Hello!
How are you all? I hope all is well in Arizona!
I'm
sorry there's not too much to report on this week! It's been really
cold and snowy, which means we can't ride our bikes. It's a lot slower
walking, and I just wish we could get around faster! But we have been
shoveling a lot of snow in between appointments. This is the first real
time I've ever lived in the snow. I think I would like it, if it weren't
a hindrance to the work...

But
things are still going well. We've had a couple of good lessons with
members. President Murdock has asked us to set up appointments with
active members for 8:00pm, our least effective time. We have been asked
to teach one of the lessons to help get the members into the spirit of
the hastening. It also gives us a good chance to practice teaching!
Transfers
are coming up in one week, so the next time I email, I'll know if I'm
staying or going. I'm about due for a transfer, but for some reason I
feel like I'll be staying here. Maybe I'll be here for the rest of my
mission. Who knows?! Thank you, Mom and Dad, for the awesome package! As
a district leader, I conduct companion exchanges within the district.
We held one on Tuesday, and I went to another area. The other
missionaries pointed out how I hadn't brought a second tie for the next
day (we spend the night on exchanges). I got your package that day,
however, and I had brought it with me. I opened it up and, Lo! and
behold! an awesome Christmas tie! So I wore that on the day of
exchanges. The candy you sent me was gone by that morning. Much
appreciated!
I hope you all are well and are having an excellent holiday season! Remember the reason we celebrate! I love you!
Sincerely,
Elder Rogers
