Old Sacramento! (Sept. 22nd email)

Hey guys!!

Sounds like a wonderful week yall had :) That is awesome. It is so cool to hear about the temple and the rededication and everything. And all the pics and videos! They downloaded so slow that I only saw one but it was awesome. Thanks always for those!

That is a super good Mormon message. We have used it a couple times before! It is really inspiring.

They invited you guys cuz "you are in the bishopric"...riiiiggghhhht ;) jk that is awesome! :) those were always fun and it is awesome to see all the happy seniors!

I think we got a TINY bit of rain during the night this week, but it was SUPER dirty. The smoke from the King fire has been destroying the air here! But there have been clouds till today which is awesome. I had forgotten what they looked like. Hopefully rain soon :) We have been biking a bit this week so the cooler weather has been nice.

We are teaching more than them two! There is a man named Mario who is living with a LA and her kids and one that is both of theirs. They are both married to other people, his wife in Mexico and her husband around here. He would get baptized right now if he could, but she has been unwilling to cooperate. Their relationship is difficult so it is basically just super frustrating. But the goal is to talk to her tonight, we have an appointment with them. We just need to talk to her and see how we can help. It is sad to see the hurt and heartache that can be avoided when we just follow the gospel way. He is seeing all the blessings in the book from the gospel, which is amazing. She just needs to get on board.

There is also a guy named Ramon, who is awesome. He came to church yesterday. He is just a little bit crazy but that makes him fun. A great guy, and he is learning and progressing. There are others as well, but they are the most prominent ones!

I know that there is always a lot to talk about probably but I feel like I either never remember any of it or I just can't think of anything unique :) The work really doesn't change much week to week ;) We did go to Old Sacramento last preparation day which was cool! All over around downtown and like the packed huge highway and interchange. It was chaotic and fun. Old Sac is way cool as well! I have pics.

Love you guys! I hope you have a good week. Be safe and spread that gospel! I miss you all!
