Full Moon

Hey everyone!! Sorry I didn't send out an email last week. I was pretty busy on the links for my birthday. Thanks for all the love I received on my birthday you all are the best! But yeah it has been raining for two straight weeks. California has been pulling our legs this entire time because there us no way they are in a drought haha. I'm not complaining because I actually have been able to use my rain jacket. We got transfer news and Elder Larson is getting transferred but I'm staying and District leading and training a new missionary! I'm so hyped to train!


This week I went on an exchange with Elder Burton. It has been this continuing joke for the past three months that everytime I go into their area for an exchange we stop by this guy named Bill. He has an amazing testimony but he is one of the laziest people that I have ever met and it is like pulling teeth to get him to open his Scriptures haha. Everytime we leave his house I am physically drained because his laziness is contagious. So we went over for the 5th or 6th time and were trying to get him to read Ether 12. We finally got him to stand up and go get his Scriptures but the joke was on us. His pants were sagging so bad that he fully mooned us. When he stood up all Elder Burton said was "Oh" and we both just started dying. But we got him to read Ether 12. It wasn't pretty but we hot the job done.


This weeks spiritual thought comes from Isaiah 55:12


"12 For ye shall go out with joy, and be led forth with peace: the mountains and the hills shall break forth before you into singing, and all the trees of the field shall clap their hands."
I know that if we keep Jesus Christ at the center of our lives, the world around us will become more and more beautiful. I know that Jesus Christ Lives.
Love you all!

We're Gonna Need A Bigger Pole

Hey everyone! This week went by quick. Some cool things happened this week where 80 marines showed up to church yesterday and it was such a cool experience to be able to teach so many of them. We also put our friend Francisco, whose a marine, on date for baptism for December 9th. Our friend Isaiah is still solid and is getting baptized this Saturday. He shared with me that sometimes he doesn't want to come to church but he goes anyways, and he feels this peace that he has never felt before and he said that he knows that this church is true.  We usually do our calls and text on the San Clemente Pier, because it right by our apartment, and there are a lot of people fishing off the pier. So one night we were at the pier doing some phone calls and all of a sudden there's this teenaged kid running up and down the pier being drug by his pole. He was screaming for help from the lobster people. He was yelling "Lobster people, help! I've got a huge lobster!" The pole kept ...

Hey everyone! Hope your week was good! This week was crazy for me. We took our recent convert Rick to the hospital because he has an infection in his arm and it blew up like a balloon. His arm looked like the Pillsbury dough boy. Also, we found some really cool people who have been able to find out the Book of Mormon is true by themselves! Also yesterday an old friend that hasn't met with the missionaries in a little bit, met with us yesterday and said that she wants to get baptized! Her name is Sherry and her date is October 21st. Overall good week. This week I went on an exchange into a bike area. It is actually pretty fun being on bikes because it's good to get your blood pumping. I also learned how to ride with no hands during the exchange. But we were riding along the street and I stopped to talk to these people and I stepped off my bike pedal to stable myself. What I quickly found out that it was a 6 inch drop off into some bushes. I have started to develope a habit of sa...

Out Of Place

Hey everyone! Hope your week was great. This week was a blur for me. Halloween came and went pretty fast and now it has already almost been a week. This week we had a halloween party for the YSA ward, we had MLC the day after, and went on an exchange with some Elders that are on bikes but the members gave them Ebikes, so overall pretty good week. Like I said, we had a Halloween party with the YSA ward. We weren't going to dress up, but the Sisters also serving in the ward said that everyone was dressing up and you need to dress up or else you will be lame. So we went to every halloween store near us during our dinner hour frantically searching for a costume to buy. We went to TJ Maxx and found some onesies. I got a Grinch one and my compainion got a minion. We bought them and went over to the church. When we got there I couldn't help but notice that everone else's definition of dressing up was a little different than me. Everyone else was dressed up in regular clothes with ...
