Week 78: July 3


Happy Fourth of July week!! I hope all y'all  light as many fireworks as possible !💥 

This week was good Monday we went and played basketball for pday and hung out with all the missionaries, after we went and visited a less active family and shared the do not despair talk so that was good to see them. 

Tuesday was good we didn't have district meeting because we have zone conference on Friday. But we went and did  some finding tried to visit a couple potentials and we went contacting and finding downtown it's interesting trying to contact downtown really anywhere cause people are walking by really fast and especially when they see us they seem to walk a little faster haha, it can be awkward at times but there are some cool people to talk to. That night we had an amazing dinner with a sister at this restaurant called toast, it is amazing!! But it was cool to listen to her to share a couple scriptures about prayer with her. 

Wednesday we did a little finding in the morning and then the carlsons came and drove us to Sacramento and of course we got there super early my appointment was set 4:45 and we got there at 2 so we went an contacted by the capital it was super cool, we met with homeless guy who was actually a member a lost is home a week ago, so we bought him subway and talked with him for a while and then we committed him to go and find a church this coming Sunday to go to, it was a cool experience. After the appointment we went and had dinner at pita pats and drove home. 

Thursday was good we went and did some finding and we went down to the church in San Rafael and did some computer stuff for my companion, and then we went to service and the medical clinic handing out food to people in need. Under the tents luckily the heat wave is gone so it's cool outside it's super cool to see the huge wall of fog come in from the ocean. But after dinner we went and visited a recent convert that went to the temple just this last week and read the scriptures with him. 

Friday was zone conference it was good we met up in Rohnert park we were combined with the Santa Rosa elder and sisters, we did some practices and we talked about teaching and our skills and a story about leaving our nets and our fishing and never returning, there was a talk from elder holland about that we can never return to our nets so it was pretty cool. There was a ton of departing testimonies there is like over 20 missionaries going home this transfer that's a lot. My companion is going home next month. So yeah it was a good day. 

Saturday we played ball in the morning with some people and then we planned all day so not that exciting.

Sunday was good we were asked to teach the young men about going on missions and  that we are regular people and normal. And that we had normal life's before this haha. It was good. After church we went and visited a less active family that came to church so that was sweeet. And we are not meeting with John anymore sadly.  It that was my week !! We don't know if we can do anything for the Fourth of July so we are still waiting on a reply from the boss. But sounds like the kids are doing good!! And it sounds like when I get home it will be like getting a new house cause dad is remodeling everything ! Haha. I will try to take a pic for Avery. Love you guys!!
