Dear Family,
Hey! How are you?? I am doing amazing thanks for asking. Sorry if this isn't the most detailed letter..I should probably write this letter earlier cause I seem to always be running out of time and my comps are all probably sick of waiting on me-I guess that is one thing I have yet to learn on my mission; how to do things a little quicker. Haha, I've still got time;)
This past week was super good-
This week we had 4 baptisms. Rit, Canight, Cania, and Ciamin. Two were for the niece and nephew of Elder Sok's mom. One was for a neighbor of the Branch President's father who I believe is in the member of the District Presidency. Their parents are not members but still all came to watch the baptism of their children and we will pray and strive to teach them as well.
We also had a man named Ciamin be baptized by his son and is now the final member in his family to become a member. He was so ready for it and was so happy to be baptized! It was amazing. We met him last night and he told us he just felt very excited and happy! Future Melchizedek Priesthood holder! And future sealed family! Amazing stuff happening here in Thakmao. I really feel so so blessed to be a part of it. What an absolute privilege it is to be involved in this the Lord's work. I don't want to waste a single day!
We also had a referral out in Baakuu of a family of 11- they have strong faith in Christ and are so full of faith and interested in hearing our special message! The only problem is the transportation for church..they don't really have a way but we will exercise faith and trust the Lord to help them find a way.
I really love it here President and we are seeing so many miracles! Elder Sem is an amazing missionary and I feel very blessed to be his companion. Thanks for everything, again sorry this email isn't the greatest-I had great intentions but we are running late to go eat with the other Elders. Thanks for all that you do, it really means a lot. I really love this work and I love being a missionary! And of course I really love you all so much as well! Have a stellar week:)
Love,
Elder Garlick
