This week was great for us here!! I have been learning more and more espanol too! I am starting to understand what people are saying more and more. I can now say a prayer in spanish (a simple one that a greengo would say) and also recite the first vision in spanish too!! How about that?!
We had stake conference this past weekend and it was alright not the best stake conference I've been to. We met a guy at a bus stop and talked with him a little bit about the church, we got his phone number but thought it would be the last time that we would see him but we called and he was fine with us coming over. We shared the restoration with him and he was suuuuper solid! He was asking the best questions and is really interested. He came to the Adult session of stake conference and also the Sunday session. He was a little confused at the Mormon Language. The stake president talked about the temple and mentioned the Celestial Room and Sealing and he of course had questions about that but he was super accepting. He has just been like a sponge with everything that we have taught. We are really excited about him. His name is Gordon so keep him in your prayers.
We have been really busy with appointments lately we have been teaching so many people! We have for sure been seeing the fruits of our labors and are being immensely blessed. I love this time of season to reflect on the real meaning of Christmas. I have really been growing spiritually lately and have strengthened my testimony and conversion.
Tomorrow we have the mission Christmas party!!! We will be going on the beach and spending the day together as a mission just having fun. This is probably going to be my last Christmas on the beach… As much as I love the beach and the hot weather It really doesn't feel like Christmas without snow. Regardless of where you are its the same meaning of Christmas. The best Gift that was ever given. Our Savior.
With Love
Elder Gardner
