Rejection, Questions, All In One Latino House, And California Screemin

Hey everybody,. Are you ready for a better email than last week. I know it won't be that hard to write a better email than last week.  OK so quick last week was nothing compared to this week. Brief run down of last week. A lot of rejection:( like I felt a little bit like a missionary in Europe). We had exchanges with the Zonies. I was with Elder Frame in his area. We had a viz it with two sisters who are X JWs. They had a lot of questions. We had a viz with a couple who wasn't expecting us, but they let us in. Their first language is Mixteco so their Spanish was not bad but not what you think of when you think Mexican Spanish. Elder Frame and I went out for Sushi. There's a deal for California rolls on Tuesdays. I've started to like California rolls out here in California.  So We went to this one house that we had been to a couple times before. We have met 3 different people who have said they lived there. So when we went to the house last week we were looking for 3 dif...

Peeches/We All Have The Same Color Blood

Hello wonderful children of God! Honestly the mission has changed my vew of people. Someone said I look like a peach cuz my cheecks were red and someone was saying we all are God's fam cuz we all have the same color blood. Haha.  This is what I have been studying this week: Psalm 46:10 Romans 8:24-25 Psalm 37:7 Proverbs 14:2 luke 21:19 Romans 5:3, 8:25 Hebrews 10:36 James 1:3 Mosiah 23:21-23 D&C 24:8, 4:6 Proverbs 15:1 D$C 64:33 (Preach my Gospel & topical guide have more scriptures) Is it obvious I studied patience a little bit Psalm27:1 Deuteronomy 31:8 Joshua 1:9 "Be Responsible" - Elder Lynn G Robbins (2017 byu education week) "lift up your heads and rejoice" - M. Joseph Brough Second Counselor in the Young Men General Presidency October 2018 Anyway I totally ran outta time.

The Three Amigos Ride Again

What is up everyone?!?! I hope you have all had a stellar week! I sure did!  So let's start out with transfers. On Tuesday we had transfers. Are you ready for the big news... I ... Am staying here in Santa Maria for another transfer. Elder Sayre got called to be the District Leader, so I am a district leader assistant again. Yeay. OK here's where the title comes from. Two of the missionaries that were in my MTC district are now here in my district. Like that's so cool. We knew that WE would be in the same mission but now almost 10 months in to our mission 3/5 of us are in the same district here in Santa Maria California. Best of all we are an all Spanish district. That's we're all the missionaries in a district are Spanish speaking. Literally so fun! Also the Zone leaders are in the district so thats fun!  We had a good week! We had interviews this week. They went well. President and Sister Carter are so cool! This week was also a lot of finding new people to teach....

Hey everyone! You I know that email last week was kinda lacking. Here we go this one will be better.  Funny story: As you know drunk people are very interesting sometimes. So we got talking to this dude. He said a lot of things, but the best thing was "if Adam didn't f up then we would all be vegetarians, ya he f d up but I'm here with my Steak so I'm happy." 2: This dude was sitting on the hood of his car drinking with his buddies. They bounced as soon as we came, but this dude Kevin was interesting. He wanted to talk. He had lots of questions for us. He was telling us about his life. Ya lots of vulgar stuff. He was F bombing every other word but he was preaty nice and respectfull. He said he was free on the weekend. We told him about conference,. He said he'd be down. I'll attach a screenshot of a covo we had the next day. OK conference!! I love conference! It is awesome on the mission cuz it's so nice to just slow down our crazy life for a sec. Hone...
