The Zone went to the local mall and sang Christmas carols to be enjoyed by all that heard them!

 That's Elder Legas upside down!

 We are LEANING toward having a great Christmas!!! 
Actually, it's going to be the best - so much service and love!

 Elder Hicks and Elder Legas are the Zone Leaders for Lesotho! They planned a spectacular time for all of us! We started at the chapel, sang a Christmas Hymn, played games, and went to a Chinese Restaurant for lunch! Came back to the church and posed for group photos!

 Elder Hinnen

 Elder Nichols - the elf!

 We had a private dining room at the Chinese Restaurant

 President Thompson said the food was quite authentic!

 Most ate with chop sticks!

 The food was delicious!

 Yum!

 Missionaries did great using chop sticks!


 The Assistants put a slide show together of all the missionaries over the year! It was fun to reminisce! 

 Watching the slide show!

 We projected the slide show on a bare wall!


 As we have invited the missionaries to do 12 Days of Service, I also asked the missionaries to give a gift to our Savior on Christmas. They are writing their gift to the Savior, rolling it up, and tying a ribbon around it. On Christmas morning, they will open their gift and read it.  We will share our experiences of December giving in January Zone Conference!




 These valiant young men are wonderful! President Thompson and I are so blessed to have so many wonderful and faithful missionaries. We love them all immensely!




 A photo of SHOES! Elder Legas has his foot in the circle, but is smart to sit down because it's taking a long time to get all the name tags just right!!!



 
Love this picture! Did you know that missionaries are supposed to wear black shoes, or a burgundy or dark brown color, that can be shined? Way to go Lesotho Zone!!!

 Such a great group! It was a wonderful event! Thanks to the Zone Leaders and Porters for making it a success!

 Singing Christmas songs on our walk to the parking lot!

 Great voices!

 Mail delivery!

Looks like Elder Bodnar has a fan club!

Merry Christmas!
