Merry Christmas everyone!
First of all, if you want me to send a Christmas card to you I need you to send me your mailing address, and if you don’t do it soon (within the next few hours), I will still send it out but it might not be until next week… x)
We had a wonderful week, although I and our Sister missionaries ended up with colds for a bit. We still had lots of success, met and taught amazing people with crazy mental instabilities, and had fun in the process. Elder Laaksonen and I also pushed about a billion people’s cars out of the snow.
What a beautiful opportunity we all have to ponder on our Savior’s life and mission this Christmas season. I bear witness that Jesus Christ truly is who he claimed to be, and is the Son of the God, the Savior and Redeemer of the world. I believe in this with every fiber of my being, and through the Spirit and many miracles I have seen and I continue to search more understanding of these truths, God has confirmed it to me again and again. My biggest witnesses are the Bible and the Book of Mormon, which go hand in hand to testify that Jesus is the Christ. His example of helping, serving, and loving others is one which if we all follow, we will find ourselves in complete joy and peace in this life, and in the life to come, and I therefore exhort you to do just that! Follow him (2 Nephi 31: 10)! Be examples of the believers!
Once again Merry Christmas, and I hope you all enjoy this lovely picture of my companion and I which the bishop here took of us when I was completely and utterly unprepared while calling an investigator.
Love,
Elder Breinholt 🙂
