Well, it has only been a few days since i sent my last
email, but we had a good weekend here in Sac.
We had another set of missionaries move into our apartment.
That sound be fun.
The baptism of Laura went really well. I love seeing the big
ol' smile on the face of someone in the font.
I had an interesting experience while i was fasting on
Sunday. On Saturday night i was staring out the window thinking about my
mission as a whole. I realized that i have almost been out for a year and a
half and dont have much longer. And it scared me. I felt like i havent done
enough yet as a missionary, and i didnt like that feeling at all. I decided to
fast on Sunday for some kind of feeling that my work has been pleasing in God's
eyes. i wasn't expecting anything big but i really wanted something. Sacrament
meeting was about to start and i had a little 6 year old kid come up and hand
me a little card. I looked at his mom to see what it was and all she said was
that it was all his idea and she had nothing to do with it. I sat down and
opened it to read it during the opening song. It said, "Thanks for
teaching in Chalofornya (pretty sure it was supposed to be California) and
serving, love Gavin" I teared up a little as i realized that God answered
my fast by prompting a little primary kid to write a note and give it to me
that specific day. Then i had two other people thank me directly for serving. I
promise you that God is aware of every single one of his children.
We are working with a 16 year old girl named Sarah. Her
stepdad was just baptized a few months ago and is the coolest guy ever. Her
sister got baptized last year, her mom is already a member, and she needs to be
a member. We would appreciate prayers for her heart to be softened. thanks :)
That is all i have for now. Hope you all have a great week.
