This week we have been able to see so many miracles thanks to the Lord and his bounteous love towards his faithful servants. I love being a missionary there is nothing like it!
So I have some exciting news! On Friday we received a new companion and inherited his area as well. Elder Casperson from Twin Falls, ID. He is a spanish missionary and his companion had to return home so he is now with us for a while. So we will be teaching the investigators we have and finding more people in both of our areas since the spanish areas are stakes. I will be learning a little bit of spanish as well.
Last week we prayed to know where the Lord needs us and we felt like going to Wal Mart parking lot. When we got there we said a prayer to be lead to the ones prepared. When we got done saying the prayer I looked to my left and there was a guy in his car staring right at me. I got a little creeped out I'm not going to lie but we got out and talked with him. He is a less active who is wanting to return. He has been going through struggles and wanted the Lords help. He looks like a rough guy tatted up and has tattoos of devil horns on his head. We have been going over the lessons with him again and has come to church. Its a humbling experience seeing the change he has.
Also this week we were in the same Wal Mart parking lot readjusting our schedule and out of nowhere a car pulled up and a lady asked if we were Mormons. We said yes and she explained to us how the elders used to go by her house before she moved here and she loved going to church. She was never baptized. We taught her the next day and set her baptism date. That was the most amazing thing ever!
I love this time of season especially since I don't have to freeze in Utah. I love learning more and more each day about the Restored Gospel. It brings me so much joy knowing that God has a plan for me. I love sharing that plan with everyone.
Love you all
Elder Gardner
