So this week it has been really chilly! And basically all of our investigators were and are out of town for thanksgiving. So that stunk so we worked with some recent converts and some less active members a lot! Christmas lights are starting to go up everywhere here and it's getting really pretty! We have been giving out book of Mormons like candy which is good I hope they will turn out to bring some investigators from it! Also the church is doing a cool campaign for Christmas called, He is the gift", and they have supposedly bought a ton of Times Square ad space, and it's in our area so I'm definitely going to go check it out! A cool thing I learned in one of my studies is that almost all the wicked people are searching for something where they will never find it, they are searching for true happiness, but it will never be found in sin and inquity. I just think it's so true.
Living the gospel will bring you joy! Tomorrow will be interesting. We aren't allowed to go proselyte tomorrow so we will be confirming a lot of appointments today. Anyways I hope you all have a great week!
