G'day!

 

Hope you have had a wonderful week this past week! Thanks for the e-mail and also for the Thanksgiving package! That was great and Elder Wood and Elder Afele enjoyed the extra's for them as well and say a big 'thanks'! We have had another great week this week and continue to see so many miracles! But unfortunately the internet at the place we do e-mails was down all morning so now we are able to do it (2:30) our time but have to be somewhere in a few minutes so I was pretty crushed knowing I can't e-mail too much info. The main big news for the week is that Simone and Jack are preparing for baptism on the 21st of December! They are really excited to work towards that date and the way it works out, Simone would actually be confirmed on her birthday!! Also, since you talked about Thanksgiving and Thanksgiving 'feasts' in your e-mail, you'll be glad to know that we had a big Thanksgiving feast yesterday with a family in the ward who has some Americans in their family and thus celebrate all the American holidays. So that was very enjoyable! We did have another amazing week this week and are continuing to see heaps of miracles. Over the past 2 weeks combined we've been able to teach 43 lessons, which is really good for us! We are busy literally all the time with people to see, and normally on the mission where my companions and I have had heaps of time to do tracting or talking to people on the street, we maybe get 5 hours maximum a week of finding because we have been blessed with so many appointments. So things are going excellent here in Mooroolbark! Sorry I can't e-mail much this week but hopefully I can make it up next week! Thanks a million for all the love and support and prayers! I love you heaps and I'll talk to you again soon!

 

Love,
