Week #71

This week was awesome! We found the sickest dude to teach. Plus we went on like 2 exchanges and I was with Romriell again. Crusty. 

Last Monday we were up at the mission office so Elder Kane could do some computer stuff. It was chill. Got to talk to my family haven’t done that in a minute. 

Tuesday we just worked all day until it was time to exchange. We exchanged with the orizaba elders so I went into their area and I went with Elder Ormond and Terry. 

Wednesday The Day was loco we had tons of lessons and I was just so impressed with these two missionaries. They are in their third and second transfer. This two will be the face of the English program. Mark my words. 

Thursday I went on a day exchange with Elder Romriell. Elder Kane went up to the mission office. So Rums and I hit the streets. That’s  when we found Tahir. Don’t get it mistaken with Tamir lol. He was in Rums area Book and we were looking for his son. He made time for us to come by the next day.  

Friday we had district meeting then went straight over to Tahir’s house and had a good lesson and they invited us to come over next week! Found him on Facebook and turns out our boy is in a sick reggae band. This dude is legit. He is even on  iTunes. Can’t wait for our next appointment. Also found another investigator finished the night with our boy bro Garcia. 

Saturday we had to go down to Torrance for Elder kane to work on his computer thing again. That took up a good chunk of our day. Came home and ate with the old bishop 

from. The Santa Fe Springs bishop. He’s a stud and his family picture is in the Spanish tithing pamphlet.

Sunday we had the special stake conference broadcast. It was really great! I loved what Elder christofferson had to say about lifting where you are and every calling in the church is so important. Every member in the church has some weight to pull! Keep on that covenant path boi.

Love you all! Especially you tamales❤️ have a good week!

Week #70

This week was hecka busy with exchanges interviews and proselyting. 

Last Monday we had to go to the Torrance North zone so Elder Kane could do some things on the computer with some other nerd dudes. On the plus we did eat at cafe rio After we went and chilled at the FHL then went and saw downtown at night from around the Hollywood sign. 

Tuesday we watched the broadcast and got to see who the new first presidency is! It was awesome! Shoutout to the guy who dropped the mic on the floor. Classic. I am very excited to follow the new prophet! After we just. Went and worked in our area until dinner where ate dinner with bishop Puppé and his family. Then that night we exchanged and I was with my boy Elder Campbell from Idaho falls 

Wednesday we started by playing basketball. Then we went and hit the streets! We just visited members the entire day. Didn’t really have a whole bunch of success almost no one was home but we worked hard! Plus we went to La Playita for dinner!

Thursday we had interviews all day long... it sucked but got to meet everyone in the zone. Guess that’s not a bad thing. 

Friday we had district meeting/ZLC. after we went and worked until we had to go back to Torrance North so Elder Kane could follow up on the software with the nerd guys. None of them were there waste of a night.  

Saturday we actually went down to Torrance North and Elder Kane and now the “homies” and they sat down and touched a keyboard. I was busy trying to catch up in the Book of Mormon. 

Sunday we went to church then had dinner with the strangest family on the planet. It was too crusty for me so we got in and out quick. Right after we had the miracle of finding a less active family that we have tried for a while now and sat down and had a lesson with them!

Forgot to mention but like 2 months ago we started to read the Book of Mormon in 90 days. Got way behind but am catching up! It’s amazing starting all over again. It is growing my testimony of this book quick!  Man I love it!

Week #66&67

Lo siento for not writing a weekly last week just talked to my fam the day before plus was hecka lazy. But these last two week have been great! Elder Hanson and I are really figuring things out and are starting to turn our days into systems! 

Last Monday was Christmas! It was so nice to hear and see my family! They are all doing great! We Skyped at President Galoraths house, his house is on an edge of a cliff overlooking Catalina. Freaking sick nasty. We spent the day delivering thank you notes to all of the ward members who have been a huge help to us. 

Tuesday was l day. We did our normal p day things and went to an aquarium! It was super fun! After p day ended the Basso family came and took Elder Hanson and I out to dinner! It was awesome seeing them and catching up with them!  One of the best nights out here on the mish!

Wednesday was just a normal work day had ZLC. some lady in our ward took us to Denny’s😡 ate it made me sick we had to go in early. I knocked out at 7:55

Thursday we had MLC pretty much all day long. It was a more chill MLC enjoyed it! Came home and had to go right to dinner 

Friday We had district meeting then went out and worked!  Then exchanged but elder Walker was with us in a trio! Offered to sleep on the floor. Terrible idea. 

Saturday we hit the pavement had some cool miracles with meeting some part member families! 

Sunday was asked to say the opening prayer in sacrament meeting. Realized it was my first time and I guess I said the same thing twice right in a row like a complete idiot. Had to be in the apartment by 6 so luckily we bought some Ben and Jerry’s the night before and we watched Ephraims rescue. Went to bed really early. 

Monday we hit the pavement again sat and talked with a less active member who won the world championship for skateboarding. He was pretty chill! Changed the subject when. We brought up church tho:(
