First off, did you get the pictures? I send a bunch, but this email seems to not like them sometimes, and you didn't say anything about it so I was just wondering.
I'm glad to hear that Paul is doing well, and his family are adjusting. That is a scary thing to deal with, but I know you are taking care of them. Did you get a new hometeaching companion, or are you by yourself?
This week has been very slow. Monday we played risk for like five hours. I won every time we played starting with 3 people, but have yet to win with 4. I'm not sure why that is, but everyone seems to hate me when we play with 4. We went and walked around some stores in the mall, and we found a clearance rack of ties that were only three dollars, so I got a couple. Nice three dollar ties is a deal to good to pass up.
Wednesday we had three appoinments set up with potential investigators, and all of them fell through. It's not very fun when few people care, and the rest shame them into not inviting us in. Its sad to see that they have the truth so close, but can't seem to grasp it.
Thursday I got sick, which is quite possibly the worst thing that can happen on the mission. We had to stay inside for 2 days and do nothing while I got better. Thursday I mostly slept, but friday I was feeling better so we played risk with the other elders that were also sick. It made a bad day bearable.
Sunday we had a Stake Christmas Concert, where the stake choir, and the ward choirs performed a special Christmas program. It was really good, and was a great way to finish the week.
Ok so here's the deal for Christmas phone calls. Make sure you talk to mom about this because I'm sure she'll murder you if you don't. We are not allowed to call home anymore....
I'm just kidding. Please don't hate me for that, but I wanted to spice up the email.
Our ward is combining with another ward for sacrament on Christmas day. The meeting will be at 11:30. I will be calling from our ward mission leaders house sometime either before of after that. Your church is at 11, right? I'm thinking I could call maybe around 1 or so. Let me know what time will work best for you, and we will make arrangements accordingly. I need to know by next week though, so decide on a time between 1-4, because that will work best for us.
I think thats it for now. I love you guys.
Elder Schultz.
