We are supposed to stay inside all day but we may run to the Church so we can be with some of the missionaries! I always cover myself to keep warm! The only part of my body you can usually see is my eyes. We will be safe - don't worry. But I will send a better email in a little while! Love you!
Okay so we are at the church now! We made it just fine! I wore two hats, a scarf, my big coat, a sweatshirt, sweats, long johns, 2 pairs of socks and my long gs. -40 below isn't as cold as you would think it is haha. We played sports at the church for a long time today and are going back home to rest!
But I loved your pictures. That is so nice that Kev let you and dad sleep in her bed, such a sweet dog. And I think that is one of the first times I have seen Dad in a suit in forever! But I would love to meet up with Jim if I can! But yep I made the Christmas cards! It took me like 10 minutes to do I just went to Walgreens and had them done on one of our p-days! I also have a funny Christmas card that I just haven't sent you guys yet, it is written and sealed and stamped I just need to send it.
Liz's baptism was amazing! It was funny though because our ward mission leader doesn't really help us that much and our bishop gave him the keys so we were waiting before the baptism at the church to fill up the font and he arrived late so we were stressing out that the font wouldn't be full and that we wouldn't have the jumpsuits because they are both locked. Finally he gets to the church and we are like thank goodness but we still need to hurry. He is sitting there for a second and then he is like I forgot the keys in my temple pants because all of the members go on Saturdays to the temple here. I am so stressed so the other missionaries helped us take off the locks for the font so we basically broke into it and luckily he had another key for the jumpsuits. After that though the baptism went great! Her husband did baptize her and it was amazing! Oscar's dad confirmed her on Sunday and we were talking to her after and she was like today is the happiest I have ever been! She said she was overwhelmed by the spirit and that she could feel it enter her when she was confirmed. We reminded her that that feeling is hers forever now! It was absolutely amazing and it was nice for our other investigators to see! President and Sister Woodbury came too.
And then yesterday I was fasting for help to find new investigators and then one of our part member families walked in! The husband (the investigator) had been out of town for all of December and he finally came to church! It was an answer to my prayer and he looked up all the scriptures during the classes and his son got ordained the priesthood! It was a miracle!
Everything this week has been so great! Love you guys all! I will send some pictures in a few minute too when I am back on my iPad.
