Gabe's Email

Got this from him today!


Mommy!
So i just copied and pasted half this letter becaus eits what i wrote to dad. but anyways I love it here! So the area im in is awesome! Im in Long Beach east and im litterally smack dab in the ghetto. Like seriously. We walk the streets and we see gang members on every corner. Dont freak out or anything but the area im in is known for
stabbbings and ive heard  a total of 13 shots in the past week. But the good thing is that we are the most protected people in the area. Besides the lord watching over us, last night while walking past some of the top gang members there are, they stopped us and asked us if anyone was harassing or messing with us. Then they said "Well stay safe and we got your backs." I love it here! Even the hispanic gangs love us and invite us to there baby showers! Everyone sees os and either avoids us or smiles and askes how we are doing. Also in my first week here Ive taught 10 lessons, found 5 new investigators, and committed a homeless person to getting off alchol, getting into a shelter, and getting baptized! She reads her BoM every night and prays multiple times a day! We go by her every day and she says she prayes every day to see us. Shes an amazing soul and I love feeling her spirit. I love it here! Well gtg

My P-days are on monday so ill message you on mondays. Love you!

Ps I didnt get the suit yet and thank you for the POG!
