These missionaries were excited and happy and ready for Christmas!
Here are some highlights...
They really had decked the halls!
The decorations were beautiful..
Elder Long’s Welcome
Pictures, pictures everywhere!
Thank you to Elder Schank for playing
the piano for us while we sang
Christmas carols.
Skits and musical numbers
Here we are with all three Guadalajara zones!
The Twelve Days of Christmas song
We divided everyone into twelve small groups and had
them create a poster for their part of the song
The Twelve Days of Christmas
Drawing two turtle doves, or nine ladies dancing
or twelve drummers drumming...etc
Then, as we sang the song, each group held their sign
up high and sang out, loud and clear.. their part. It was fun!
Getting ready for the gift exchange!
The gifts changed hands again and again as a silly
story was read by the assistants leading everyone to
trade their gifts to the right or to the left!
President and I sang a family favorite...
Christmas is coming, the goose is getting fat...
Please put a penny in the old man's hat.
If you haven't got a penny, a ha'penny will do.
If you haven't got a ha'penny, then
God bless you!
God bless you!

from Luke 2.
Let's take one more look at these outstanding missionaries!
Merry Christmas to all!
