I`m glad that you guys got the letter :) I thought it was gonna be like after thanksgiving that you guys would get it but im glad that it came quickly. Im sure that was awesome for Livvy to be in that play. Im sure you did awesome Liv! Haha and you guys should take a video of Liz`s recital and then send it to me in an email! Just with a digital camera. That would be sweet. And Mom! Give Craig permission to wrestle! He`s gotta do it! Haha he is a beast! Thats unfair to the team to take him away haha. (I got your back dude :) ) haha. And i hope that you are feeling better now Mom.
Well this week was a little better than the past few. So we hadnt really been teaching very much because we dont really have anyone to teach. But at the beginning of the week we got to teach a lesson with a less active member. And it was awesome! We just shared a scripture and our thoughts about it and stuff like that. But i felt so good afterward. I had forgotten how good it feels to read the scriptures with someone and share feelings about it. It gave me a well needed boost for the rest of the week. My comp and I were both more motivated to work. So we went and really looked for the opportunity to teach and we found the opportunity a few times haha. It was really awesome. Also i dont know if i told you guys about this guy that we contacted a couple weeks ago, Carlos? Anyways we got a member to come and visit with us and we got to put a day for his baptism! December 3rd. But he wasnt able to come to church yesterday so we are gonna have to push it back a little bit but i think we can get him baptized. So we are gonna work with him a lot this week.
And yeah changes are about a week away. Next wednesday. And my first and second companions that i had are both going home haha. They call me sometimes and all they talk about is going home haha. It drives me insane because i still have such a long way to go! Haha but its ok. Im gonna be excited too when my time comes. But no we dont know who has a change. We will know this coming sunday. But this lady in our area that we visit every single day because she is awesome told us that if one of us has a change that she doesnt want us to come to say goodbye. She has had the missionaries come and visit her for more than 25 years! Crazy stuff. And she said that twice she has cried for missionaries when they left and if we come to say goodbye she said that she will cry. Man, this lady is my favorite. Its that lady in the picture that i sent last week. Sister Paiz is her name. Its crazy how fast i come to love people here. When i left my last area it was super hard because i love all those people. And when i leave here its gonna be the same. This area that im in right now is super hard but the awesome people here make it worth it to be here. Saying goodbye to them is almost like saying goodbye to you guys when i left! Its pretty rough. But im gonna keep in contact with them so its all good :)
Well i hope that you guys have a great week. Oh and ill let you know about things that i may need in a Christmas package. I love you guys so much and ill talk to you guys soon!
Love, Elder Gunnell
