Here we come to talk again. This
was a wonderful week. Had a great zone conference in PE. Talked about
the Book of Mormon. It was awesome. As part of it we watched a cool
documentary on the first bit of the Book of Mormon. It was cool. It
follow Nephi's family. So much more realistic than the Book of Mormon
movie we saw long ago. Very nice video. Also watched a movie called
Freetown. Great movie. True story. I want to find it and watch it with
you soon. But the training was very nice to. We broke down and connected
the bible and Book of Mormon more that we might be able to show how
they testify of each other and especially of Christ.
The rest of the week was nice. Some good appointments and chances to talk of the true Spirit of Christmas.
Had a great Christmas party. Lots of fun. Lots of food.
And
church was more full than it has been. There were about 30 from George,
which is less than normal. But then we had like 20 others who were
visiting. Half of them were senior couples from the area office. It was
cool.
Lets begin.
Dad,
i am happy to hear that Tatum is still kicking. It was a great week
teaching and learning.
Missionary minded is a good state of mind. I guess that
might be the state of mind we want to be in when it comes to the spirit
world. In paradise. And we must have to cultivate it in this life. To
be missionary minded is good.
Thanks for setting up all your kids. We'll trust you on this one.
I have a talk next week too. Topic is President Monson's "be an example and a light" i am excited.
I
like Isaiah 61:1 that defines very nicely Christ's role for us. He was
born for those reasons. To preach good tidings. To bind the
brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty, and to open prison's doors. We
couldn't do this life with out Him.
Yep PE was nice. No
interview though. In a couple weeks. I love Mission Presidents.
President Merrill is the best. A very special calling.
Thanks for the funnies. I love you Dad!!
Mom, i love this season too.
There
are no problems with the same email. Dad has been doing it for some
time, and we love him still. :) i am just so happy to hear from you.
Some missionaries lose contact with people about this time. Thanks for
your diligent love. I am happy and grateful to hear from you.
And with Heidi, Jr. High has come too fast. I
was thinking back. It seems like yesterday i was in Mr. Davis's class. That
was when i lost your palm pilot. That doesn't feel too long ago does
it?
Good trip to PE. I only drove back home. The other Elder in Knysna drove down. Felt good to sit in the back.
70
is good. That provides so much. Right now the exchange is 15 to 1. For
now i think i might just hang tight until after Christmas, when the
prices won't be so sky high. Thanks.
But hey, Mom i love you so very much!!!! Can't wait to speak to you too.
Bryant, love you too!!! Happy Christmas!
Meagan, way to go with finals. That is cool the Sub4Santa. We only did food drives and stuff. The normal things.
Christmas parties are fun. Our this last week was great. We even got some of the left overs. I love being a missionary. :)
I love you Meagan!!!
Heidi, moving isn't fun. Especially at classrooms. Sorry bud.
Hey i can't wait to see you either. Christmas is now now. Love you little sis!!!
Jera,
thanks for the pictures. Ice skating is fun. Those ones are too cute.
And nice bread as well. Tasty Christmas treats. Yumm!! We got fruit cake
and liver pâté thing last week. Christmas is great. Can't wait. Love

much that i want to eat some lunch. :) hope you all have a Happy
Christmas. I can't wait to see your little faces. It brings me such
great joy.

Love, Elder Pennington the Elder
