Well, here you have it, some more pictures of Uruguay and me!!
Our house, only two of us live in it, and it's made out of cement blocks and tile! It gets dang cold at night! It is winter here just in case you forgot.
This is my bed, just a nice little twin bed, what I'm use to. The mattress is just a big foam pad! I still get my rest at night!
This is my study desk, and it may look like I staged it all.... and.... I did! haha!
Me and my companion, Elder Wilson, after a long day of tracking in the rain and mud.... haha! It was pretty great!!!
Today we went on a little adventure with the young men's group, it was so much fun. We just got back... and ouch... I am so sore from chasing that soccer ball all over the place. It was really fun!!! It may not look like it but I have lost a lot of weight. I was just wearing a lot of layers this morning! I am the last one in the front row.
These last few pictures are of the lake where we went with the YM to play soccer. This is of me and Elder Wilson. Don't we look like we have played soccer all our lives. Ha ha!
Questions and respuestas (answers).
Mom: Did you get your package this week?
Elder Gomm: I have not gotten a package yet, maybe tomorrow, that is when all the mail comes in!
Mom: So tell us about the young girl getting baptised this week. How old is she?
Elder Gomm: She is 9 years old.
Mom: What does she like to do?
Elder Gomm: I really don't know, i guess laugh at me speaking ingles (English), while teaching it to her. haha!
Mom: Do they have public schools there for these kids and is it set up like it is here in the states?
Elder Gomm: The kids here get school free, from kindergarten to college, all of their education.
Wow! Wow! Wow! What a week.. haha! Well, this week has been pretty good. We just got back from a trip in the campo (field) to this big lake! It was bien de bien (well), I really had a lot of fun!
It sounds like you all are having fun back at home! No worries we`ll have to make up for it when I get home.
Its amazing how much the things of God are real! I just laugh every time! People just don't get it! We aren't just here to live and die, we are here to find God through faith. That is why the veil is placed. That is why faith without action is dead. It is why Christ hung on the cross for us. Some just don't get it! There is so much more to learn! All we have to do is search, ponder and pray with sincerity! God is there, we will live once again and you know all we have to do is try our best to live the things that we are commanded to!
I love you all, so very much!
Elder Timothy V. Gomm
