Grateful (from Nov 25)

What Sister McElderry is grateful for this week:

I'm grateful that we have several really good people that we are teaching.

I'm grateful that we work with a really supportive ward, where people sacrifice their time to go out and work with us. 

I'm grateful that we have a nice car that keeps us warm instead of having to bike everywhere.

I'm grateful to Sister Curtis in our ward for loaning me tights and sweaters and a coat to keep me warm because I thought I was going to warm, sunny Brazil.

I'm grateful for the 8 Thanksgiving dinner invitations we have.  (And for the P90X DVDs I was given to help me work those meals off!)

I'm grateful to all the people this week who sent me letters and packages and made my week a little bit brighter. 

I'm grateful for all of the character building experiences I have while tracting.

I'm grateful that I've been in Biloxi long enough to watch our investigators grow in their faith and testimonies. 

I'm grateful that Heavenly Father has called me to be a missionary at this time and has blessed me with all of these experiences.

I'm grateful at the start of this holiday season for my Savior, Jesus Christ.  That he came to this earth to humbly show us the way to eternal happiness and salvation.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

Love,

Sister McElderry
