Merry Christmas..... Almost

This week went by really quickly. It was a good week. We now have a few people working towards baptism. Its strange, I went from teaching mostly people from Burma to teaching mostly people from Africa. The ones from Africa speak a lot better English though. I am enjoying working with them. They are humble and unlike many of the people we talk to, they don’t assume they already know everything there is to know about Mormons. I am enjoying teaching the people here in Iowa and I am excited to continue to meet new people. It is hard to tell that the Christmas season is approaching. Usually you cant see the ground out here because there is too much snow, but this year is extremely mild. I hope we get some moister soon because the farmers really need it. Because next Monday is Christmas eve I don’t yet know if I will get the opportunity to email. I am looking forward to talking to my family next Tuesday. Also know that there is a 99.999999999999999% chance of me being transferred. If you are going to send something directly to my apartment instead of the 8515 address I may not get it if it is sent after Tuesday of this week(that is the 18th). If you send it to the 8515 address it will be forwarded to me. Transfer calls are this Saturday and I will let you know the verdict in my next email. Elder Deering is doing well. He is a good missionary. They call me the trainer but I am learning much more from him then I have ever taught him. I love all of you. I thank you for your Christmas wishes and although I am too poor to send anything to most of you, know that I wish you well and that I care for all of you. I know that the Book of Mormon is true and that this church is Gods kingdom once again established on the earth. I hope all of you have an amazing week and a merry Christmas.
