"Therefore, O ye that embark in the service of God, see that ye serve him with all your heart, might, mind and strength, that ye may stand blameless before God at the last day."
- Doctrine and Covenants 4:2

Wow... I'm already here again. This week, we had so much happen so fast that I feel like I was just here the day before last writing home to you. I cant believe it!

This week's miracles:
1. More people with a date working towards baptism!
2. A less-active returns to church after years of not wanting to go to church!
3. Recent converts armed with power!

The elders in Elder Gale's area moved to their own area, so now Elder Gale and his companion live alone.

We have really been working with those who have a date to be baptized, helping them reach their goal of becoming clean from sin by repenting and coming unto Christ through baptism for the remission of sins so that they might gain the gift of the Holy Spirit to be their constant companion in this life and guide them and help them have the peace they need!

A Catholic cathedral Elder Gale visited thus week.

We had a miracle happen this week! Well, we always have miracles happen, but another one specifically... this less-active member and his family haven't come to church for a very long time because they don't feel comfortable there anymore. As they were about to leave very quickly after the services, my companion and I went speedily to them to greet them and tell them how grateful we were to see them. He was obviously not too convinced because we are the missionaries, and people get the idea that we are "supposed to say that," but the miracle was that a whole bunch of members came and started to share with them how glad they were to see them there in the chapel. It was great to see the ward come and show such great love!


This week we were able to visit our recent converts. Each one of them has grown significantly in their testimonies and their willingness to follow Christ and progress in the gospel. We had a convert who was sharing the gospel at her work in the metro system. She gave us a reference for other missionaries. Our other convert was so overjoyed about receiving the priesthood. He told us how grateful he was to receive it! And our other convert was helping her sisters to learn about the gospel so that they will also get baptized. Such amazing progress with all of them! Definitely an amazing week!

An amazing statue of Michael the Archangel defeating Satan!

I hope you all have an amazing week! I love you all, and have a very happy Mother's Day to all you mothers! Especially mine!! I love you all!

Elder Gale
