Today was the day we got to hear her voice...Christi is doing great and sounds fantastic. She got to her new area a week ago and says that Bremen is a much bigger city. It's still new to her, so the coming weeks will most likely bring a lot of new investigators and stories. She told us that the German people really love their holidays...and Christmas is 3 days long. They celebrate on Christmas Eve...then Christmas day is Christmas #1 and the 26th is Christmas #2. Christi was able to spend Christmas day with a missionary couple and the Bishop's family in her new ward. She said she had a great day! During her conversation with her family, she bore her testimony in German...
They also convinced her to sing "O Holy Night" (for those of you who aren't aware, Christi is a bit of a singer...okay really she has the most beautiful voice, and this song is the one we expect to hear every Christmas)...of course after much stalling on the phone she gave them about 10 seconds...
It was great to hear her voice and to know that she is happy and doing well! We are all excited to hear from her next week via email and hear more about her new area and the people she will be serving there. Thanks to all of you who continue to support her and pray for her!
Happy Holidays to you all!
