Hey!
So this week was stellar, we taught quite a few more lessons than usual, and it paid off! First of all we had transfers last week, and the switches worked out super well, areas are starting to blow up. We are still low on baptisms, but we should be going hot into January.
At church we had a record-breaking 176 people come to sacrament meeting. It was even raining a little bit in the morning! But pretty much all the people that are off and on coming to church came at one time, probably for the Christmas party. But Elder Paulis and I also
had 5 investigators come so that was exciting. Two were actually in the Christmas program they did, haha.
It was standard the rest of the week, I did make it out to Udot again to do a baptismal interview for another one of my old investigators. It was Reileen, the sister in law of Keileen who was baptized last week. So that was exciting.
I am excited for Christmas here! We have our branch Christmas party on Christmas I believe so it should be fun. I love you all! Thanks for all the love!

We had a wonderful visit with Elder Schroath on Christmas evening! The internet was being touchy so we just spoke with him on the phone. He is growing and changing and becoming more like his Savior every day. I asked him how his sandals and church shoes were holding up and he said that he gave his sandals to another missionary from Samoa who needed them.
Here is a picture of us talking with Elder S. I had my son Garrett (who is in Dallas) on speakerphone on my daughters cell phone and held it up to mine so he could hear as well.
