Hey everyone! Hope everyone had a good week! This week was really good. We found some cool people and put one of our recent converts cousins on date! His name is Kai! We also had a great week on base and should have some baptisms coming up in the next few weeks. Yesterday at church we had to go on a mini exchange because one of our district leaders needed me to do a baptismal interview for one of their friends. Their friend is awesome and passed the interview. I walked back to elders quorum with the district leader and went to switch back. The Elders quorum met in the overflow room and had created a circle but had pushed all of the chairs to the back of the room so there was no way of getting through. Sadly the missionary I was exchanging with was on the opposite side of the room. He got up and went to the back of the room and saw all the chairs. We stared at each other, confused on how we were going to get through. I started sliding chairs and stacking them. There was one guy sitting ...

Hey everyone! Hope you all had a great week! This week was great for me! We taught a lot and we found some cool people too. We had a recruit get baptized on base yesterday, which was super fun. We also put our other friend Michael on date for July 14th! This week I reached out to one of my recent converts that I helped baptize in Oceanside at the first of the year. Her name is Sam and she is super cool. She messaged back and told me how she was. We messaged back and forth and then I found out that she and her husband just moved to our apartment complex! We set up a time to meet up with her and her husband at the dog park at the complex because she wanted me to meet their new dog. So later in the week we met up there and it was so good to see her and her husband. I was playing with their puppy and he was so cute, but their was a labradoodle that was massive also in the dog park. As I was trying to play with Sam's dog I was getting pushed around by this labradoodle. Not sure what the...

Hey everyone! Hope you all had a great week! This week our friend Hector got baptized and our friends Young and AJ that were baptized last week, got the priesthood the same night as Hectors baptism. We also had transfers, and Elder Anderson went home. My new comps name is Elder Ellis and he is awesome! This past week me and my comp had to go to the public library in Escondido to use the computers to plan a training that we were giving. Now, I love San Diego County but let's just say that you meet a lot of interesting people down here. As I was walking in, there was a homeless lady using one of the computers. She looked at me and I smiled and waved at her, and she then proceeded to flip me off for a solid ten seconds. Her finger followed me as I walked in, all the way until I sat down at the computer a few chairs down from her. She then turned back to her own computer and started yelling "Nicholas Cage is in the cave!!!" To my surprise the librarian didn't even give a ...

Hey everyone! Hope your week was good! This week was crazy, we had two baptisms! Our friend Young got baptized on Wednesday and our friend AJ got baptized on Saturday. I'm so grateful that the Lord allows me to be apart of the greatest work on earth!  This past week we helped move some filing cabinets for the stake building coordinator and they were filled to the brim with paper, so they were so heavy. Luckily they had a dolly, but it was the shortest dolly I've ever seen. I swear I saw the munchkins in the wizard of oz use that dolly. Because it was so short, all of the top weight was on my forearms. We were moving them from one room to another, so I would just grit my teeth and wheel the cabinet to the other room. I was so close to putting it down when this lady comes in and says "Wait one second! This will be really quick!" She then went and got a broom and swept the floor which was fine but then she said she needed to do one more thing. She then spent the next thr...
