Hey familia!
So this week was super busy. Not a lot of time
to proselyte. We watched Meet the Mormons which was sweeeet! Way good. Then we
did service at a local food bank for a few hours which was really fun and felt
good. It is interesting to see the spectrum of gratitude of these people. It
was great to help some neat people.
Conference was awesome as usual! It was so
cool that some got to speak in Spanish. Really awesome experience. We watched
it in english except for those talks and most of the Priesthood session! We
watched it at our stake center (on Wissemann dr. and Folsom blvd.). It was
really sad that we didn't have any investigators come. But hopefully church
this week will work out! I really loved a lot the focus on personal conversion
and not throwing away what we know just because of opposition. And of course
the ones about missionary work! Elder Christofferson's was one of my favorites
as well.
The hot weather is kind of getting annoying
now ;) We talked to some black people and the lady was like "God is
punishing California, this is the worst place I've lived! God is just saying
'ok, I'm gonna get you as close to hell as I can before I destroy ya, see if ya
shape up" or something to that effect haha. But hopefully moisture will
come around sometime.
We got to go to the temple this morning which
was a huge blessing. I love it. It was really good for me.
Other than that we were just running around a
lot! We talked to some interesting people. Probably the most drunk person I
have met, he almost fell over multiple times and about threw up on us. I don't
get alcohol. Our investigator Ramon is hilarious and keeps us laughing. Genaro
and his family are really awesome and are going to be getting a date this week!
That is exciting. They are a wonderful little family.
Well I love you guys! Stay safe and strong. I
miss you guys so much! I am trying to be the best missionary I can. I love you
guys and I am so thankful for all you have done for me. Love you!
(P.S. This week was transfer week, but Elder
Graham and I are staying!)
