This week has been pretty good it went by pretty fast haha. On
Monday we had pday that was pretty fun we played some hardcore basketball and
then we played soccer. After pday we went to the Spanish elders investigators
for dinner and we had pozole a Mexican dish you would probably know what that
is mom, it was so good. I also tried pata (pigs foot) which has a very weird
taste that you can't really describe haha. Then for desert we had this amazing
cake thing called chocoflan. It was amazing. Before the mission I didn't like
Mexican food, but going to have to Change cause 80%' of what we eat is Mexican
meals. It's driving me insane.!!
So Tuesday we had zone meeting which was really good. Zone leaders
taught us. Then we had to leave early because w had an appointment with our
investigator John. The lesson went well we talked to him about how he is
progressing really well and we asked him to be ready for a baptismal date. He
agreed!! So we have another baptism date! Yeah!
On Wednesday we went to the food bank in the morning and then
Isaac our mission ward leader took us out for sushi which was so good!! There
are some sweet sushi places out here. Then we went and did some contacting out
on the streets and then Isaac needed help so we went and helped him with his
truck. After we went and had dinner with the oedings it was good. We had
enchilada casserole. Yeah 😑 oh and I am just putting
what I remember what we did this week I can hardly remember what we do in the
day when night comes.
On Thursday we did service at plowshares doing dishes and feeding
homeless people. There everywhere. There is so many homeless people it's not
okay. After that we went and taught out investigator Jeffery and Shanea. We
read from the Book of Mormon with them and asked if they would pray about it
they both agreed. We them went and saw a lot of less actives and we went
finding through out the day.
Friday we weekly planned all day haha. Took a break in the middle
then after weekly planning we went to the rorobaughs house ( members house) and
we did some service we had to build this huge green house without instructions
cause the instructions couldn't be read cause of water damage haha. So that was
fun, had to use my brain finally 😉 we then ate dinner and
cause it was April fools it was a meatloaf cake!! It looked like a actual cake
they did a good job haha. And we had jello for our drinks which was interesting
trying to suck up in a straw haha.
Saturday was really good conference was amazing!! I forgot my
notes but from all the talks. My favorite was by Elder Nelson in the
priesthood session it was so amazing, he explained how much power the
priesthood really has and that we need to make sure that we are Worthy to hold
it. We are doing so much stuff in the world that prevents us from having the
full power of the priesthood, and that we need to do our best to want to hold
as much as possible. I loved the talk yesterday on refugees that was
interesting. I feel like this conference was focused on families and the
priesthood, but also having humility and to never ever give up. When we fall we
rise back up because that's what the atonement is for we of course will fall we
are all human we will be smashed down because we are not perfect but because of
Jesus Christ we can be though the atonement. I loved the last talk yesterday
afternoon Jeffery Hollands. That was so powerful! It was the best way to end it
I think. I loved all the other talks. I wish I brand. My notes :( cause I have
like a page on all of them haha.
How was conference for you guys?? Transfers are tomorrow!! I am
staying in Ukiah still! And my companion is still elder Warnick. So that's
cool. I love you guys!
Love,
