Hey everybody!
It sounds and looks like you had quite the week! I sure wish
I could have been in Mexico with you all. Whenever members ask what we do for
Christmas traditions they are always pretty shocked by what we do. They always
want to do it as well.
My week wasn't quite as busy and crazy as yours but it was
still a lot of fun. It wasn't as cold this week but it was still pretty cold.
We spent a lot of time on the streets talking to people. Here it is still in
the middle of the Christmas holiday so nobody really cares much for us. We had
a good new years though! We were still supposed to go to bed at 10.30 and work
like a normal day so as we were out and about things started to explode at
around four o'clock. They like to throw fire-crackers into trash cans to make
it extra loud. Luckily we still hadn't done our studies in the evening so we
went in before it got too nuts. All night we could hear loud explosions. The
next day was absolutely dead. Everybody was way to tired and wasted to dare
coming outside.
I went on exchange to work in Wiener Neustadt with Elder
Durrant. Weiner Neustadt is a lot like St. Pölten. It was really great to get
some fresh air! I never realize how gross the air is here until I go work in a
small place. I got to do a service project in the evening loading wood and
stacking it. It felt great to be out in the quiet and work with my hands a
bit.
The next few weeks are going to be great! Our friends that
we are teaching are all coming back from trips for Christmas. We will get to
see them again and we will have more work to do.
I hope that you have a great week! I would love to see a
picture of Finn! I love you all!
Elder Eldredge
