Sister Paige Martin. Syracuse, New York Mission

Hello and Merry Christmas!   TUESDAY: We had our rescheduled zone conference, which was really good! We talked about why the name of The Church of Jesus Christ was so important! And what truths that were restored through the church are most important to us. Which was a lot of fun!  We were also on exchanges. We had a crazy lesson with one of their friends and in between crying children we talked about where we go after we die. And the priesthood.  We also visited the temple to drop something off then drove home. (All this was in palmyra New York) WEDNESDAY: We planned and went about doing normal missionary stuff!  And for dinner we went with one of the members and our friends! It was a lot of fun! And we were also able to say hello to someone else we knew! We also had miracle night, which is always inspiring! SATURDAY: Was Christmas Eve! Which was amazing!

TUESDAY: Well we had decided to walk to someone we were trying to find... as missionaries do. And we had a lesson with someone else afterwards. So we get to the lesson, with a inactive member Sister Baker. And during our conversation she was like. I saw you girls playing out in the cold and tried yelling hello, you didn't hear me. And we were like.... sorry. But she was good with it and made us cocoa!  WEDNESDAY: We had a great lesson with our friend Bev. And we were also able to visit with the 99 year old woman again, Mary, which was so much fun! THURSDAY: So we have started getting snow! And we had Zone ...

WEDNESDAY:  So on Wednesday we go to district council, (a gathering of missionaries in a specific area) and on the way back we stopped to grab some food since we didn't have time to stop by home and make some. And we go to pay then a man comes up to pay for us! But.. it seems a mystery lady already had paid!!  We were all so Surprised! We were also able to teach one of our friends about prophets! Which was awesome because I had been wanting to do so for awhile!!! THURSDAY:  We went to service! It was really fun we ran bingo and served lunch for some older ladies. We also had been practicing for a music piece and had some of our members enter towards the end to decorate for the upcoming Christmas Dinner. We also had some great lessons with our friends Bethany and Brianna!  FRIDAY:  Was amazing! We ...

  Hello, and Merry Christmas! TUESDAY: We had some good knocking. We had stopped by one man's house and he came out! He said he would be happy to talk if we could catch him between hunting! So we'll see how that goes.  While we were out walking we decided to take pictures by the cool river.  Not much snow here yet. WEDNESDAY: So one of our members is amazing and we haven't really been able to talk to his wife up till... today! So normally we meet on his porch because his wife is almost never home but this week he invited us in and his wife was there! We are so excited for her! Go Bev!!  We also got to watch another friend, Brian, sing. He gave us a shout out so that was cool at the diner where he was singing.
