Week 19: May 16





My week was good ! It was a long week haha end of transfers and super tiring, it seems all the missionaries are tired all week and excited for transfers haha. Guess what I am getting transferred to Lakeport!! I have been there many times haha. You can look it up on the map of you want haha.

My new companion will be Elder Sutterfield. He is finishing next month, I don't like killing missionaries there trunky. But Heavenly Father has put me with him for a reason so I will find out :) I am excited to go haha. I will send you my new address as soon as I get there haha.

I said goodbye to a lot of people today surprisingly a lot of people were sad. Which is weird haha. But they made me bare my testimony and say goodbye it was good. I will miss Ukiah but ready for new experiences with other places and ready to move on.

We didn't make it to the beach last Monday people wanted to stay and play sports I guess. :( but today we are going to Montgomery woods should get some cool pictures hopefully. Then we might play ball after. So it will just be me and my comp a lone in an apartment so yay!

This week was good we were all just waiting for transfers to come taught Shawna again and it was an amazing lesson we taught her the first commandments and we picked a date for her to be baptized!! June 18th so hopefully president wright will let me come down for that he should though haha, I am super excited for that. I went on exchanges with elder maritenez on Tuesday I love that guy he is so funny we tracked a lot of places and did a lot of contacting some of our lessons canceled which was sad :( he taught Michael and Alice this week on studying the schriptures. It was good we just are struggling on how to bring up the word of wisdom with Michael cause he drinks everyday and loves it a lot.

Oh Elder Warnick is being called to zone leader again. So that's what he is doing. We did a ton of contacting this week and it was really good, we both were praying for the faith to find. Instead of just praying to find people.. Huge difference in the work. I have started throughly studying Jesus the Christ. It is super crazy, we were at terry Paige's house a member that we visit In a resting home. He told us some deep doctrine and it was a lot. I am super interested in that stuff. I just need to be careful with it.

My left nostril I  think needs cauterized, I am having a ton of huge bloody noses and having to clean my white shirts. I will call president, And talk to him about it. I could just wait until I get home. It might be best idk. How is the family? I miss you guys.

Yesterday was crazy haha we were walking and three gang members carrying machetes around there necks walk to us and we said hi haha and one of them said to stay away from one of the. Cause he is super crazy, the guy looked like he wanted to kill us. But it was cool. :) but yeah

On Thursday was probably the best experience we visited Michael and Rose and had a huge bonding moment with them. It was a good experience they shared a personal problem and I was able to help them. Now I know what my patriarchal blessing means. I think that's the reason I got sent here to Ukiah. That's what they said any ways :) that's my week!
