4 More Days yo!!

MERRY CHRISTMAS YA'LL!!

Hey! So it's that wonderful week of the year where everyone is filled with joy!! Hooray for the missionary work!! Haha! (Wouldn't that be so great if we just taught the heck outta people, especially during our "busiest" week ever)!!

Last week was a pretty good one! Filled with normal p-days and planning days, and days where we made all our goals happen...then exchange days where Sister Winters found herself transplanted up in Leander with Sister Green for a day! That was pretty fun! It always is!

I just wanted to let ya'll know how happy I am to be here, in Tejas, for christmas and to be celebrating the birth of our Savior as one of His servants! What a BLESSING!! I've seen so many blessings this year, from my spiritual growth, to that of others! Most times it's been more of others growth than mine that has been noticed, but I'm almost positive that I'm growin'! And the fact that I've been learning new things that will help me in the life after my mish, will so benefit many others to come!

This gospel is so true! Just looking around me everyday and recognizing the blessings that are wrought by the things that it teaches are just astounding to me! People experience such a change in their lives when they fully grasp the concepts of having enough faith in Christ to change their lives for the better. Even learning to really trust in Him is a miracle I've been able to witness! I never realized how much courage it takes, to take that faith and really TRUST the Savior enough, to walk away from jobs, lifestyles, family, and friends. The people I teach are my heroes! They are amazing and I wish ya'll could see them too!

Well, I wish ya'll a most wonderful christmas and a Happy New Year!

Love,

Sister Erin Winters
