Hey!
Well we know the changes.... and.... I..... dont have a change haha. Just my companion. So im kinda excited about that hahaha im just nervous about who will be my comp. Ive only had one that i still talk to and am cool with haha. But he goes home on wednesday :( haha. But yeah the video wasnt attatched :( She sent an email saying that she thought it sent but it didnt. But im sure she did awesome! I wish i could see it. She will just have to show me when i get home! Haha and thats cool about Craig and his buddies doing a musical number! I wish i had the opportunity to do more before i left. But its all good. Whats up with Livvy? Whats up Sis? Haha and im so glad that Grandma got my letter. I felt so horrible that i forgot to stop by her house before i left. I remembered on the plane... Ha It sucked.
But this week was pretty good! We found another Carlos! Haha i dont think the old one is gonna get baptized but the new one is like 32 years old and he is pretty awesome. I guess the elders before had a baptism date with him but then he left town for a while because his Mom was sick and then she died about a month ago. So we taught him the plan of salvation and testified that he could see his Mom again. Also he has been to church 3 or 4 times so we asked him how he felt about it. He told us that when he was in our church he felt peace and happiness. Like its apart from the rest of the world. And he liked it a lot. So we asked him to be baptized and he said yes! Woo! So we are excited about him. It might be this week but we dont know yet. If he is home we are gonna visit him everyday this week. Also we had stake conference here yesterday! The broadcast was awesome! We heard from Elder Clarke from the seventy, Sister Cook, Elder Holland, and President Uchtorf. It was so awesome. Elder Holland was hilarious. He started speaking spanish and it was horrible! So he made some jokes about it and then started in english and then the translation started haha. But then to end he bore his testimony in spanish. I would imagine that it was hard for everyone to understand with his crazy gringo accent but it was so powerful. Also president Uchtdorf! His talk was so good! He didnt try to speak spanish at all haha. But it was so great to hear their talks.
Well i hope that you guys have a great Thanksgiving. Ill be thinking about you guys Im not sure if ill get to do anything or not but we will see. I hope you guys enjoy it. Tell everyone i say that i love and miss them! Have a great week! Love you guys!
Love, Elder Gunnell
