As for this past week it was an average week. Farony came to church again and he had a good time again. His fellowshipper Keiran was sick so he was a little bored but he knows some other priests from school. The Assistants to the President serve in the YSA ward that meets at 1pm. They had a baptism at Noon right after our church got out so we had Farony come to it and he thought it was strange because he is used to a Catholic baptism. Well the catholic baptism was false and this one is the correct baptism so that's why it looks different.
We have also been teaching another lady named Sherice who has been trying to look for a church to go to. We have met with her a couple times and every time she just wants to get a better understanding of the Book of Mormon which is awesome. She just recently had a baby so it kept her up all night on Saturday otherwise she would have come to church. She is really humble and willing to learn. A lot of people have been looking for something during the week that the church does and there isnt really anything other than Mutual. We are going to be starting up a bible study and inviting as many people as we can to it. That will iliminate the concern of "Mormons dont read the bible they have their own." I will keep you posted on how that goes.
My Birthday is tomorrow and I dont feel like im 21 I still feel like im 18. I am excited though. Also I will be hitting my Year mark on Thursday!!!! I cant even put into words how the mission has changed my life. I love it. I love talking to people about the Gospel and I love He who created it. I know that my knowledge is small still but I know that Jesus is the Christ. He suffered for us so He can lift us up. I know that Joseph Smith isnt blasphemous but that he did what he said he did and saw what he said he saw. I am excited to hit my year mark but more excited to see what God has in store for me this last year of my mission.
I love you all!!! Have a good week! I know I will!!!
Elder Gardner
