Yes,Sister Tracy survived another week in El Paso, Texas.
Actually El Paso, isn't too bad. The weather is great! This week the high was 70 and the low was 50. I didn't even have to wear a jacket most of the week! It's crazy! It doesn't even feel like Christmas!
Tuesday December 10
Another day serving at the food bank! It's always super fun to go do something a little different each week!
Thursday December 12
We had two solid lessons! One of our lessons was a first lesson, it was so powerful! We taught The Restoration of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Our investigator already knew that the Book of Mormon was true. We invited him to baptism and he accepted! It was so awesome! Now we have five people on date! Now we just need to help them all make their baptismal date!
At our dinner appointment, all the power went out after the food was prepared. We ate dinner by an oil lamp! It was kind fun, but also a little scary because we were out in the middle of nowhere.
Friday December 13
The Ward Christmas Party!
I love events and get-to-gethers! They definitely make life more fun! At the Ward Christmas party, a super awesome ward member made me some corn casserole. It was so good. I think that was the only thing I ate that night!
Sunday December 15
We had two investigators come to church! We had dinner with one of our investigators. We had tamales and a soup that I can't remember the name of. But in the Mexican culture they eat it for the holidays!
This past week I finished reading the Book of Mormon! Woohoo!
Scripture of the week!
2 Nephi 25:26
And we talk of Christ, we rejoice in Christ, we preach of Christ, we prophesy of Christ, and we write according to our prophecies, that our children may know to what source they may look for a remission of their sins.
This time of year is a great time to bring Christ back into our lives! Christmas is truly about Christ. He is the gift that doesn't stop giving. He gives us hope, peace, happiness, and joy. He can help us become whole again. I challenge you all to do as the scripture says, talk about Christ, rejoice in Christ, preach of Christ! Give yourself the best Christmas gift ever and let Christ in, or back into your life. He will accept you with open arms! He loves you and knows you personally.
I hope you all have a great week!
Continue to Light the World!
Love,
Sister Susanna Tracy
