Merry Christmas Everyone!
I hope we are striving to remember Christ this Christmas season! It's a great opportunity to be reminded to continue to worship, adore, and be grateful to the Father for Jesus Christ, the greatest gift any of us has ever received.
My companion and I are seeing many miracles right now! Yesterday right after church, we had the chance to go see a referral we had received a day earlier. The name for the referral was Randy Sheppard, and we called him just before we left to make sure that he would be home so we could stop by for a visit. He answered and said that he would be grateful if we could come as soon as we could, so we drove up there with one of the senior couple missionaries that live up near the town Crescent, which we cover as part of our area. We met him and his mother, Shirley. We introduced the Book of Mormon to them and Randy was all about it. He had a friend several years ago that introduced him to the teachings of the church and I guess the spirit worked on him 'till he got the courage to refer himself. Shirley is a bit interested, not as much as Randy, but we will see if she makes some progress!
Chelsae wasn't able to make it to church this week. I think that she was intending to come but something fell through. We're hoping to be able to meet with her sometime this week. We haven't had close contact recently, but she says that she's reading and praying so she still is making progress.
I'm really excited for the Christmas season and all that it brings! Remember the spirit that we feel in Christmas can be with us continually as we strive to remember Christ in all things!
Love you all,
Elder Holbrook
