My hat goes off to moms around the world who, in times past, have not had the conveniences of technology as their boys have served missions. I’m especially grateful for Monday emails…and am looking forward to a CHRISTMAS PHONE CALL! But, with all of the commotion right now in the Ivory Coast and the missionaries having to evacuate to another country…there’s absolutely no hope at all that Bailey will receive any of our holiday packages (kind of a bummer!). So, we got together the other night with Brent’s family and put together some Christmas wishes to send in his email this week! For we know…more than anything else…that the holiday is about honoring and celebrating the birth, life and resurrection of our Savior. It’s about our families, serving others and making time in our lives to become more like Christ.
Westin, KayDee, David, Kimber, Kayt, Jessica, Jordan, Whitney, Courtney, Tyler, Stacie, Tom, and EJ...some of the cousins, sisters and brothers wishing Elder Shaffer a Merry Christmas!
Here's a wish from Grandpa and Grandma Shaffer!
Uncle Brian, Uncle Larry, Aunt Julie, Aunt Sherri, Mom and Dad say, "Joyeux Noel, Elder Shaffer!"
(How's our French?)
