Christmas

 Hello everyone! I'm lazy so I'm going to make this email quick with some pictures.

Christmas was awesome! We watched Fiddler on the Roof which is an awesome movie and would recommend. It was a cool experience too in terms of being a missionary because we created a little Facebook program celebrating Christ's birth which a few people joined and it was awesome. We got lots of sweets and food. We also delivered some gifts to members and friends who also got stuff for us and it felt nice to be able to help others in even the small ways. A lot of people who aren't members were very appreciative of the gifts and even gave us gifts in return. It made me happy because everyone was showing kindness despite differences in faiths and beliefs.

It snowed the day after and it was beautiful and really reminded me of skiing. For pday we hiked around in some snow with an awesome friend of ours named Adnan, a very friendly guy. It felt so good to be in fresh air and with a bunch of snow.

 

Also there is a friend of ours we do these calls every week, we call them toastmasters, where we ask questions to one another and answer in the other's language. Like we answer in Bosnian and they answer in English. But this last one we did, this guy named Fadil, super hilarious guy and I love him, was telling us how grateful he was for the work we do. He said stuff like (I am paraphrasing) "English class normally costs like 200 dollars but you guys do it for free. From the bottom of my heart I thank you guys and I am so thankful to meet you. All those other guys who don't listen to you are STUPID" then he proceeded to just hype us up. It was so nice, and Fadil isn't a member either, just a friend of ours. It makes me so happy to have relationships like this with people.
