Our 2nd Email

Ryan Gardner   Mar 11, 2009 10:19 AM   Hi Everyone   Hey Dad.. I have been getting your dearelder letters and laughed so hard about when you were telling me about the cat!  You fixed the leaky sink and tub... now what is the cat suppose to do all day?  he can’t catch water drops.... haha,  but anyway.  A quick run down of the week. Here at the mtc we have the opportunity to go to the referral center where we make calls and talk to real people and ask them if they have received their Bibles or BofM that they requested.   And if not we send them some.  I got to send 6 missionaries to the door and maybe have them converted... it is really cool. Idk (I don’t Know) how to explain it really, but its really good practice.   I love the district I am in.  I get along with them so well, well at least 6 of the 8... :D   And Sundays... wow. never had a more spiritual sacrament meeting than the two I have had here.  It is amazing how much of the spirit I have felt here.  I love it.  I am down to less than a week here at the MTC.. I don’t know if you got the info or not but I fly out on Tuesday the 17th out of Salt Lake at 8:30 am, so if Rick wants to try and see me I will be there from 5 to 8:30am... that would make my day. Oh and also, I get to make a phone call, idk when probably when I get to San Diego so have Celeste there.  I already told her that I wanted to talk to her along with you and mom.  Tell mom I have been getting her letters and have been loving them.  I would write back but it seems like I get a letter from home every other day :D haha.   So I would be writing home all the time and not have time to do the work.  So I’m sorry about that.  And yes... this will be my email for the next 2 years unless I decide to change it but I don’t think I will.  My companion is starting to slack off and doesn’t want to do the work as much, so that is starting to become a drag.  But only 6 more days with him! HAHAA :D   Heavenly Father does answer prayers.  Oh Tyson gets here today and I hope that I will get to see him.   I have seen elder Spicer here a couple of times.  It has been good to get to talk to him.  He bore his testimony to me in French..   Didn’t understand a lot of it but I could still feel his spirit.  Anyway I have to get my laundry done.  I will get on later and check my email later tonight around 4 or 5, so yeah if you want to send me something I will have time to read it :D.  Love you all and don’t forget that dearelder.com is only free while I am AT the MTC...  so after Saturday, don’t use it anymore.  Just email me and I can print them off. or write me... either way works. :D    Love you and hope to hear from you soon. ~Elder Gardner
