What’s up y’all!!!!
This week has been fantastic! The package you sent arrived last week but I forgot to tell you! Haha sorry. It was awesome!!! I loved it and it gave me motivation to keep working harder. Thank you so much!
So yesterday was sweet, it was the Baptism of M______! She was the investigator that I found in my first area back in Long Beach! It was awesome because in our mission if you have an investigator from your last area you can go to their baptism!!! It was super cool to go back and see her get baptized. It was awesome!
This week, we had to do some cleaning in our old apartment before they closed it down, and we were in charge of cleaning out the garage. Apparently about a year ago, the missionaries in this area let an older lady use the garage for storage, and now, there is no way to get back in contact with her, the old missionaries don’t know how to get in contact with her. So they told us to just throw it all away. We found some weird stuff in there. We found probably every book that has ever been written on fly-fishing, an electronic typewriter (which works but is out of ink), a laptop that totally still works, and about 50 packets of Tic-Tacs. There was also a bunch of random junk.
(I am not sure what I should do with the laptop because it works perfectly.)
So this week we were teaching R____, and he was telling us about all of these strange dreams that he is having. It is crazy because all of his dreams have so much in common with the tree of life and Lehi’s dream. We talked to him about it and answered a lot of his questions. We are going to try and get him to start coming to church. He is still really hesitant and feels not ready so keep him in your prayers.
This week we have been working really hard and a lot of our investigators have opened up to us. We are super excited and I hope we have a lot of success in the coming weeks.
I love Huntington Beach. The people here are great. It is so weird to be in English wards every Sunday but it kinda feels like home. It is also weird because we eat with the English members and it is white people food all the time. I finally got used to Hispanic food and then I came here. It is weird… they actually serve DESERT!!!!! It is awesome! haha
I love serving a mission and I love all of you guys
