This
week was very crazy, since transfers and driving down to Vacaville it was an
adventure. Monday we had pday and we just went to the church and said goodbye
to people and just hung out, after we went back to our apartment and got all of
my stuff and packed and said goodbye to out companions and we went down and
spent the night in eureka that night and got up at 4:30 am and left at 5
Tuesday morning to Santa Rosa. I was the driver and it was a struggle haha. Got
really tired about 2 hours into it and had to switch drivers we made it to
Santa Rosa and unpacked and said hi to a lot of people which was awesome to see
them especially elder southwick it was good to see him again. I said hi to
sister jay as well haha.
After
that we packed our car up and talked to the sisters a little about our area
cause we are whitewashing 2 areas, Brownsvalley 5 the ward and the YSA. Which
is crazy haha. But we got all our stuff and drove over there and unpacked all
of our stuff into the apartment the apartment is pretty big, we both get our
own showers and bathrooms, and it has a walk in closet which is sick! 👍 but yeah we received a call from
with guy that we had a lesson with right then so that was a huge suprise, he
didn't even unpack and the sisters didn't tell us we had a lesson that day so
that was interesting we were running all over the place. And we had correlation
with our ward mission leader so that was good. We had dinnner that night with
this family from Brazil and there house is so big! It was crazy.
But
Wednesday was us trying to get all the area Book set up and trying to figure
out who is our investigators and people that we could go teach. We were supposed to have
splits that night but I guess the ward was confused so they didn't happen.
Thursday
was cool we went to the opportunity house it's a thrift store a huge one and we
did service there and it was fun, after that we went finding still trying to
get our area down we both don't know where anything is so that's fun. But that
night we had institute it was really good president wrights councilor teaches
that and we got to meet most of the YSA it was really good it was about coming
unto Christ and pulling all the roots out meaning sin instead of just mowing
them and leaving them to regrow so that was cool.
Friday
was weekly planning that was good we also went to the opportunity house to do a
booth and try to find investigators so that was cool.
Saturday
was good we had zone meeting and we went to the opportunity house again cause
they really need help cause of Christmas, zone meeting was good everyone is
getting sick though so that's sad. But we learned about finding and learning to
better use the holiday initiative.
Sunday
was good we went to the YSA church ward Council that was good we met a lot of
the people and leaders, pretty cool leader it's kinda weird working with
leaders around my age, after that we went to sacrament there was about 30 YSA
that showed up, that's actually pretty good, a ton are leaving though after
Christmas break for back to school which is sad. But really fun people a
lot are return missionaries that Sunday night we had a meet and greet with the
stake presidency and they gave a talk on how 50% of missionaries go less active
when they get home, which is really sad... but on how we can better our ward
missionaries and how we can help members become more better and member lessons
and supporting cause a lot of them are scared going to lessons and what to say
and that sort of thing so we learned about helping them which was good. But
yeah that was my week pretty crazy haha. Only going to get more crazy when we
start teaching and helping more people.
Christmas
is this week!!! I get to see you guys!! I love you guys!! I hope all is well!
Hit a year on Friday ! Was boss !
