First off, I want to say thank you for all of the awesome letters, gifts, presents, and love that I have felt this Christmas! I don't have very much time really at all to write back, but I do really enjoy getting the letters, and reading them! I hope that my weekly email suffices for my lack of letter writing!
One of the highlights of a recent conference for me, was that I got to sing with 7 other Elders an a Capella version of Brightly Beams our Father's Mercy.

I'm so grateful Sister Tew called me and asked me to arrange a number, it was a great experience!

As a way to bridge the culture gap, we Elders learned how to do the Cambodian dance, Rom Vong Angkor, and performed it for over 200 people! They loved it! It was really fun, and really hard not to laugh at times. Chan, one of our Recent Converts from this year, taught us how to do part of the dance.

Sometimes it's easy in missionary work to brush off quick lessons about prayer, or small points of doctrine, but this lesson and the individual I taught proved to me that every second counts.
