This past was interesting. Shocker of the
world: Layton and Salt Lake are about as different as two places can possible
be in the same state. In Layton, the area was like Johns Creek (middle class
America). But here it is so different and I love it. The diversity is
incredible. During a ward Christmas party this past week I met dozens of
people from around the world. And many of the people in these wards
struggle financially but are so happy. The Bishop had arranged with another
ward to donate hundreds of coats and when the ward saw them, they were
overjoyed.
Most of our days are filled with visiting people
and sharing a Christmas message with them about Christ and His birth. One
of my favorite parts of the message is this video: http://www.mormonchannel.org/bible-videos?v=2893093383001
One of the highlights from this past week:
meeting a hispanic guy named Bob Diaz. He was such a happy person and I
loved him, but it just cracked me up that his name was Bob Diaz.
Love ya'll,
-Elder Colton
