December 15, 2014- Christmas Devotional

This week was awesome! Started the week of with P-day ( Still one of my favorite days... sorry bout it) then we had our Christmas Mission Devotional. The simplified it a lot this year, last year it lasted all day and watched a movie and stuff. This year there were 3 zones at our and each Zone did some musical numbers and a Christmas reading. Then we watched a slide show of pics from the year, then ate cinnamon rolls and hot chocolate then went home and that was it. I thought it was gonna be boring but I liked this years better it was all focused on Christ and the true meaning of Christmas.

  Chad is still doing well! We had a lesson with him last night, he started to get nervous about his date and wanted to move it back. But he is keeping it he remembered that's the last Saturday before transfers and wants both of us there. He is awesome and has a lot of faith!

  We had a Ward Christmas party this week. And a family is coming back to church because of it and a Guy thats friends with Brother Crowther in the Bishopric is wanting to be taught by the missionaries again and says hes ready to go through with it this time. Hes been taught twice in the past and committed to baptism but never went through with it, so thats exciting.

  The ward members are convinced that im just finishing out my mission here. I wouldnt mind that it would get old after awhile, but Found out today our mission is getting split again!! The north half with become the yakima mission. So I needa stay in the southern part so I stay with President Ware my whole mission. Its gonna split the beggining of July so Ill only have a month after but Ill wanna stay with President Ware.

   Thank you all for Christmas packages and letters! There will be Christmas cards sent your way just gotta catch up on all of em.

Love,

Elder Bubba Nelson
