Merry Christmas

Baptism of Hope Mushala.  Pres. Mushala is in our Stake Presidency.  The youngest one cried because she couldn't get baptized too.

Painting a board to make a chalkboard for one of the schools to see if it would really work.  The school will paint the rest of them and frame them.  

Had a fun Christmas!  But the best part was watching all the Grand-kid's excitement on Christmas morning as they discovered what Santa brought and opened presents.

The excitement of Christmas morning in the mission field. 

Our Christmas decorations and presents.  

Had a great Mission Christmas Social with the 2 Lusaka Zones.  Ate first then played a lot of games.  A fun game was dividing into 6 groups then as Sister Kupu pointed to each group, they had to start singing a Christmas song without repeating any that had been sung.  Groups were eliminated if they couldn't start singing one quickly.  It was hilarious to watch.  

The Elders really piled it high and most went back for seconds.  Had ham, chicken, rice, potato salad, taro, green salad, coleslaw, rolls.  Yummy!  

For one of the games, they were divided into 6 groups and each group had to pick a Christmas related name for their group.  They they were told they had to create a mascot using anything they could find in the room.  The group on the right were the Noels and you can probably guess the group on the left's name.  Very fun activity.
