#lightyourfamily


Hey! I hope you all had a fantastic week! Ours was spectacular. It was super busy, full of lessons. It's been so fun to share the videos of light the world with people. There was so much that happened this week and it feels like it lasted forever! But at the same time it went by super fast. It's crazy. 

The main people we are teaching is a guy named Manuel, a lady named Angelina, and a lady named Urleane. They are progressing kinda slowly but hey, progressing is progressing. 

We had the ward Christmas party on Saturday and to be completely honest it was kinda terrible lol. They had amazing food (tri-tip) but the program.... lol. Kinda funny stoey though, the bishop decided to read a children's Christmas book to the primary but said we could listen if we want, so almost all the parents were chatting and such and we were talking really quietly about zone stuff and at the end.... this lady got SO mad at us for not paying attention, whoops. Thing was, the story was for the kids, everyone else was talking (a lot louder)... and we didn't even know who she was!? Like okay.

Things are going really well though! I'm loving this area so far. We went on exchanges with the assistants to President most of Saturday and that went really well. For some reason something clicked as I was working with Elder Nelson, like I am so excited for finding now and my outlook on it completely changed. It's great! 

A scripture Elder Nelson shared with me was alma 10: 4-5, over just the past couple of days this scripture has become so important to me. I feel the same way. I've been able to learn so much about the gospel and "the mysteries of the Lord." It's amazing at how much can change when you turn yourself just a little bit more to the Lord. 

I love this Christmas season and the spirit of it. The theme of light the world is #lightyourfamily. Find small and simple things that you can do to brighten your family. I love you all so much! Merry merry Christmas! And family.... I can't wait to see you next week 

Love Elder Larson
