Hey! How was everyone's week! I'm sure none of you had as many
meetings as us! Haha so yes transfers happened and my new address is 3840
Martina Ave Unit 103 Santa Rosa, CA 95407. So you can send both packages and
letters to that address. My new companions are 1 (the other zone leader) Elder
Jones. He's from Price Utah, loves hunting and sports. It's funny because he
still doesn't like any vegetables and he doesn't like any fruits but like...
raspberries. Then the new missionary Elder Pickett is from South Weber Utah,
and he loves theater. Things are going good though, we are both settled in now.

As far as the work goes.... we didn't really do too much
proselyting with all the meetings we had. We had a meeting Tuesday night with
the sister training leaders, we had an all day training meeting Wednesday, and
another meeting for that Thursday morning in addition to a ward correlation
meeting with the ward mission leader, then an all day mission leadership
council (meeting) all Friday and a meeting with the sister training leaders
after that. Then we had a district council Saturday morning. Then sacrament
meeting with a meeting with the sister training leaders again Sunday night. So
it's been busy busy busy... but good. I love being busy.

2nd picture I like bc I look funny haha
We are actually teaching quite a few people though. We met with
a guy named Manuel on Thursday and he seems to be progressing okay. He's
reading the book of Mormon so we will see where that goes! Then a different guy
named Dennis on Saturday who is in the middle of Alma! So things are good here.
I'm excited to start working in this area with a whole bunch of missionaries I
haven't served around. A short little funny story though... we were out working
Saturday night and we passed a lady and said "Merry Christmas!" Then
she says "Happy Holidays.... Christmas is Satanic!" Lol so that was
something to laugh about... it makes for a good story.
Despite that.... I'm so excited for this Christmas season...
It's literally the best. And instead of 1 light the world video... now there are
4. It makes me so happy. If you haven't checked them out.... you can find them
on LDS.org or on gospel library. Definitely would recommend! #lighttheworld.
I'm so grateful for the season when we have to celebrate the birth of our
savior. It's such a wonderful time to spend giving and thinking of others and
family. Never forget to keep the Christ in Christmas. Have a fantastic week. I
love hearing from all of you. Merry Christmas!! (Which is not satanic)
Love Elder Larson
