Hi!
This has been a really great week and Christmas is
coming up so fast! The Christmas spirit is really strong, and we went caroling
the other night with the zusters. Dutch people don't really know what caroling
is and a few of them didn't know how to react, but some of the people we visited
loved it. The zusters made them cookies and one of the people we visit weekly, who is an older guy, loved it. He opened the door and we started singing and he
was dancing and had the biggest smile. He can't make it to church because of
health issues but has a sterk (strong) testimony. He's awesome. We also talked
to Canadians on the train ride to Almere today and it was cool. We heard them
speaking English and we asked them where they were from and we started talking
to them. It was awesome to talk to people from Canada!
It's good to hear that Kasey is doing well. Pet her
for me. Dogs live so long in the Netherlands. Whenever we ask people how old
their dog is they always tell us that they're 14 or 16 years old. Send me a
picture of the tree! I saw the video about Christmas and I love it. We share it
with less actives members and pretty much everyone. It's called Hij is het
Geschenk. He is the Gift. I really like what Kaylee is doing in her mission, by
doing what Christ would do. What are you doing for Kerst (Christmas)? We had an
awesome ward party last night and the members decorated the chapel and some
people performed a musical number. There was a cool slideshow with scriptures
and bible videos. It was really festive and we sang Christmas hymns and the
koor (choir), which we are in, sang a musical number. It was a lot of fun and the
ward members are great. You should watch all the bible videos, they're really
good. I love you guys and I can't wait to talk to you!!! Have a great Christmas
week and a Happy New Year! Fijne feestdagen!
Groetjes,
Jeremy
