We were able to skype with Stephen over Christmas. It was so amazing and awesome to see his face. He is doing so well.. He was supposed to call at 10 am but his companion was sick so he spent 6 hours of Christmas in the Insta Care with his companion. His companion had a bad flu but was fine. So we didnt get to talk to him untill 3pm.
He has loved serving in the Escondido area . The members are so amazing to them there. They are watched over and protected. Stephen is still a cheep skate.. He is the only missionary who has money left at the end of the month. He survives on hot pockets and oatmeal. The members feed them dinner every night.
The whole time we were talking the families house he was out came out and kept asking him if he needed a drink of water (it was 80 degrees on Christmas) or if he was having problems with skype.
We had a great visit and could of kept talking forever. We visited with him for 2 hours and still had plenty of things to talk about and say.
It was the best part of our Christmas.
