Let it Snow, Let it Snow, Let it Snow

Our trio with the Finnish sister who is waiting
for her visa so she can serve in St. George, Utah
It is ok, no need to remember about me during the Christmas season! Haha well, items of business first I guess. So.... I will Skype at 6pm (that is 9am in Utah) on Christmas day :) And I will have 40 MINUTES so pre-plan questions if you want to know anything specific because I probably won’t know what to say haha. But I am excited to talk and see you all!! Woot woot!!

It was an AMAZING week! We had our 3 day meeting with the mission president and I learned sooo much. I cannot believe how much of a miracle it was, and at a perfect point on my mission. I am convinced that a big reason I was called to train this transfer was so that I could go to that training meeting. We had great conversations, watched the Christmas devotional AND we went to the temple. That was my first time attending the temple in 9 months!!! Wow, time flies.

Matching Onsies
Speaking of time, less than 7 months left! And yesterday was the shortest day of the year, which means it only gets better from here on out. We have been praying for snow but it has been fairly warm here and even the skies are clear. Really weird. But still, the Christmas season here in this beautiful country of Finland has been so wonderful and such a huge blessing.

It is such a unique opportunity to be a missionary during this time and I love spreading the Christmas cheer by spreading the gospel. We are trying to stay focused on the work, particularly this week, and we saw so many miracles yesterday because of it! It is exhausting to truly stay focused but the Lord blesses us and I have seen His hand in my life as I am enabled to do things that seemingly would be impossible. I heard the Christmas concert went well and the Utes won against BYU! Obviously. Still proud of my Utes :) well, that is all for now... Hope to see y’all soon!! Love you!!! :)
