Elder Ultra...'surprise!!..loves his mission! What a shock!

One of my favorite parts of the Christmas Season is receiving Christmas cards in the mail.  Well, although the rush is over we just received a nice card from Elder Ultra (along with a Christmas Picture) today.  How fun to hear how he is doing.  Here's just a little exerpt from his letter:

"Well, I'm not going to lie.  I love my mission!! I love being a missionary and I love the tough things about it.  Missions truly are a marfvelous work and a wonder.  Though I only have about three months left, I promised Heavenly Father that I would leave everything and expend all my energy out here.  I want to do so many things that I am commissioned here to do.  But, I have very limited time.  I am so tired every day and I just love every minute of it.  Thank you again for all you do.  Thanks for the support and the letters y'all send.  Surrey is represented well here in South Carolina.  We talk to alot of people all the time and every time we get to teach I always bear testimony of the things that I learned when I was back in 'Surrey'.  Y'all truly have been a great inspiration."

Oh, Elder Ultra.  You have truly caught the spirit of missionary work haven't you?  I think you and Sister Sloan will have a lot in common when she's finished her stay in Tennessee in May.
Hoorah for Zion!!!
