I am in a Christmas Coma! I think I gained like 10 pounds yesterday on
food and candy!!
Well Christmas was awesome! I had a good time. So we went to church in
the morning and then we went to a family named the Fultz for some
lunch and to be able to Skype my family!! And then we went to the
Licon's and we had dinner and played games with their family. It was a
great Christmas and was great to be able to be on my mission for it.
So highlights of this week was we got a referral for an Egyptian
family. So we went over there to drop off a Bible like they requested
but when the dad answered the door he had no idea what we were talking
about! But when we asked if we could share a message about Jesus
Christ he opened the door and said come on in! Me and Elder Furniss
froze and we looked at each other and we both were trying to frighten
out if this was actually happening!! Both of us had never been let in
a house like that before. So he brought his family in the room and we
shared a Christmas message and the Book of Mormon and they were pretty
interested. So that was for sure a highlight of this week!
Next we had no appointments planned and so we were trying some
less-actives and we were walking down the street and I went to
demonstrate a squat and right as I did it I heard a loud rip!! I just
stopped and my face turned bright red and Elder Furniss just started
dying laughing! And so I stood up and looked and my pants weren't just
ripped a little bit it was a huge rip!! First time I ever ripped my
pants!
Well the last highlight was on Tuesday. We had another exchange with
the Lebanon Elders! So I went to Lebanon and got to walk around again!
Looks like I will never get fully away from a walk area. But I was
Elder Nelson and it was a fun time we taught one of their
investigators Modesto he is from Puerto Rico and he is hilarious! He
loves the gospel but his health is keeping him from attending church
but he was amazing to be able to teach!
Well I hope all of you had an amazing Christmas!! I love and miss you all!!
Elder Swisher
