my week was good! we are starting to put the pieces back together in this area. This week we found a couple elects! I did a contact on SATURDAY, he went to church on sunday and already is preparing to be baptized this sunday. Its a 9 day miracle! But i know that the elects are going to be ready when we share this message with them so it doesnt surprise. We are also working with a young guy named Alfredo who is so sick! He loved church on sunday and all the young men loved him and got his number and stuff. It was pretty cool. We are also working with a girl whos 18. Her 2 sisters are already members but she wasnt taught that much cause she was always working. We actually went to teach her today on our pday (cough cough consecrated missionary) and she said she really was willing to learn more about the Plan of God in her life. We are way excited for these last 2 weeks in the transfer. The transfer is on December 3rd. 

Vanusa told me that you guys talked! That was awesome. Im so happy with her progress in the church. She was baptized only about 4 months ago and she is super firm. She lovessss the missionaries especially me. I became super happy knowing that you talked with her. 

Wow christmas lights before thanksgiving?!?! thats a gurk fam first!!! Should be fun to eat at the G fam house this year! That is awesome for Josh! holy moly thats like literally a dream come true state championship. He should be super proud. 

That is awesome mom! Im so glad someone picked up interest! I will pray for sure this week that they can continue to like it. I would love to hear some good news next week! 

I think everyone can relate in saying that we have felt in that way once before. Idk I feel like that is maybe the thing I have improved at most on my mission. Like sometimes i dont even blink, I feel like i do a really good job in understanding each difficulty I have in my life. Its gotta be from sally, but i really just understand that God has a plan in my life and no matter what happens, its because God wanted it to happen in my life. I hope you can feel that as well. Who knows maybe God wanted you to pass through this experience so that you learn something new and apply it the next time you try to flip a house. I hope you soon know the purpose of why it took longer than you wanted to sell. But i will pray a ton for the house this week. 

5 weeks!!!! IM PUMPED! SHOULD BE DOPE! 

love you
elder G

Happy happy 6 months Elder G!!!  That is so exciting!  Are you going to burn a tie today?  Isn't that the tradition?? That feels pretty amazing to have 25% done.  How are you doing my love?  Are you feeling strength and comfort?  I pray for it everyday for you.  You are constantly on our minds and hearts and in our prayers.  We talk about you many times every day.  You are such an important part of our family and I miss you soooo very much.   I know you've had some very rough weeks but I pray that you are feeling stronger.  I read something this week that made me think of you.  D&C 101:36 says that "in this life your joy is not full, but in me your joy is full."  Sometimes in life we just won't feel happy.  If we are expecting to be happy 100% all of the time, we will be 100% disappointed.  Because this life is a probationary state, we will have struggles, trials and hardships.  But I love t...

Yo yo momma, so transfers will be next week. SO in my email next week i will let you guys know. I really think that ill stay here. This area definitely has its problems but i also love it here and i really wanna stay here one more transfer. Plus it will be great to settle in with Alessandra and Lucianno after their baptism as members of the church. So btw...our prayers were answered!!! We went there on Monday night and I was sweating the whole time thinking about what i would say to firm them up for baptism. I started to talk a little bit about marriage and how it was preparing them for baptism and she literally cuts me off out of nowhere and asks "So what time will the baptism be on Saturday?" I felt the spirit soooo strongly and felt like it was an answer to my prayers and it was the Lord saying "dont worry i got this one". since then they are gotten super firm. They talk about raising a family in this church, temple marriage, and even serving a couples mission!!!...

Hey buddy!    I’m glad I finally get a chance to sit down and write. Baby stuff has taken over my life but we are very excited to have Harper with us in the next few weeks. Excited for you to meet your new little cousin when you return. Sounds like you are doing really well! I know you’ve had minor struggles and home sickness along the way, but it’s good to see you pumped and positive. Sounds like you’re doing a great job!     Hey listen, I know everyone has chimed in on the girl situation and you’re probably tired of talking about it at this point, but I wanted to try to talk to you about it as well because I’ve had the unwelcome pleasure of going through 3 life changing heart breaks that I never thought I’d recover from so I can speak to you from experience and hopefully put some perspective on things.     I had been with Alicia for 5 years, we were in love but it was more than that. It was how the family loved her, how much I loved her family and ...
