This week has been an unusual one. We spent a lot of
time preparing for the nativity display. We set up over 200 nativity
sets, Christmas decorations, lights, and fake snow. It truly is
beautiful! Last night we watched the Christmas devotional amid all the
nativities. It was a neat experience. We participated in a town parade
on Saturday in which we handed out candy and invites to the nativity.
Last
week we met a woman outside her home while we were knocking (on that
same street I told you about last week that we couldn't find forever).
She invited us in to watch the Joy to the World DVD with her, her
friend, and her two daughters. It was an answer to my prayers as well as
hers. Hearts are truly softened at Christmas time. It is such a
blessing!
We had a powerful branch testimony
meeting yesterday. I felt the Spirit so strongly as the few members that
were there shared their testimonies of the Savior. I am grateful for
the strong members in this branch and their example to me. I have much
to learn from them and their desire to serve the Savior.
We
also participated in a community choir concert this last weekend. Elder
Walker and I played a piano and violin duet of a mash up of What Child
is This and Carol of the Bells.
Hope you have a good week!
Sister Renda
