I hope everyone has a great Christmas! I am glad that I am not the only one that will be spending Christmas is a warmer climate. Though I doubt, as I look through beads of sweat at the monitor, that you are going to have temperatures like we are having here.
Like you, I too had the opportunity to go to a Senior Citizen Home, this past week. We went because the Branch was having a service project there. For starters, I would`t mind living at this one. It was ten times nicer than any house I have stepped foot in. The old people are very well taken care of here. They were all very friendly to us. It was a nice addition to my Thursday.
The highlight of the week has got to go to last night. 12 missionaries, and about as many members, formed a little choir. We were invited to an activity that featured preformances from several different churches in the community. If you ever have the chance to stand on a lighted stage, with more than a thousand people watching in the plaza, as you sing Christmas hymns, take it. We did have a pretty hard act to follow with a group of kids playing gospel rock; but I think we took `em. I was lucky enough to have one of the mics stuck RIGHT in front of me. I hope every Argentine present took advantage of the Gringo accent, because I gave it all I got.
Well, this is the week before Christmas. So what better way to celebrate than to read about Christ`s birth in St. Luke?! Give it a shot.
I love you all very much!
Elder McMurray
