December 30, 2013

We too always enjoy those times when it's just us, away from the world. Looking back at vacations, it's always those that we didn't do much and just spent time together that create the best memories. Remember our 4-wheeler trip to Arkansas when we spent the week at a Baptist camp. Or our camping trip in the RV. Then there were the trips to Destin. All best when it was just our little family.  I'm thinking we need another one this summer!

Love ya son!!!

Dad, 

things are going very well this holiday season. We had a baptism last night for a kid named curtis, and he was so great at his baptism. his whole family was crying, and the whole group there was amazed by the spirit that we brought with us as missionaries. 

So, I do have the Skype address and phone numbers of the members that we will be skyping from. You can call them and get it set up so that it works smoothly on christmas day.

Number: 5099536922
Skype  username: rfholbrook

But as to your question, right now I am really enjoying working with the missionaries as the leader of the mission. We get to train them, and teach them how they can be successful in all that they do. Nothing has brought more joy, than to help a fellow missionary be converted to the gospel. What do I hope will continue? I hope that I will continue to have the same confidence that I have with my name tag on. It is so easy to bring up the gospel as a missionary, and I hope that I will be able to do the same thing as a regular member. I want to keep my knowledge of the gospel growing through studies, and I really want to implement the principles that I have learned of hard work, and continual learning. that is pretty ambiguous, but those are the idea I have so far. 

But mom hasn't emailed me yet, and I don't really have very many updates from this last week, so I will just say that this week we are going to be a lot busier with all of the meeting we will have. So, get ready for a good email, and Skype stories next week, Love you family.

So tell me how things are going for you what do you enjoy what do you hope will continue when you get home.
I know Mom is the one that updates you on everything as o I will keep it short.   We love you and are very proud of your accomplishments.

HEy family!!!!
Everything is going great up in the great white north. It warmed up a total of 5 degrees over night, so now it is 14 degrees outside!!! woohoo Dont worry, I am all bundled up with my long johns, and coats and beanie, and gloves on, so this southern boy in decently warmed lol.
This week we had a great week. We had several people come to church, and elder Chang and I gave talk on the Topic of truth. We were super bold, and basically invited everyone that wasnt a member in the congregation to be baptized, and all the members to repent. It is cool being in YSA, cause everyone is our age, so we can jst demand repect out of everyone there. And afterwards we got like three referrals of people that want to be taught, and baptized. We have two people with baptismal dates right now, one will be this sunday, and the other will be the day after christmas.
BTW, I need your skype address, and phone number so I can set things up for skyping on christmas...
I love you guys, and cant wait to hear how things are going on the great plains.
Love,
Elder Cybulski

I love the Lord, and wish you a very merry Sunday. Up here in Washington we have snow on the ground, and 10 degree weather. Stay warm, and follow the spirit!

I'm so glad you're enjoying the Christmas stuff. We had fun thinking of you and putting it together. I need some ideas of things you need or want for Christmas. I know you have new suits but you may need some other things as well. Please let me know soon :). I can't believe Christmas is right around the corner. What a wonderful, beautiful time if year. I'm grateful for all that we know if the living Christ. We are truly blessed. Have a fantastic week and write back soon!

I love you son, mom. 

The Last few days have been crazy busy. On sunday we set up tons of appointments with investigators and members that came to church. this week we have a meeting everyday, and slack to pick up from our new office secretary. It has been cool cause the appointments that we had, had to cancel. Normally I would be dissapointed, but i know that heavenly father is giving us a way to take care of the necesities for the betterment of the mission. Heavenly Father really does provide a way when we are righteous.
Opening your presents everyday has brought joy into the apartment. Now we have a christmas tree, and from the papers, new ideas to try to find people to teach. 
i love you all, and appreciate all your support
