We got to chat for just a few minutes with Hermana Stanger this moring. Since she is in the MTC, we don't get to video chat. :( But here's her Christmas letter:
Merry Christmas!!!!!! I love you guys so much! The Mtc is pretty great! The spirit here is so strong, especially with it being Christmas. Today we get to hear from a general authority, but I don't know who and it is driving me insane. Last night David F. Evans spoke to us. It was pretty good, but not what I expected for a Christmas eve devotional. He talked about letters! He said to write spiritual experiences so, here goes! Um, a couple days ago, we did this activity where we got to know one of our teachers and then we made a lesson plan (a couple of elders and my companion and I). Our lesson planning was a very quiet time. There was another teacher in there with us and she was freaking out at us for not talking to each other. So then we all shared approximately what we had and it all seemed to fit nicely! So, We started teaching her. Hermana M started us off, then Elder P. They were really focused on trying to speak Spanish, and there isn't anything wrong with that, except they weren't really letting the spirit teach. Then Elder S taught. His part was in English, but it was super powerful. And I got to follow. Mine started in Spanish, but quickly went to English and it was powerful. I made our teacher cry! Its amazing how much power and strength has come because of moms death. And she totally is here with me.
Love ya'll!!!! Hope you're having a great Christmas
