My beloved brethren, both by blood and in the Lord,

I am busy arranging my CHRISTMAS CALL so don't have a lot of time for you.  So I'll just bear my testimony.  I know that my Redeemer lives.  He was born in humble circumstances but will return in glory.  Because of Him we can be forgiven of our sins, we can repent and become new again.  Our Heavenly Father loves us, and we will be able to live as families forever in the kingdom of God.  I know these things to be true for myself.  I love you all and I will see you in a year.

I can't wait to talk to my family!
