Multi Cultural Event

Image
Man this week just flew on by I can't believe that it's already PDay that's for sure. Time on the mission just seems to keep on going by faster and faster!     Nothing to crazy and out of the ordinary this week it has been a solid week! We did lots of teaching and we're able to find some new people to teach! Somone we are super excited about is someone we just picked up! He is actually married to a member and he isn't a member of the church. He has come to church though and is wanting to be able to be the best example he can be to his future family. We went over and got to know him and teach him a little and he is super willing and excited to learn. Me and my companion feel really good about him and are excited to go back and teach him!! So amazing to see that he doesnt really know much about the church but that he wants to learn and make it to the temple one day so that he can be with his family forever. So amazing!     We had this really big multi cultural event h...

Covering Two Areas

What a week it has been wowza we got our new companions and turns out that the one I was put with was actually in the hospital SO I didn't have a companion to be with... It was crazy no one told me what or where to go so I took matters into my own hands and I met up with some elders near my area and said I'm with you guys.     What this means is this week we have been covering two areas so my space just like tripled that I cover and we don't have a car.. It's all been on foot and with the help from the members we have been able to attempt to serve all the people we have. It as been stressful at times but it has been so amazing to see the members of the wards be willing to jump in and help us out with rides and such. Even on Sunday we had so much church to go to so whag ended up happening is we went on splits with members and I had a member of the stake be my companion and we went to church. It was so different that's for sure but really cool. It's not a common t...

Very Eventful Week

I am no longer in a trio so that's been changed, I am now with my companion as of Wednesday!! It was nice to be finally back in my area and be able to sleep in my own bed and not on the floor with a futon so that was nice. It was also nice to be able to fully serve in my own area and not have to split the areas and not do work in my own area to be honest aha!     Elder Cornelius is my companion and he is awesome! He's from Washington state and has been out on his mission for a while so he knows what he is doing! I know I got lots to learn from him so I definitely will be paying attention to what he does!     Some cool things that happened this week for sure! As you know the trio was split up but we still had lots of fun, we tried to recreate a photo and I thought I'd show you our efforts it's pretty great! We had a great time as a trio it was definitely lots of fun!     We had a pretty awesome teaching experience using technology!! An elder serving in San D...

Superbowl Sunday

Its been a pretty good week this week been really busy for sure! Its transfer week this week and we figured out what's going on but we still don't know where.     I am staying in the area still for another transfer but my companion is leaving. Unfortunately we are being separated which is going to be tough since we've gotten to be so close but it be good. I've learned that change is good even though it can be hard sometimes. We just need to be ready to accept the change and move forward having faith in what we are doing! We have visited lots of member since elder Kennedy is saying good bye to everyone so it's been lots of fun seeing everyone! Yesterday being super bowl Sunday we didn't watch the game but we ate like all the food aha! Every single house we went too had food for us so we were stuffed full of food last night!     We got to go to a baptism on Saturday with our recent convert!! It was super cool experience she was able to remember everything that she...
