Hey y'all! What the hay!? It's December already!! Wow! It sounds like everyone had a great Thanksgiving! I did too :) We went to the Tiemann's home- he is the 1st counselor in the branch presidency. His wife made some delicious food and it was great! Afterwards, our zone got together and tried to work off our Thanksgiving meal by playing pigskin! So that was fun- until I jammed my pinky as I caught the football and now my hand is all bruised haha!
This week the work was pretty slow since the whole campus was DEAD! I mean... DEAD. Not a soul to be found! Oh, the joy of serving in a YSA area during holidays! Oh well :) We have been working a lot this week with a recent convert who has decided that he can no longer be a member of the church since his family is disowning him and sending him anti-mormon literature... so sad! We've been really trying to help him feel the spirit this week so that he won't turn his back on God. Honestly, that's all that really happened this week! We haven't been able to meet with T since she has been out of town all week, so we are probably going to have to push her baptismal date back.
We are working hard to find more people to teach and I'm super excited about the He Is The Gift initiative that the church has put out! Have y'all watched the video yet? If not, watch it now! christmas.mormon.org -It's only like 2 minutes long and it is so good! The spirit is so strong as it testifies of Christ's birth- the real reason we celebrate Christmas. I love y'all and hope you have a great week :)
Love,
Sister Evans
Oh- I made a pumpkin pie :) My wife skills are a work in progress! Good thing I'm on a mission for a while longer!!
soooooo...... we played "pigskin" on Thanksgiving. One of the Elders threw the football to me and I jammed my pinky... haha! Now my whole hand is a big ol' black bruise
Monday was AWESOME! My grandparents have been serving a mission at the Washington DC Temple for the last year. On their way home they stopped to see me! I am grateful for a mission president who allowed us a quick visit!
