Boldog Karacsonyt!!!!
Heyo!!! So Kispest is super fun! We have three awesome
investigators! Lili, a 9 year old, is getting baptized this transfer and Ilona,
a néni whose son is a member, we are committing to baptism this week! The last
we will be working towards baptism this transfer if we can meet up with him.
His name is Robi and he has been meeting with the missionaries for the past 20
years! So we will work with him haha
I live in a 10 story which is cool! We live on the 8th floor
so we have a sweet view of all the ten stories in Kispest haha. The Kispest
boundaries consist of actual Kispest and the downtown area of Pest so we have
all the beautiful parts of Pest! Me and Elder Gajdos are in charge of actual
Kispest which are all the ten stories but it's all good because that means we
get to talk to lots of people!
This past week we had several Christmas programs! President
allowed us to go see the Christmas concert the stake was putting on at the
stake center in Pest and it was super good! I can't believe how much talent the
Budapest stake has!
On Saturday the Kispest ward put on a talent show and we as
a district performed an act it was awesome! I shared a video on my google
account so you can all see it. We did the act again in our Christmas zone
conference so that is the video but we did the same act both times haha.
And that is why I was not able to email yesterday. We had
our Christmas zone conference and it was literally the best! We got to watch
President's favorite movie "The Little Prince!" If you haven't seen
it you should watch it! It is super good! We had a white elephant game and I
got this sowing kit box and a chicken toy thingy. The AP's and the
secretaries put on this sweet program. Elder Heaps, one of the AP's was Santa and each gave us a Christmas card and a pen which had our name engrave on
it!
And of course today was my birthday!!!! The big 20!!!! Thank
you for all the birthday wishes you are all the best!! I wish you all the best
and a happy and a Merry Christmas!! Remember Christ and His birth and don't
forget to serve others!!
With love,
Elder Ballard
