Good morning to those who might read this email this morning!
What a wonderful time of year! My mother is the best. She sent me a Christmas tree and some gifts to put under the tree. It looked nice and cute! She is so good ❤ we spent our Christmas over at a couple of members homes. We played spikeball, basketball, ping pong, played games, watched movies, and ate loads of food! Geez do I feel bigger!
Thank you to all who sent me Christmas cards, notes, and letters. It's so thoughtful and kind!
I am looking forward to the New Year. It will be exciting to start the new year with an emphasis in Doctrine and Covenants (modern day revelations). I'm excited! Make sure you all get your come follow me manuels!!
Jesus Christ is the center of everything we do as missionaries. He lights the pathway that we are striving to follow. Now not everyday as a missionary is easy, but it is quite fun to read the scriptures, have it make sense, and then apply those teachings in some way shape or form. Just know that I believe in Christ. I know he lives because of the experiences I have had thus far in my life. I know the Book of Mormon is the word of God and allows for further understanding than what the Bible gives. These two books work together to complete the whole story and history necessary for us to succeed in our lives. We have a living prophet, and he has blessed my life.
I hope you all have a wonderful and safe new year!
Love, Elder Ricks
