This past week we were super busy! We honestly didnt even really have alot of time to work in our area this past week. However alot of great work was done. We started the week off with having exchanges with the assistants to president. I was with Elder Peirce and it was awesome! A quick story. We were ending the day walking back to the house and we were super hungry. We didnt have any money with us so we were unable to go and buy food. As we were walking through a super nice colony, an older lady screamed at us saying, "You guys want pazole?" Pazole is a super good dish that they make here in Mexico. Since we were starving, we gladly accepted! We entered in and it was just staright old people celebrating the indepence of Mexico. Just a little awkward!!😂 However, we sat down at the table with them and talked about who we are and what we do, oh and we enjoyed our pazole😂. After we got full we thanked them for their kindness and we were off! Man, Elder Pierce and I had a good laugh at that one (Check the attatched pictures). I did learn that God really does answer prayers. 😂
Okay now for the more spiritual side of the week. Marco got the Aaronic Priestood and his recommendation to the temple! Elder Walgren and I are going to go to the temple this Saturday with him to do baptisms. He is doing great! This week we also found a wonderful new family to teach. It is a mother and her 3 daughters and all of them have alot of potential to progress! Elder Walgren and I were super happy to see that even though we had little time in our area, we were able to find alot of great people. To top the week off, Elder Gillen and Miniel had a baptism. It was Elder Miniels first baptism in the mission so we went over to support them. It was a very special moment for thier convert Guadalupe and for Elder Miniel. I love seeing the fruits of this wonderful work. It was a great week and it has been raining like crazy! Have a great week.
Love, Elder Gibson
P.S Good luck finding me in the picture with Elder Bednar
