Christian in Africa

From: Mom To: Christian.garcia@missionary.org Date: Friday, September 16, 2022 Subject: Mid September How in the heck is it already the middle of September? It blows my mind. I swear I was just anticipating opening up the pool and now here I am facing the challenge of deciding when we should close it for the year. How are you? How was your week this week? Were you able to make some adjustments on how the members are working with you and have you seen any blessings in regards to the ami's you are working with because of those efforts? How was your Multi Zone Conference? What did you learn? Things here are good. Tyler and I flew to San Francisco on Tuesday to watch 2 games and then flew home on Wednesday. I am realizing just how little I actually really like flying. I have felt so 'off' on our last few trips that I just dread getting on a plane. And since the Braves only won 1 of the 2 games I get frustrated spending the money to go watch them lose when I could j...

At the zoo Boa He was scared to hold them but not afraid to touch them Fun fact: the snake was licking my neck haha District These ones eat eggs More of the python  

P dayzzzz I cannot believe it is already Monday again! Holy cow this week has flown by. I was busy trying to get some window washing arranged so my call this week with Elder Garcia was a little later in the day and wasn't as long, but I am still super grateful for the chance to get to talk to him even if it is brief. :)  Some of the highlights of this week were: - Elder Garcia is looking forward to a Multi Zone Conference that is coming up that will bring every last one of the missionaries in Togo together. I imagine in my own mind what that  might look like but just imagining what the overall feel of that meeting with all of those missionaries would be awesome. I am so excited for this chance for him and then to hear all about it. - Elder Garcia was back at the zoo today with his District.

Exchange with Elder Kempe  

From: Mom To: Christian.garcia@missionary.org Date: Saturday, September 10, 2022 Subject: Fall is coming Hey kiddo, How are you this week? How have things been progressing and moving along with your ami's and any new finds this week? How is your companion? How are the other Elders doing in the apartment? Things here at home are good. There is a crispness in the morning air that reminds me that Fall is knocking on our doors and I need to ready myself for that. Even though I am so not ready! :) There wasn't school or work on Monday so it was nice to not have anything to worry about. B hung out with friends, Kaitlyn got fried with friends on boats at Deer Creek. She was gone all day and had the best time. Tyler and I flew to Oakland on Tuesday for the games there. We had great seats in the press box that came with all you could drink drinks, hot dogs, pizzas, candy, ice cream, and more. Plus the Braves won both games so that was fun. We made nice with the guy working ...
