December 21, 2009 Merry Christmas from Minnesota!

Hello Everyone,
I hope all is going well! Things are going good here and we had an enjoyable week. I don't have much time to email today, its been a busy day. But things are progressing well and we got to see the Perez's at church again and we had a lesson at their home as well. There's finally someone in the branch who can speak spanish! But there's always a catch right? He and his wife are only here for 3 months, he's doing an internship, so he'll be gone in March. We're gonna have to use him a lot before then. But things are going well for now.
We got a neat opportunity to go caroling with the youth this week at an old folks' nursing home and that was a very sweet experience. It was so nice seeing their smiles and kind faces as we walked by and sang songs about the cheer of Christmas and of the Savior.
This time of year is so special being able to have our focus on the birth of the Savior. He is the cornerstone of our faith and what a blessing it is to share that with others.
I hope that we all will have the Christmas spirit this season and spread Christlike love to all of our brothers and sisters in the world, old and young, rich and poor, humble and proud. For we all need the love of the Savior in our lives and we're all the children of a kind and wise Father in Heaven.
I hope you all have a very merry Christmas!
Love,
Elder Fitt
