Christmas Time is Here (Mission Update)

Merry Christmas! We are so excited to Skype with the Sweetest Missionary Ever on Christmas Day. Here is last week's group email (she didn't send one out the week before) There is a prayer request:

Hey everybody! Hope you are having a great week! 

We have had a great week, with everything going on we have two with a baptism date for the 29th of december. We were going to invite Hermana Rosa to get baptized but she is going through hard times right now and so we had the Elders come give her a blessing. Please keep her in your prayers. Also Hermana Patty was invited to get baptized but she thought it was too soon and wants to learn more. So we will continue teaching her and inviting her to be baptized. 

Christmas is truly here. We bought a small fake tree and decorated it. 


We also have our Christmas stockings hung up. 

Also our stake had a Christmas activity. It was really fun and we helped with the Primary kids. 

Here I am with this cutie! She didn't want her picture taken at first.

Then there's this crazy boy!



Then after the activity we got pizza!

So this week my companion locked the keys in the house and so she climbed in through the window to get it open! She knocked over the tree but nothing else happened. 

So on Friday we had our district meeting and I gave the lesson. I think it turned out alright, at least I hope it did. 

Today we got together as Hermanas and made sugar cookies then decorated them as a zone. 
It was way fun! Sending you all some pics of that wonderful time! There was about 150 cookies made and eaten. 

I love you all! Hope you keep the Christmas Spirit alive and think of ways you can Light up the World this Christmas Season! 

Love, Hermana Madsen



Doesn't she look happy? She was able to Skype for a few minutes yesterday to try the connection out for Christmas Day. She looked great and was her normal bubbly self. Yay! Thank you for your prayers on her behalf and for the emails to her. It means so much to her to hear from you! Keep it going into the New Year. Her email is: marissa.madsen@myldsmail.net



From our family to yours,
Merry Christmas!
