Hello all!!
This week is my 11th email home. There are less than three weeks to Christmas and then on to the new year. I'm excited and looking forward to the season as it continues. Light the World has been amazing and an incredible tool in our efforts to find and teach about Christ. We have an amazing opportunity to hear from a Seventy this week and Neil L. Anderson as well. This week will be one to remember as Neil L Anderson is addressing our mission specifically.
This past week was a solid one but nothing too crazy happened. My new area is pretty sketch lowkey and one of our apartment complexes always has some sort of crap going down. We overheard multiple arguments this week which can get pretty funny. And we see some other iffy stuff but we mostly just mind our business. We have been eating good, grilling and just generally making good eats. Next week we find out our new transfers, so I could end up somewhere else or I could stay here, who knows? It's been kinda chilly so I bought some thermals to wear under the pants and they have been awesome. We really didn't have much special happen this week. We taught some great people, one man, Michael met with missionaries a while back and they changed his life. He decided to become sober and is now over a month sober and going regularly to AA meetings. Its amazing how the gospel can bless peoples lives and I'm glad I get to be a part of it every day. Some of our super solid friends moved away and that was really sad because they were just about to be baptized, so we sent them to the elders in there new area and hopefully they still keep their commitment. Its weird to think its Christmas season here cause there's no snow and its only ever fairly chilly not freezing. Also something about being a missionary makes holidays different. Maybe it's the fact we don't get them off lol. I don't know but I'm excited for Christmas anyways. I hope you all are doing well and I hope that you stay safe this coming week. I love and miss all of you daily.
Love
Elder Murray
