We wish you a Merry Christmas...

I had my first ever Choir Concert last night. Every week the Center puts on a concert for the community. They get some really amazing people to come and perform. Last night the student choir sang Christmas hymns/carols for everyone. We've been working on it for awhile, but we kept getting new songs up until Saturday morning (concert was Sunday night). We did really well, with a few small exceptions. The music was beautiful! It was a neat experience to sing song of Christ for some of those who are from this community. The Spirit was present and I know that it really touched several hearts! I got a few kisses from a couple of little old ladies on their way out. They seemed genuinely uplifted.

11 Days and counting! I can't believe I'm headed home soon! It's a bittersweet thing!

Lots of Love!

Hi Carlee -

I spoke with your dad yesterday and he suggested I check out your blog. What an incredible adventure you're having! Wow...I loved reading all about it. It's hard for me to believe you are so mature since I still think of you the way I knew you when you lived in California. What a beautiful young woman you've grown into - so articulate and spiritual. Thanks for sharing these experiences!

Warmly,

Collette
