Jaunary 8-14

It is Elder Gordon's birthday on January 17th, I am sure he would love a card, an email, or anything you would like to send him. His address is listed on the side of the blog.






ok so the week went by quit quick, once we left the library, we went and worked out and then had lunch at the apt, it was a real good morning, and a good way to start off the day! We then went to the church to hang out with the other missionaries, we played B-ball, it was fun, me and this other missionary were wrestling until I got hit in the head really hard by his knee, and that ended p-day for me! Wednesday.. we had Ex's with New Iberia elders so they came up we went to diner then went out to work, and that was a fun night, went to go see one of out investigators and she was having a hard time, I could tell because she had just got done crying right when we knocked on her door!  We had a way good talk with her, gave her a scripture (2 Nephi 4:20) and then a Spiritual thought along with it. We then went tracting and found quit a few people willing to talk to us which was a blast, we met a guy named Abraham and he's from Israel, and it was way cool to talk to him! Tuesday we got up and  worked out , studied, then we went the elder's home, I the crashed and took a way long nap, Once I got up we biked into the area to go see the people we met the day before, then biked home, but holy cow it was cold out that night for sure, we got home and there was a bomb member that ordered us pizza, it was fun. 
Friday we had District meeting, then we had interviews with President Varner, and I think the whole interview was about how I should not grow facial hair once I come home, it was funny, but I had a really good interview with him, he's such a good guy! We then went to go see this member that is working on coming back to church and it was good to see her and help her and see how she was doing! Saturday, was like normal we went to lunch at the Fernandez's and we had fun playing ping pong and cards, then we went to go try to see people and then ended the day by tracting a complex here in Alexandria.  Sunday we went to church at 8 and we left at 3:30 ish it was a long time at church but it was for sure fun we went to 2 sacrament meetings 1 baptism and 1 choir practice!!! we came home to study then we had dinner with the Boswells then bed!!! but overall the week was killer, 
Ok so in our mission we had started to read the Book or Mormon on the first of January and we are going to read it in 90 day so ya, it going to be fun,  a little hard for me I am going to do it twice before I go home, I am exited for sure! But while we read it we are highlighting the Gospel of Jesus Christ lesson which is Jesus Christ, Faith, Repentance, Baptism, Holy Ghost, and Enduring to the end and it has been real fun seeing how many times Jesus is in the Book of Mormon, anyway I would encourage all to read it!! love you a'll so much have a good week! 

Love,
Elder Gordon
