Hello everyone! Today I felt a huge rush of the Christmas spirit! Have any of you felt that yet?! Merry Christmas y'all!
As missionary companions we often make jokes with each other that we are one or unified in ways outside of missionary work. Like we both might say the same thing or think the same thing. Almost like twin telepathy haha (have no idea how to spell that) anyway Elder Peterson and I experienced unity in a different way this week! Last week, he got sick. Well this week I got sick haha. Well it wasn't very funny at the time. It was actually pretty frustrating. We had to stay in our apartment for two days while I rested which I did, sleeping for 7 hours one day. Elder Peterson was a trooper and we got through it. Luckily it was only two days! God is good and I am now feeling much better!
Even though I was out for two days we managed to find two new people this week! Jeremy and Kris! Jeremy was washing his car and we started talking to him! We read a verse in the Book of Mormon and gave it to him. We are going to try to see him tomorrow! Kris is a friend who we have seen before at the food pantry we work at. We got talking to him and he came to our ward Christmas party on Saturday! (Thanks to some awesome members who drove him) We are going to meet with him and these members tomorrow!
There was some large and destructive tornadoes that came through some states near me (even in Arkansas I think) It is a humbling thought that it could have come here to Alma. I am so grateful for the knowledge that I have of the plan of salvation that those who have lost their lives due to the tornado can still learn and progress and come closer to Christ. It is not over for them or their families. Please pray for those affected by this natural disaster! God is aware of the destruction. He loves all His children!
Love you all! Stay safe.
Elder Spencer
