Another week that seemed to take forever, but passed SO quickly! You know
how it is out here. days pass like weeks, but weeks pass like days. We are
making a lot of contacts. We are talking with a lot of people and we are finally
starting to get a teaching pool. The last transfer we did 3 work overs with zone
leaders and we had to help president with 2 conferences plus the transfer =
almost no time in our area. But it's all good. The Lord is preparing people to
hear us. We are teaching more and we are happy. I cannot tell you guys how great
it is to be companions with Élder Alison again. We get along really well and we
have a lot of ideas to improve just about everything.
Today for pday lunch i made french toast and maple syrup. for a second i
thought i was seated at the island... it was crazy. But hey, i am sending you
guys an envelope with a letter for the 2 gpas. i didn't know the addresses and
it's cheaper if i send them this way... this week elder alison's grandma passed
away. We got the call at about 9 in the morning. President let him call his
family and talk with his mom and dad. His parents aren't members and i listened
as he pleaded with his mom to let the missionaries visit her and teach about the
plan of salvation.
I don't think we understand the importance of the gospel until the people
that we love the most don't have or don't want it... it was sad, but my comp is
a champ. he worked hard and didn't let his mind wander.
Miracles are happening in our mission and in our area. we are really
pumped. I loved seeing twinkies again and the slip and slide hahaha! I love my
family. You guys are the best!
Amo muito vocês,
-Élder Grondel jr.
