London to spend some time with the missionaries up here and then also play some sport.
Love you all and I'm super excited to see some of you soon on skype!!!
Verse of the Week:
2 Nephi 9:33
"Behold, my beloved brethren, remember the words of your God; pray unto him continually by day, and give thanks unto his holy name by night. Let your hearts rejoice."
Love,
