Rain And Taste Bugs

So ya know I hit 7 months today, ya no biggie. Haha, for real that's crazy!


So I don't remember if I mentioned it last week. Transfers happened on Tuesday. I bet you can guess what happened to me.......  I think I might have told you already but I'm still here in Moorpark/TO yahh! Since Elder Langford left I have been in this zone longer than anyone else in my zone. Basically the same area. So ya. We live in Thousand Oaks cuz the new third Spanish companionship is in the apartment I was in on bikes. So we live right across the complex of the apartments I started in. Luckily this one is pretty nice. 


Elder Ogden is going back to Argentina on Thursday. That's crazy!


It was pretty rainy and cold this week. 


Story 1: Elder Wade (one of my roommates) hasn't been able to taste or smell for like a week ish. So on Saturday I made him a smoothie. I put in spinach and carrots and milk and V8 vegetable juice and celery. It smelled and tasted horrible. Like make you gag it was terrible. We all had a sip. Elder Wade drank a whole mug of it. It was pretty funny!

We found 3 new people this week! They all seem solid. OK here's the story with one of them. 


Her name is Rosa. We found her walking around in mini Mexico. Normal conversation at first. Then she said we could share a message. So we jumped into the restoration. Longer story shorter. She broke down twice. Once when we got to the first Vision and again when we gave her a BOM. She could obviously feel the spirit. I have never seen someone get so emotional in a lesson. It was truly amazing!


Rosa is the "golden investigator" it was a very cool experience. She told us that she's not usually outside. We told her we met for a reason there are no coincidences. God knows us. He 212% is guiding us as missionaries. (BTW, we are all missionaries not just us ppl with white shirts)


We found another Jose. Also we went by Jose Uribe's, the guy we dropped a little bit ago. He wants us to come back and teach him and the fam on Wednesday. Awesome!
