Service and tacos


Hey all!
So this week was a little hard and disappointing but that happens!

 I finally got to eat from the Picosita, like the best taco truck in the Sacramento area! So good. They are everywhere down here and I love it.


We got to do some unexpected service this week helping an investigator clean their house. It was super filthy and infested with cockroaches and such...but after a couple hours it was a little better! It was good to do service. It always brings the Spirit when we do good things for others.

 Our investigator Cassandra is amazing and super smart. Hopefully we can get her to church next week! She is super sensitive to the spirit which is great. It is interesting to see how the devil works against us. When we went to have a lesson with her, as soon as we started the next door neighbor started blasting linkin park, and then the baby was crying and going crazy, then some other guys pulled up and were blasting their mariachi music. It was so distracting and not a good environment to have the spirit there to testify. But we did the best we could, and it ended up ok! The adversary tries hard, but we just have to try harder!


The weather while the sun is up has been absolutely perfect. Gets cold at nights though on bike! Especially when there is no time to go get your jacket for the evening!


We didn't see the progress that we had hoped for last week, and we are looking for a fantastic week ahead. Last week of the transfer, which blows my mind. We are going to be challenging and testifying missionaries and talking to many many people! The Lord puts them in our path.


If I could ask you all to do anything this week, it would be to read the talk "Creating a Gospel-Sharing Home" by Elder Ballard. It is incredible! I promise you will feel the spirit of missionary work as you read!
I hope you all have a good week and are safe and warm. We are hurting for rain here badly. The whole state is going to have a fast! I hope you are getting the moisture you need.


Love you all! Thank you for your support and love. God bless :)
