This week was wild and not super productive for the work. We got a total of 8 proselyting hours, 7 CSP hours, and 2 days at Christmas Conference. Wednesday was a full day setup of the Cultural Hall.  President Bangal came by at about 11:30 and ordered us a lunch and he thought we would be done at 1:00. So when he came back at 5:30 and we were just about to wrap up he was not very happy. By not very happy I mean he got kinda mad at us haha. He came in the side door and only saw the back wall of the stage, but when he went down to the center of the hall and saw the full affect he started to smile and I knew he couldn’t get mad anymore, he was satisfied. He did mention though during his presentation on Friday, that next year, they would only be re-doing what we had done and that they wouldn’t stay until night. That was one of the only days ever on my mission that I didn’t put on procelyting clothes. The conference was a huge success. It was great. We watched The Cokeville Miracle, a very spiritual and tear-jerking movie. Had a lot of fun presentations and games and Lots of great Games.

Last Sunday we had a Stake event, we watched the Christmas Devotional put on by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. The 3 speakers had very good personal stories and mixed in Doctrinal backups. I would invite everyone to gather your families around and watch it now to add a little bit of Christmas Spirit to your Holiday Season. The second speaker’s description of Christmas is very close to what we experience here in the Philippines. 

I'm running low on time but Thanks for all of the people who read this 15 months later. 

Merry Christmas


Elder Hennessey
