MERRY CHRISTMAS ALL! This week has been pretty good for us! We had our ward christmas party on Saturday and it was pretty fun even though two of our investigators showed up.
We did heaps of service earlier this week. We got to do some gardening and some sanding/painting. The gardening has inspired me to do some weeding at our flat soon.
We had some good miracles this week. There was one day this week when Sister Lee and I were tracting an we met a girl named Tarra. We had a really good talk with her and towards the end I gave her a Restoration pamphlet. She looked at it and said "I've been waiting for someone to give me something like this" so then I gave her a Book of Mormon and she said the exact same thing! I really hope to see her again soon, but if not I still know that we were instruments in the Lord's hands in preparing her to come unto Christ.
Next miracle: This week we tracted one side of a street and the next day Sister Lee and I both felt like we should go back and tract the other side. When we did we met a Tongan mother, Anette, from New Zealand. Her family is Methodist but she has cousins who are members of our church. She invited us back to teach her more so we're pretty stoked. I'm most excited that it will be SO easy to find a fellowship for her since basically over half our ward is Polynesian!
One other cool thing from this week: Sister Lee and I taught an Indian lady who is from the Sikh religion. It was pretty sweet, but I had absolutely no idea how to go about the lesson since I basically know nothing about her religion haha!
Crazy that Christmas is already upon us, and the last week of my fourth transfer. I hope we will all remember to take some time this week to enjoy the lovely people we have around us and to reflect on the birth of our Saviour Jesus Christ. If you haven't watched the He is the Gift video on christmas.mormon.org DO IT! I love you all and wish you a happy, warm, merry christmas!
Love ya heaps!
Sister Bingham
