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

I will go to Jardim Simos and be with an elder I dont know. I will be the senior companion which is really cool. Hes a brazilian, just finished his traning, and has about only 3 months on the mission. Im so glad and relieved. i was just ready to leave aguiar. he is just a difficult person sometimes.  love you mom.  yeah that sounds really difficult and probably something that would be really hard to do at the mission office haha. ok thank you for looking it up.  I love you so freaking much mom!

Good morning my sweet boy! How was your week? I’m hoping there were some baptisms and the people followed through on their commitments:) Did you love conference? One of my favorite things about it was how I knew we were sitting there doing the exact same thing at the same time! That was comforting to me. I absolutely loved it! If you didn’t get a chance to watch the women’s broadcast you should try. I will send you an Ensign conference edition when it gets here so you can read all the talks again and study them. I feel like I received many personal messages from the talks. So many of them focused on our ability to stay faithful and receive comfort during trials... not one minute of our suffering is wasted. It is all for our good and our growth. That was one of the messages that I took away and feel strengthened by.  I also felt a recommitment to strengthening my conversion. That also seemed to be a theme of conference. Are we living the gospel by going through the motions and check...

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 ...
