Love to get our emails on Monday mornings. Spencer continues to work very hard. There is a saying that the proof is in the pudding. Well in this instance the proof is in his extremely worn out shoes. Also we finally received the long anticipated picture of Spencer with Elder Bednar. Pictures are always a bonus. Love all the wonderful experiences this missionary of ours is having! Enjoy!
Dear Family & Friends,
Last week, we had many adventures! We ran a great training meeting with the Watsons for three days at the mission home! I cant wait for you to see the mission home here. Its quite insane! Its about as big as our house which is a mansion here in Finland! Its been said that if we had an emergency we caould have the entire mission there. Also its the biggest mission home in the Europe area!
A real Christmas tree was set up at the mission home and I got put in charge of putting the lights on it! My hands were really sore but I remembered all the days right after thanksgiving when Tamye was over and we put up our tree. However I will never have a real christmas tree in my house! Such a nightmare!
We have been busy teaching and baptizing this week. Just the normal stuff!
Tongith we leave for Oulu to do exchanges there. Our flight leaves at 9pm! Including my flight home I will have flown 30 times while on my mission! Not many people fly that much in 2 years let alone while on a mission!
Then we go to Jyväskylä for exchanges on thursday. Then we have our ward christmas party on friday! All the misisonaries in Espoo will be performing the cup rhythm from Pitch Perfect to the song Oh come all ye faithful! Its pretty sweet and should be all over youtube under #sharethegift!
We dont have any plans for Christmas day yet. We should be making some soon here.
I have been looking for a Nativity set. I have no way of figuring out where to get one though. Can you do a search and see if there is a place that sells them here in Espoo? dont try too hard but just see what a google search yields!
Wow, I love being a missionary! Oh DAD!!!! Not to get truncky on you but as soon as I get home you need to teach me everything there is to know about excel! I tried making a new Key indicator analysis workbook this week and I was useless! I had forgotten almost everything and was just thinking the whole time how you would have this done in 5 seconds! I was really frustrated that I had forgotten so much! Anyway!
Love you!
Elder Spencer Tippetts
Finland Helsinki MissionThese are some slippers an investigator made for me and these are my shoes. They arent so good for the rain!
This was when Elder Bednar visited his mission and he got to have some amazing one on one with this wonderful man. It was an experience of a lifetime for sure!
