That sacrament meeting sounds legendary! I'm pretty jealous. Elder Whitney likes listening to Christmas music year-round so we blast "WInter Wonderland" by MoTab like every day.
No we won't go to that fireside, it's for youth. When they have YSA broadcasts we usually go. Any and all branch activities in the YSA are good for missionaries! More chances to fellowship the members. I'm becoming pretty good friends with a lot of them. We see the branch like almost every day! Between church on Sunday, FHE on Monday, Correlation on Wednesday, Institute on Thursday, and the random other activities that happen spontaneously. This Saturday we had a farewell surprise BBQ for the senior couple serving in the branch, and yesterday we had Sunday Sundae's (a little get together where we have ice cream and play games like LeftRightCentre and Sequence. It's a lot of fun! Once a month they do a Linger Longer after church where they serve a bunch of food for everybody in the gym and we hang out after church! It's really good to build trust with the members and to fellowship investigators who need that social conversion.
We have had some funny experiences on the bus lately. On Saturday we brought a Crokinole board with us and played it with people on the bus and downtown at the park! We also try to get members at every lesson possible and take every opportunity to go finding with them. We have 2 recent converts who are Chinese and we will teach them at UBCO and then bus with them down to the mall, and every time we do, they help us find new investigators! This week we went with D and he spoke Chinese to these girls so they would understand the Book of Mormon better. They wanted to meet up again and learn more! We were so excited that we got off the bus with them and D left his backpack there... So we rushed to the city hall to call the bus and have them look for it. They couldn't find it but told us that it would turn up on Monday so hopefully they got it! He was so depressed about it.
Well, have a good week!
Love you guys!
Elder Clark
