Skyping Home Christmas 2013

With his companion Elder Jackson

December 16, 2013

Aight.  So just a short lil' update for this week. Sorry, I always say that.  I'm just get so sick of emailing. Only 7 more months till I can talk to ya'll in person! (Note from mom: I think he's off on his countdown, but I don't have the heart to tell him.)

We had 3 more baptisms this last week! Elder Linnell was finally able to go home (problem with the exit visas) and we're just still killin' it here. We have a few more baptisms coming up this January. We are just hoping Elder Jackson doesn't get transferred on transfer day the end of this year. 

 

Ahh, I hate typing long emails. I started writing in my journal again.  Anyway, I gotta get going so we can get our Christmas cards printed and finish my Christmas shopping. I'll get ya that nativity set if ya want, but it's a little expensive and kinda big so that might have to be the main gift I bring home for ya mom. 

Love ya! Skype ya next week! Can't wait!

 

(Note from Mom: I was concerned that Elder Molnar is loosing his interest in emailing and posted a comment on FB.  Sister Sperry (the Mission President's wife) wrote:

 

"Hahaha. I just finished my own family email for the week and thought, "these are all sooo the same." It feels like nothing changes. You know a little like Ground Hog Day. I mean, there are new and different stressful things happening every day, but now that's starting to feel normal to me. Whatever normal is. : )"

I hope she doesn't mind me sharing her comment.  It sure made me feel better.  Honestly, I want to hear everything Elder Molnar shares with us, but I am bored writing to him the same ol', same ol' news (or non-news) from home.  Now I get it!)

Life as a Zone Leader

Note from Mom:  There was a very brief email from Elder Molnar last week, stating that he had a very busy week and didn't have time to write. He said that he would send pics this week to make up for it and he did.  But I will have to post them later.  Here's his short but sweet email from this week: 

Aight, sorry haven't really written in a bit so just a short update on things. Life's way good out here. We got a nice lil' 3rd wheel to join us from the Cuayan Mission while he waits for his passport to go home. Poor kid. Ha! 25 months in the mish, but he's dope and it's a blast out here. We are still working hard though. We had a sister baptism last Saturday. Her dad baptized and confirmed her.  We have 3 more baptisms this Friday.

Being a Zone Leader is fun!  There are just a lot of meetings though and our zone is huge! I'm just gettin' stoked for Christmas out here. We have a place to Skype and have been doin' some Christmas shopping.

I finally got to go to the temple last week though. Aahhhh, sooo good. I haven't been in forever.

I need to keep a better journal because I cant remember things. Time just flies way too fast now. But, that's it for today! I hope the pics make up for the lack of writing!

Love ya!
