Hey everyone!
I leave this week! I got a temporary reassignment to the Philadelpia, Pennsylvania mission! I'm kind of stoked that I get to have two missions! I leave Tuesday at 3 AM so you don't have to worry about sending me mail in the MTC anymore, because I won't get it. I'll try to let you all know the address for Philly, but I honestly don't know how long I will be there because I will be leaving as soon as I get my visa.
Christmas was great! We had Elder Nelson come and speak to us. The spirit of Christmas was so great here, it was so much easier to focus on the real reason that we celebrate Christmas. I was incredibly grateful for the opportunity to be here during this great holiday.
We also had an amazing talent show. Imagine 6 russian elders all singing a song that they made to Lady Gaga's "bad romance" but titled and themed "I missionary now." They even did the entire music video dance and all that. It was SO funny! We also had a great Christmas dinner in which we were able to get together as the elders of the zone and share our favorite tradition and a testimony. It was probably one of my favorite parts of the day.
It really is crazy how fast the time has flown. I can't believe that it has already been about six weeks since I left. It feels just like yesterday. Thank you all for your support.
Love,
Elder Siebert
let us know the address when you get it, I owe him a letter.
