Merry Christmas

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!                                                                               Dec. 23, 13

This upcoming week is going to be amazing! As a mission we're doing a read-a-thon on Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, New Years Eve, and New Years Day. Since proselyting wont be super effective or welcome on any of those days we're going to read the four gospels (Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John), the Doctrine and Covenants, and the Pearl of Great Price in those four days! I'm really excited about it. We'll be reading it together as a zone in Kitchener. We also have our quarterly interviews this week with President and Sister Scott. I'm super excited about that too!

We had some changes in our area this week. On Wednesday we got a call from the Zone Leaders and they told us that the Guelph North sisters would now cover all of Guelph and attend the family ward and Sister Dyer and I are now GUELPH YSA! :) Crazy huh? So we will be finding and teaching YSA in Guelph and attending the Kitchener YSA Branch! I've never been in a branch before, so it will be a great new experience. There are lots of YSA here in Guelph because it' a university town, the only problem is they are all home for the holidays. Hahaha. It's okay because we're still seeing miracles despite that. It's so interesting how the Lord knows everything. Both Sister Dyer and I started our missions in YSA areas (S. Dyer was in London) and now we're in Guelph opening a new YSA area! I've enjoyed the challenges and adventures that come along with opening an area.

We found two new investigators this week. Onneetse we found tracting and she is from Botswana. She is awesome! And Austin we found while walking around in a neighborhood. He was shoveling snow in his driveway so we just went up and started talking with him. We're having a second lesson with each of them tonight, so I'm pretty excited to start watching them progress.

The craziest part of this week was yesterday though. There was an ice storm!! Crazy. I always heard about ice storms happening back east. And here I was. Back east. In an ice storm. Church was cancelled so we stayed inside for some of the day and did productive missionary things and went tracting for another part of it. It was crazy though. Thick ice covered EVERYTHING! It was like a blanket of ice was just thrown over the world. It was absolutely beautiful!

I hope you all have a great week! Have a wonderful and very merry Christmas!

Love and Prayers, Sister Felix
