Pioneer

Well I think I have qualified to be a pioneer. im sure i could have made to missiouri by now! hahahah but everything is going good I have been walking a ton and trying to find people! Well we had some good times this lady let us go into her house and gave us water and stuff and we were just talking about religion and she brought up this stuff about the catholic church and how she is having problems. I then bore my testimony about the plan of salvation and shared a scripture and it went super freaking good!! Well I went to register my visa last week too and it took forever thats for sure but was good and then went to the doctor the next day for my ankle because its still been bothering me a little but he just told me to pop pills and do excercises, so thats good. Also today we went to the temple and guess who was there?! Ya you guessed David Archuleta doing his final temple run before he goes home! So I got to do a temple session with him hahaha but he is ssoooo shy and its almost kinda weird hahaha but hes a cool cat! but Im doing good and i love the temple a ton! But seriously I hear the most ridiculous excuses all day and the people are so annoyed with us hahaha but its all good! Oh and we had a meeting to have emergency plan for a natural disaster because we have little tremprs or little earth quakes but I dont think anything will happen but we just have to be prepared! but love you guys!

First Baptism

Whats up my cotton headed niggy muggins?! Well since I have got here I have been walking and havent stopped... basically sucks a lot hahaha not gonna but im suffering with joy and we are working hard so thats all that matters!! Well I honestly dont have a lot this week its honestly just been walking trying to find people thats it. I havent had the success that i want so far but you know what they say, while your suffering it just means there is a blessing around the corner! Im glad I learned tons of patience before my mission and on my mission because I have had to use it a lot no lie! But the best thing that happened this week was I had my first baptism!!! It was Nicolas martinez and it was on saturday and honestly I needed that so much and I got to see all the familiar faces in my old sector and companion! I really miss my old companion he was seriously so awesome and elder allen too!! But it was just a beautiful thing and now he is a member but the best part is that his mom loves the crap out of me!! seriously they just love me a ton!!! but I just felt like I was family there! The members here are super awesome to but i have just known the others for longer thats all! Well i saw this old man get hit by a car and it was nuts!!he freaking just walked it off to!! Well i hope your praying for me because I need it for the work here! Oh also thank you grandma for the gifts and martin for the jersey I freaking love it and all the latinos want to trade but that aint happening!!! Love you guys!

Chena

Well I'm in the Chena ward now, and the ward is great for sure.I'm super excited because this sector has a lot of people and a lot of potencial! I think I can turn this sector around. I didn't come into a white-wash, but we have no investigators progressing and no baptism dates either, so its going to be super tough for sure! Basically by the end of this change I want 6 dates and 22 to 25 lessons a week! You think I can do it?! With God nothing is impossible. Haha, but I think I can but anyway we have basically just been contacting this whole week because we dont have very many people to visit! anyway.

Everything is going good, and this change I'm gonna try to work with the members and the bishop a ton more to see if I can get help from him! But we had a good lesson with someone we contacted and actually was the original contact, but we have a lesson with them and I think she will get baptized! But we will see no promises, for sure. I love and miss you guys! OHHH we had a conference with the 70 evans and wow was that awesome. I loved every minute of it, but we had to wake up at freaking 5.... but definitely worth it. And after we had taco bell at the costanera centre!! love you!


what up?!?
