WEEK 103

Hello, everyone!

For those who don't know or may be unaware, the 23rd is near. I may not have contact with many of you until the following day though. I'm expected to land in Fort Lauderdale airport around 10:30 PM (providing there are no delays). No complaints though. I can use the time on Tuesday to think about plans and goals for myself in coming back home.

It has been an amazing 23-1/2 months. I look forward to sharing as many things with you that I'll be able to. We have a lot of catching up to do and I'm certain it will happen one way or another as we are coming into the holiday months.

Over the weekend, at General Conference, it was announced that males can now volunteer to serve a mission at 18 and females can now volunteer to serve at 19. The people here in California are pretty excited. Elder Brough mentioned to me that most of the new missionaries would have only been 8-years-old when I was in college. Crazy to imagine!

Things in Vallejo are going well. One of the families we are working with, Francisco & Ada, were able to watch some of General Conference. They really enjoyed it. After the conference we gathered at a member's home and ate pupusas. The two together make a great combination for spiritual and physical nourishment. :)

Everything else in Vallejo is fine-diddly-doo. If there are any changes or updates I will fill you in next week. If not next week, whenever we talk. Take care! Have a great week! I love you all.

- Elder Gallegos
