What a wonderful week! Christmas in France was sooo good! One of the highlights was our surprise Christmas to a family we are teaching. They are from Albania and they were not able to have a Christmas. So us and ward members but together gifts for the kids and a Christmas dinner. One of the ward members even dressed up as Santa! It was so cute and they were all so happy! It was one of the happiest moments on my mission. This week we also had MLC (Mission Leadership Council), and we got to FLY to Lyon! I went on a plane! It was so much fun! And the conference was really good too! We talked A lot about goal setting and planning. If we want to go anywhere in life we need to set goals and plan on how we are going to get there. Soeur Blackham and I were getting so excited about it, we were talking about our goals for the future. We also had district meeting this week, and I got to see my MTC companion Soeur Thorn! It was a highlight of the week. This week, Soeur Blackham and I were talking about how it has been hard to find people. While talking, we got on a bus and this guy comes up to us and said, "I saw your plaque and I believe in Jesus too". We got in a conversation and have a time to meet with him and start teaching him! It was a miracle! And the best part is that his name is Ange which is Angel in French! It was amazing! Today after we finished our personal study, I turned to Soeur Blackham and said, "Soeur Blackham, I love the Book of Mormon!" As a missionary, she said she did too. She then told me that she didn't enjoy studying it as much before the mission, and I kind of had to agree with her. She continued saying that she read 1 Nephi 6 when he talks about why he is writing. Then in verse 5 he says, "Wherefore, the things which are pleasing unto the world I do not write, but the things which are pleasing unto God and unto those who are not of the world". The reason why she didn't like it much is because she was too much of the world! I had never thought about it like that. I then replied, "I feel like I just got slapped by an Angel". I love you all and I hope you have a wonderful New Year! - Soeur Glazier Next Monday (January 8th) is Soeur Glazier's 20th birthday. I thought it would be fun to blow up her inbox with birthday wishes that she can read throughout her week. So if you have a chance, her email is [email protected]. -- Her Mom :) Lyon when I left two weeks ago! Christmas miracle. It never snows in Lyon.
