Merry New Year! 12/29/14


 Hey Family and Friends,

We had a wonderful Christmas! It was great being able to see my wonderful family doing well! I will be eternally grateful for the blessings the Lord has given to my family while I have been away performing the Lord's work in Oklahoma!

This week weatherwise it looks like the temperatures are going to start falling. There's news of a storm that is going to find itself in Oklahoma come New Years, so it seems that we may be getting some freezing rain and other odd weather events. Many have said that this winter is supposed to be a difficult one, but we haven't seen any harsh effects quite yet.

This week was filled with door knocking and less active finding. We have had some former investigators express interest to be taught again so we're excited for this week!
On Saturday we went to go visit Randy and Shirley Sheppard, however when Randy answered the door he said that they were no longer interested in learning more. Unfortunate, really, but I think with time he may come around again.
Chelsae White has been out of town, so she hasn't been able to meet with us still. It's really questionable when you set a baptismal date with someone and then you don't see them for a month. We hope to get back into contact with her soon.

Well, this is going to have to be shortened a bit, we have a busy P-day this week. I will leave with pictures of our district, zone, and some other random one's I've taken along the way.

1181 - Einstein was a genius! Basically all quotes apply to missionary work, and this one definitely applies!
1078 - The silly picture we took of our district at Bev's Breakfast Restaurant. Notice that my companion is smiling!  (Note from Michelle: This photo actually never got put on this letter! )
1177 - The normal picture we took at Bev's.
1167 - Our Zone P-day we had last Monday. A crazy Christmas party with a ugly sweater contest! (I don't have any ugly sweaters...)
1182 - Gingerbread houses we made that made me late for my skyping appointment with my family!

Keep your faith strong in the gospel! Get to know your savior better through the scriptures. And remember, always apply 1 Nephi 15:24-25!

Love ya!

Elder Holbrook
