Ya'at'eeh Keshmish Pt.2

Funny: rather than having the traditional snowmen, the people out here build snowmen out of sand. With the occasional snowman made out of tumble weeds. It definitely puts a different spin on Christmas but is really fun to still see people celebrating however they can.

Spiritual: white washing and training around Christmas time is a perfect setup for some incredible miracles and the Lord blessed us greatly. We received a referral from the Elders Quorum president for a returning member. When we got there, he wasn't home but his neighbor was. He told us that he normally doesn't let missionaries in but because it is Christmas time he would. We shared the Light the World campaign and as we were talking about the birth of Jesus Christ, he told us that he felt really good about us and our message. He went and got his mom and grandma to listen to our message. We ended up teaching a wonderful family. What a good time to be a missionary!

Where I am at: Tuba city is a promised land! There is so much work to do and we are having a great time figuring everything out. The members treat us great and our love for this people is growing so much! Christmas should be fun, we are planning on having a drybread (similar to frybread) contest and hopefully we will go on a hike. I hope that you have a very merry Keshmish!
