Hey Mom! 

It felt like everything just went by so fast (our SKYPE)! I just did not realize how little time I have. It's definitely sad. I have enjoyed my mission a ton so far and I still have time to continue to enjoy it! 

Yeah! So we took Bishop Zmuda with us last night and they were all three (T and his family) there. He told us he felt prompted to see if they would all like to be baptized as a family or what he thought of is having T baptized and help him receive the priesthood so then he could baptize his sister and mom. It was a very powerful lesson and Bishop Zmuda is a great man. Very inspired. They are going to let us know tonight. That was probably the most spiritual thing about the week and also I definitely received an answer to a prayer in Elders quorum. It was really cool because we did not know what to share with a less active here who is struggling but the answer came in that lesson. I felt prompted to write it down so I did. Just lots of good things happening. We have not seen D, and I think one of the biggest ways is just really being able to care for anyone. I definitely love everyone out here no matter their circumstances. I see everything in a different prospective. I would say that. Just grown a ton spiritually cause I have read so much and prayed. It has been really great. So it was a pretty solid week for us and T actually just told us that now his Dad and Grandma are interested! That is a miracle in its own. So we are so excited! I love this area. We had 4 dinners on Christmas and got a couple Christmas cards from people.

I can tell just by the way everything has worked out. I guess nothing has really hit me just because I'm so into my mission that when I hear these things it's so weird and I guess I don't feel it's happening if that makes sense? But I trust the Lord. 

Well I hope the move goes well and send me pictures if you have some too! When you get there. 

Thank you again for the Christmas presents! Love ya momma! 

Love, 

Elder McArthur
