This week we have been super busy with well a lot. Tuesday we went to Barrie to stay the night so we could go to Brampton for a zone conference with President Clayton. We were asked to study a story about a "Sister Fultcher" it was really good and had lots of gems of knowledge in it to use in our area. Things like - loving the members to help them go forward in their own efforts for missionary work. We also got to see MEET THE MORMONS!! It was so good! Oh man everyone needs this movie, when it comes out of theaters it will be on netflix and youtube so it will be big. We talked about what the presidency of the church call the "he is the gift initiative" we are focusing this month on the true meaning of christmas and sharing it with others their are new pass along cards that have come for us (members will get 9 in their ensign) it has the christmas.mormon.org website (watch the video and share it with everyone! links are at bottom of page.) So yeah been working a ton with members and trying to help them out and before we even left Brampton we had a less active call us and gave us a referral who he will be fellow shipping every step of the way MIRACLES! gotta love them.
Last night we got our Christmas tree from bishop and I got sooo excited and decorated the thing that night! My companion thought I was Christmas crazy ( like mother like son ;) ) my star changes colors with LED lights :D
Thats right the tree decorating is all me but the garland that was Elder Bowman! He did a great job. I did the ornament trick you do with putting different numbers of them on one hook and it worked out and looks good. Bishops family went and got us ornaments from the dollar store so we are set plus there are candy canes so even better!
My companion lost a dear friend this week I'm am trying my best to support him. Elder Bowman took it hard and cried for a bit but he is doing better today. We shall do some service and get him feeling better in a jiff. I'll just love him the best I can and the Lord will bless his heart to feel comfort. I know it. Please pray for my comp.
Going to go look for some gifts today hopefully and see if we can't get them to you soon. I do have to help someone move today so we shall see how much time I have today to achieve that.
Enjoy the Christmas Spirit!
Elder Muirhead!!
