O.k., first thing tell Grandma to have a Happy Birthday. I know it's late and I hope you have a Happy Birthday this week too, Mom. This week was good. We made a lot of progress on Jessenia ,and we actually found Angelica in the park. You could tell she was trying to dodge us and the is the thing. It's one thing to lose a baptism, but they don't know how much that hurts when you put in all the time teaching them and then they do that to you. We have Jessenia's baptism on Wednesday, but it's also the day of transfers, so it will be an interesting day. I think my comp and I will be together one more time, but you never know. I am way excited for Jessenia. She is a way cool person and she really wants this baptism. She has learned the hard way that the the church is true. We gave her a blessing yesterday because she was having a rough time. It's so interesting how she was before the lesson and how she was after. It just shows you how the spirit works so that she can feel calm and all that good stuff. We found some new investigators too. We were teaching in the park and a Catholic guy came to argue with us, but our investigator didn't listen to him and made the guy look stupid and made our church look that much more true.
This change has flown by. I like Con Con a lot. The time has just flown by like it never has in my mission. There was an exchange with the other elders. I was talking to another elder and he was big into hunting, so that was fun to talk to him during lunch became no one hunts down here.
I had to give a talk at the other elders' baptism and now I have to give another talk at the baptism of Jessenia, but it's all good. Hopefully Utah can have the upset this week. Have a good week. Hope your birthday wish comes true!
Love,
Elder Gillies
