There were four families from Paksitan here (14 in all) to be sealed in the Manila Temple. We took this family's picture for the blog. They are lovely people and spoke English so well. I asked how the church is in Pakistan and they said it was growing. I asked how Christmas was there....is it different? She said, "No it is the same. We have Christmas Parties and gifts and food." It is wonderful to see how the Gospel spreads throughout the world the "same". They just loved being here at the Manila Temple.
I am obviously very interested in members of the Church from Pakistan since I lived there for a year (so many years ago). We were literally chastised for doing any proselyting back in those days, so it's interesting how the Pakistani members come in contact with the Church and where, in country, they are the strongest...
ReplyDeleteThanks for the card and we're praying for your success each day...
Merry Christmas from (very) snowy Salt Lake.
