Hello family!
I had a great week. We went to the New York New York North Christmas devotional where we were able to see everyone from the mission. It was so so fun to see sister Awerkamp, Matthews and sister Wilkes. We were able to talk, exchange stories, and to enjoy each other's company again. It was a sweet experience. Performing in the choir was such an amazing experience. I felt the spirit so strongly as we sang the last song Joy to the world. Music has always touched my heart in a special way and being able to perform with so many talented singers to create such beautiful music was just so amazing. We had a giant lunch with all of the missionaries. The tables were decorated with stockings on every chair. It kind of felt a little bit like we were in a Harry Potter movie. They played a slideshow of the pictures missionaries submitted. We were spoiled by our mission president and his wife. I love them both so much and feel so blessed to be a part of this wonderful mission.
But that was the really exciting thing that happened this week. We had the ward Christmas party and the relief society Christmas party is coming up as well. Things of been kind of slow it's trying to get used to the iPad. We have to enter in all of the information from the area book into the iPad. It has been taking quite a long time. They also want us to spend an hour or so Facebook every day. We haven't been spending that much time on Facebook but this Saturday we hope to have a Facebook event. The elders in our ward did one and had a great turnout in a really good conversation.
I'm really sorry this is so short. We had a zone activity today and we made gingerbread houses. It was a ton of fun!! It was district against district And our gingerbread house totally won! So I didn't have very much time to email. But I hope that all is well back at home and that you're having a wonderful Christmas season! I love you so much!
Love sister Lounsbury
