I love Christmas time! It's the most wonderful time of the year. For real though. Isn't it just the best? So joyful. Speaking of joy, we had an awesome meeting with just the sisters in the Roanoke Zone and one thing we talked about was having joy. This lady from the Vinton Ward came and talked about her "Joy Philosophy." It was really great. Happiness is a choice! One thing she encouraged us to do is to write 5 things in our journal at the end of the day that brought us joy. The more you look for and notice joyful moments, the happier you'll be! Makes sense, right? There is seriously so much to be happy for.
Next month Elder S. Gifford Nielsen will be coming to our mission and enlightening us with some great inspiration! Exclamation point! :D So that'll be pretty sweet. The whole mission will be meeting in Charleston, so it'll be nice to see my MTC buddies. I love them! I've seen a couple of them since I've been out, but not much.
We taught K-- on Saturday about the temple and family history, and soon she'll be on her way to the house of the Lord! So great! I think the youth of our ward are going in February, so that'll be good. Hopefull she can go sooner than that. There aren't any super close temples here. If you've got a temple near you, go! Take advantage of it! There are so many people who would love to go every week, but they just can't because it's too far away.
Well, I hope you all have a very merry Christmas! Christ is what Christmas is all about. Think about what He gave to the world. Think about what He gave YOU. What will you give to Christ this year? We are so blessed to have a knowledge of our Savior. He lives. He suffered and died for us that we might live. He is the Redeemer of the world! Let's share these good tidings of great joy with all people.
Love,
Sister Myers
