This past week we had our ups and downs! We had 2 baptisms planned for this Saturday but we arent going to able to have them. Jessica and Nataly had to leave Monterrey to go to Dallas to fix some problems. She commented to us that she didnt know how long she was going to be out of town. We were super discouraged because they were one week away from entering into the waters of baptism. However, with her situation she had to leave immediately. The good part is that she is going to get in contact with the missionaries over there in Dallas.
Despite the sad news about Jessica and Nataly, we were able to see the Lords hand in the work here in our area this past week. She showed up to church and noticed an unfamiliar man with a woman and her kids that we do know. We were just thinking that he was a a less acive member who hasnt been to church in a while. However, at the end of the services, he came up to us and presented himself to us. We figured out that he wasnt a member of the church and was visiting the church for his very first time with his family. Of course Elder Valencia and I got super excited and we got to know him alittle bit more. At the end of the conversation, he asked if we could pass by Saturday to teach him about the gospel! What a testimony that God always blesses us a different way than we think sometimes.
Yesterday, we had my very last zone conference and I was able to give my final testimony. I am amazed at how much my testimony has grown over these 2 years. I am so thankful for each and every person that I have met over these 2 years. Most importantly, I am so thankful for all of the sweet memories I have been able to have over these past 2 years.
Today we were able to go to a place called Las Grutas de Garcia or in english, Garcia´s caverns. It was an amazing experience! I will make sure to add pictures. I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving because here it doesnt exist! I hope you all are getting in the christmas spirit! Have a great week.
Love, Elder Gibson
