~February 13, 2012- Giving Service!~

Last week Elder Garcia and Elder Oliverson found a Salvation Army and thought it was just a store, but it was actually a church congregation! not the store! They decided to just ask one of the ladies there if there was any service they could give, she looked at them funny and was surprised that someone would be willing to help out for FREE! She had a southern accent which they thought was cool!
Elder Garcia got another flat tire this week and needs major repairs sohe got an old bike from a guy who gave him his bike (which happened to be a girls bike!) so he took off some bolts and screws, the chain, the gear system, brake line and switched them into my bike! He says that its great now!
Elder Garcia and Elder Oliverson are really excited for the upcoming weeks. They are volunteering at a local library and might be volunteers at the YMCA there too. Also they are planning to put up a little lemonade stand and have a sign that says MEET THE MORMONS! So anyone who wants free lemonade can also read about what we believe. They also are having a baptism this week of a little boy! Elder Garcia wanted Elder Oliverson to baptize him and he is super excited for that because it will be his first, and he has to say it in Spanish!!
Elder Garcia says that he is gaining lots of weight!! Below is a cute picture of a missionary that he says he is going to look like in a few months! ;)
(Also, today is Elder Garcia's Birthday!!! He's 21!)
