It’s been a crazy week! I can’t
believe it’s almost December!
I hope everyone enjoyed their Thanksgiving.
I miss having Thanksgiving dinner. All that Ireland has is weekend Black Friday
sales and the whole city of Cork has been really busy this week.
I went to the Blarney Castle last
week. It was awesome! I got some really
good pictures! I was terrified because to kiss the stone you have hang upside
down while the guy holds your legs so you don't fall and die.
I went on exchanges with other
Elders three times last week. It’s really cool to travel around southern
Ireland a lot. On Tuesday, I went with Elder Hansen, one of the zone leaders.
He is such a great leader and helped me work on my goal of simplicity.
On Friday, I went to Tralee to go on
exchanges with Elder Beveridge. He is so awesome and he gave me his ukulele so
now I have 2!
On Saturday I went on exchanges with
Elder Christiansen who is from Canada. We taught a really awesome restoration
lesson to a French man named Fredrick! I
could understand some of his French, but didn’t get to speak any.
I am really enjoying the food here.
I learned how to make something called a Samoan. It is just Raman noodles and
scrambled eggs combined and put on a sandwich!
I might stay in Cork at the next
transfer, but wherever the President wants me to go, that’s where I’ll go. I
would love to stay in Cork!
Yesterday the Church launched the
2015 Christmas initiative with the new video. I invite you to take a look at christmas.mormon.org
and think of someone you could share this with. The Birth of Savior is center
of Christmas and is the ultimate gift because we have the chance to live with
our Heavenly Father again. The whole world should know of the Birth of
Christ and how great a gift that is. That has always been my favorite part of
Christmas and I want others to know of the Joy I feel from it!
I love and miss you all and hope
everyone is doing well. Thanks for all the prayers and mail. I love rereading
letters that I get in the mail because they make me happy. Have a great week!
