  June 16 Hi Everyone,   Sorry I forgot to get an email out last week.  It has been a busy couple of weeks.  I am in a new area and there is a lot going on here.  I am back in Georgia for the 3rd time ..  I am now in Augusta Georgia.  It is where the Master's golf tournament is held and it is a pretty big area. It is a lot of fun and my new companion is Elder Stoker.  He has been out for like 10 months!  So far it has been a great time.   This week a guy I taught in the Simpsonville first area was baptized.  His name is Walter and I never thought he would be baptized lol.  But here we are.  I'm happy for him.   Also I ward share with one of the missionaries I trained! Elder Rose. It is cool seeing him again.  It was a little sad to leave White Knoll but I am excited for Augusta.   (Pics:  Most of the pictures are with people he taught or grew close to in White Knoll.)     Love, ...

  June 2 Hi Everyone,   This week was a pretty standard one.  I went on more exchanges and had a good time! We have been teaching a guy named Fred and we are hopefully working towards him being baptized on June 14th.  I really hope he makes it.  I have been teaching him my whole time here and he is making some pretty good progress. It has been great to see!  He said that he would pray about the church and he said he did and received a great answer! My companion and I were really excited to hear that!  So I have been praying for him to make it!   This week is transfers so I might be moving! We will see!   Love, Elder Gurney
