Ok so this week Elder Abadicio and I were tracking it was like 8:30 and we are cold well we are always cold you just never get competently warm haha. But we knocked on this one laddies home (quick side note if it is cold out side we dont need fellowship to step into a women house for only like the 3 min or 5 min really nice) but so this laddie lets us in and right aways she goes in to bible bashing mode and telling us we don't read the scriptures well and telling us everything that she thinks she know about us. . .one of the things she talked about is why it is important NOT to have Christmas (because we are not supposed to follow the traditions of men) so we just kindly said sorry for getting you all worked up. Thanks for letting us visit with you for a little bit. . . All that night I was trying to figure that out WHY do we Christmas and this is what I came up with
:
Articles of Faith 1:13
We believe in being honest, true, chaste, benevolent, virtuous, and in doing good to all men; indeed, we may say that we follow the admonition of Paul—We believe all things, we hope all things, we have endured many things, and hope to be able to endure all things. If there is anything virtuous, lovely, or of good report or praiseworthy, we seek after these things.
Right there at the end of 13... Christmas is the time when people are not most Charitable. People Give and help other. We try to be the light of the World. We try to make the world a better place !
And this just made me think why would we not have Christmas. Why would we wont to get ride of happiness That because of Christs we have ?!?!
I know that Jesus Christ Love each and everyone one of us. There is not one person that is not able to feel the love of Christ. If we want to feel the Love that our Heavenly Father has for us MORE FULLY we have to build a Relation ship with our Father in Heaven. and How we do that is by talking with him(Prayer) and them listening ( through personal revelations or the Most Common way it through Reading the Scriptures (mainly the Book of Mormon) The Book of Mormon has Power to help lift harts and strengthen each and everyone of us.
I love the Gospel I love that I do have a Loving Heavenly Father that wants to hear form me each and everyday...
One thing I miss about home is the Temple being able to go when ever... would each and everyone of you who can make it to the temple make an effort and go !
Thanks
With love Elder Wade

The Canada Winnipeg Mission
The work is slow so just some stories for you. . . Well Elder Abadicio and I are getting a long great ! so like during lunch break we play some basketball (P.I.G) with a small hoop and well this week during the night someone slipped us a letter that our neighbors they called themselves they said somthing like we have talked to the office about the noise you make and they told us to get the Winnipeg police involved to get you to stop making noise sooo will you stop before we get the cops. . . Kinda stupid just come tell us to stop in person we did not ever realize we were even making so much noise !
ok when i was with Elder Linford we were tracking and it was like 8:30 pm and we are just going for door to door and We walked up to this door and I knocked on it just like a small tap as I was reading this paper he had on his door. it said DO NOT KNOCK ON MY DOOR AFTER 7PM and when I tapped the door Dogs barking and Barking and we panicked thinking what do we do what do we do !?!?! SOO probably should not have done this but We ran away for the door as fast as we could haha
well Merry Christmas !
thanks for all the Prayers !

Hey !! All the Way From Canada !!
This week was good we have been trying so hard to find people to teach that are interested (tracting has not been going good for me ) haha well I am learning a lot about how the spirit work ! I is hard to explain. .. there is no better way of saying it then if it leads you to do good it is of God. and that is a great way to start to realize the promptings of the spirit and then as you continue to follow those you began to realize how the spirit speaks to you all the time !
I know that the Lord loves each and everyone one of us he Knows our tries and knows our weakness... Which means He knows how to make us stronger and work a "if we are on the right path it will Always be up hill"
I know that the Lord Really does want the best for us !
Thanks for all the love and support !

Oh Canada!
So Thursday Night Elder Linford and I get a call form the assistance at 9:30 pm and they tell us Elder linford is getting moved. . . I am getting a new comp who is coming in form New Zeland (sorry I don't know how to spell it) so that is gooding to be awesome !! (oh and that is all happing this week mid transfer !) Kinda Crazy Eh
It will all work out !
so this week Elder Linford and I since we have not had any success finding people we went through ALL Potential Records (people who said come back and the missionarys before were unale to contact them again) (100 people) and made this map of our area so and put everyone on it so we can stop by everyone of them and see if they are interested again. . . so far no luck . . .we have only been able to do 10 out of the 100 so 90 more to go !! haha
The weather here well. . . there has not been a day here since October 25 that there has not been snow on the ground !! I am still warm thou like all I use is just a middle temp. jacket and my church shoes (all my other clothes also for any of you who my have been confused about that statement haha) ( So no boots yet. . . I got to warm of boots my feet would be to hot and that is no fun walking around in)
This week there was also a Filipino party and all the missionarys were also to come also which was great! . . . BUT. . . They asked us to sing a Christmas song for all of them so we said we would. . .Then the Zone leaders had to go give a blessing so they left then 2 other sisters were using the bathroom at the time so 4 of us get up there to sing and we start the other 3 missionaries started so not sing anymore ( like they were but they could not stop them selfs form laughing so it seemed to me I was infront of 85 -100 Filipinos singing a solo . . . it was funny because then one of the people can a sang with us because he felt bad for us. . . haha so yeah
Well I hope all is going well for all of you back at home in good old Utah !!
