December 6, 2011


Hey!

So I'm here in Los Banos with Elder Luna now. It's pretty much all English, which I was disappointed in. And it really is in the middle of nowhere. I'm about an hour away from any actual towns. It's basically a stopping point for travelers coming from the Bay Area. And yes, Los Banos means the bathrooms in Spanish. And yes, it does smell like bathrooms occasionally.

Elder Luna is pretty cool. He's from Tijuana, Mexico. He was supposed to go home at the end of this transfer (Jan. 19) but he got extended till February.

We have some pretty good investigators right now that we're teaching. We actually have a baptism for a lady named Norma this Sunday, which I’m pretty excited about. She came to church and looked way excited about baptism. There are about 50 people who attend church each week. And about 10 people who actually come on time at the beginning of sacrament meeting. So it's pretty small.

We are also teaching a lady named Christine and her two kids. She is really progressing right now and hopefully we will be able to commit her to baptism this next time we see her.

I guess right now, I’m trying to find out the reason I have been called here by President Gelwix. I know he was inspired to move me here, I just need to find out what that reason is.

Do you know what area Elder Frost is in? Maybe he's being trained by Elder Rodriguez? I know he's training right now. That would be sweet. (Elder Frost is in Selma, CA serving with Elder Cruz)

The libraries are closed on Mondays, so I will be emailing on Tuesdays here.

Have a great week!

Love,

Elder Gygi
