Hey family,
Everything is great here in the Bow Valley ward. This is now my 4th
transfer here in the ward and it's great because the ward is so great. Ever since
we've baptised Chee Wee the ward has trusted us more with their friends which
is good because now there's more unity between us. This past Sunday our ward
mission leader told us he had to meet with the bishop so he put us in charge of
gospel principles like 1 min before class started and it was on the Sabbath day
and it went really well. The ward mission leader and a bunch of other people
came up to us and told us that it was a really great lesson and were suprised we
hadn't prepared for it. It was a lot of fun. My companion told me he'd probably
not do too well in teaching the doctrine so I just had him bear his testimony at
certain parts while I taught the whole lesson. I never thought I was that good
of a teacher though. It was funny, because I've been so nit picky about the way I
teach and to have all that at the end of a lesson felt good.
Oh and my new companion is Elder Averett. He's from Arizona and has been out
for 3 months. His first area was Cranston in South Calgary. It was cool because his
first name is Sturling and it reminded me of a small town near Lethbridge called
the same name and made me miss the south a little bit, but I love it here in
Calgary. The work is a lot of fun. Anyway, I gave Elder Renshaw a big huge before he
left and he told me how much he's going to miss this mission. I remember as he
was packing, he wept a bit about how it was all over. It was a sad day. We did
get a whole bunch of pics together before he left though. I'll send them to you.
Oh and I'm not sure when Chee Wee is going to the temple, but he'll let me know.
We also got another call from Jorgina telling us that she wants to take
the lessons again. So we'll be meeting
with her again which is nice because we lost contact with her for a while.
Well that's about all for this week!
Love you guys!
Elder Justin Gagnon
