Subject: MERRY CHRISTMAS MINASAN!

Wow, what a week! But first I want to say MERRY CHRISTMAS!!

Thanks for allt he love and prayers on my behalf. I feel it everyday! I am also SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO happy that I got to skype with my family today. All of us misisonaries are smiling really big today.

This week we had lots of opportunities to teach about the true meaning of Christmas and we had so much fun! We shared lots of scriptures and did lots of Christ-centered lessons this week. (Actually, we always teach about Christ, so... nothing really different). We stopped and talked to every single woman we saw! We also found a FAMILY that wants to hear our message. I`ll follow up on that next week!

I don`t have a lot to say, sorry! But I just want to talk about how happy I am. More importantly WHY I am happy. I have SO many blessings! I have an awesome family. I have friends that make me smile SO much! I feel so much love from home with my ward/stake/friends/family. Seriously, I love you guys. Thanks for chekcing up on me every once in a while! I also know that God is our loving Father in Heaven who has a plan for us. He gave us His Son so that we would be able to live with God again. I LOVE my Savior, Jesus Christ. As we think about Him, I hope we can all remember why we have a reason to feel peace. 

I love you all! Missionary work is going great here in Japan! I love it so much!

Merry Christmas. Peace and Blessings.
