Week 50: No letter due to Christmas but Our Family got to SKYPE with him!!!

This was the week of Christmas and although we did not get a letter we did get to SKYPE with Elder Rash for 3.5 hrs. It was great to see him and talk to him. He is doing great. You can really tell that he has separated himself from worldly cares and is focused on missionary work. We also learned that his mission president had all of the missionaries who had come out in early to mid January go home right before Christmas so that they could spend Christmas with their families and be able to start college in January. If that holds true next year, Elder Rash will be home for Christmas and only miss 1 Christmas while serving his mission.
