Well, it must be December because the days are flying by.  Can't believe that Christmas is this week. It is kind of strange not really worrying about buying gifts and making things - instead we are worrying about planning a week of activities for all of the missionaries, feeding them, transporting them and providing spiritual enlightenment.  I was feeling totally overwhelmed about a week ago but now I just am taking it one day at a time and making lots of lists to keep me on track on what I need to do each day.  Only time will tell if they work or not.

This past week we had zone conference and it was great to meet with everyone.  Boy, how the missionaries love to be together.

everyone is just a little excited for Christmas!

Elder Fagg from England.  Another bike casualty.  Had to have surgery to repair his broken wrist.  What a trooper though - he showed up at zone conference the next day.

Our landlord brought this over for Christmas.  He has rented to senior couple missionaries for the past 8 years and still doesn't connect us with the standards.

Sad picture but this was our branch activity the other night when we watched the First Presidency Devotional.   Excellent!

Another narrow street that Bill found.

Hope everyone has a very Merry Christmas!  We miss you all and send our love !

Chronia Polah!
