Letter from Elder Gomm 2/20/2011

Dear Family, and Friends,
Oh I know i haven't explained alot of things about the CCM, and I'm sorry about that! Its just been so crazy! Our life basically is all on temple grounds here. We´re not able to go to the temple because they are doing reconstruction on it! But we are going out every Saturday to go proselyting in the streets of Buenos Aires. This world of mine is changing so rapidly. My views on different things are changing. I love the people here, though there are some questionable things that I could do without, but I respect who they are. My Spanish its getting really good, and my remembering words in English is getting worse! I thought i had a problem when English was all that i spoke! My ccm president is so awesome! and his wife tambien! They are the best couple ever, I just hope I can grow up like him and have a wife someday like her. Its funny, you know how marriage should be the last thing on our mind... well, here at the CCM marriage is spoken about at least every reunión. Its mostly hermana George, the ccm presidents wife, who speaks alot about it.  I am grateful for that, because now I know what to do to be a great husband and father. wow! Well, I'm going to have to do my best here at the missión. There is a saying here "the harder you work the hotter your wife will be!" haha! i just want to let you know even though I will work my hardest, I will follow the promptings of the spirit! But first my missión! We have been embraced by the culture, yeah there are some that scream and say go home, but then there are others that say come in and welcome to Buenos Aires. It's amazing how the Lord works in mysterious ways. It feels like I just got here and now I'm ready to serve Uruguay! Blessed be the name of My God!
 
Love, Elder Gomm
