It's Bent (Dec 4th 2017)

It's officially Christmas time folks!! I am so excited for the Holidays! I do have to say though, it is pretty weird not jamming out to Michael Buble's Christmas album all day every day but there's always next year!!!! This week, with the beginning of December and the #LightTheWorld that the church is doing, we had a great week of doing some street displays in town and sharing the good word! People actually hate us but it's fine. No one ever wants to stop and listen. A woman the other day actually yelled at me because she doesn't believe in the religious part of Christmas (literally the whole reason we even celebrate) and just likes it so she can get expensive gifts. Then her like 10-year-old son jumped in and started going at me too. Gotta love people though ❤

On Thursday we had a great opportunity to have a multi-zone conference in Crewe with Elder De Feo of the seventy. It was incredible and I learned so much!! One of my favorite things that he talked about was that we are all given challenges. And sometimes those challenges are really hard! But they are always for our benefit and even the benefit of those around us. Through our hardships, we can all increase our testimonies of the Saviour Jesus Christ and His Atonement. He said it a lot better than I just did but I just want you all to know that I know that Christ lives and that He can and will help us and save us from all things! 

Moroni 10:32 " 32 Yea, come unto Christ, and be perfected in him, and deny yourselves of all ungodliness; and if ye shall deny yourselves of all ungodliness, and love God with all your might, mind and strength, then is his grace sufficient for you, that by his grace ye may be perfect in Christ; and if by the grace of God ye are perfect in Christ, ye can in nowise deny the power of God.

33 And again, if ye by the grace of God are perfect in Christ, and deny not his power, then are ye sanctified in Christ by the grace of God, through the shedding of the blood of Christ, which is in the covenant of the Father unto the remission of your sins, that ye become holy, without spot"

WITHOUT SPOT! All of it.... completely gone! That is a pretty incredible promise!

So I've been so awful at taking pictures this transfer and I'm sorry! I want to try better this week so I actually have some things to send home. But I love you all so much! If you want to, mail me your Christmas cards!! I'll add my address to send them to at the bottom but that would honestly make my Christmas this year! Have a great week!!
