Dear Family and Friends,
Wow what a crazy week!!!!!! I am now in my second area!!!!!!!
It is a country town with a town square and lots of
churches! It is a lot different than my last area, but I love it!!!!
It is a town a lot like Placerville and about that size. There are
two sets of missionaries in this area. This
is really fun! One is Samoan and he and I are best buds. He came out from the MTC with me and he is now training a new
missionary. The new missionary saw me at
the gym in Rexburg , Idaho where he was a gymnast and I was
always there at the rock climbing wall.
My new companion is pretty cool. We don’t have anything in common but we get
along great. Interesting how that works.
The work is really slow here at the moment and hopefully my
new blood will help out.
Baptism Day for Vincent |
The baptism last Saturday was amazing!!! I was able to baptize Vincent in my last area
before I moved. He and I stayed in the font for a few moments and we had one of
the most spiritual experiences ever. He
said that he felt like things were just dripping off him and that he wanted to
stay under water forever. I watched as that wonderful saving ordinance,
preformed by the priesthood took hold of him.
And then he started to tremble and I watched the joy fill his soul. When
I felt the power and virtue as Christ talked about come out of me, it was a
witness to me that I am a worthy conduit of the priesthood and the Spirit.
It was quite amazing.
Please read the Christmas story with your families. Remember the greatest gift that God gave us,
His son.
Merry Christmas!!!!!
Love,
Elder Gomm
