Emergency Transfer!

  Monday January 25, 2021 Hey what's up everybody!! How's life treating you guys?? Everything is going fantastic with me over here! Although I have some exciting news!! Ocotillo ward is popping!! I love that place, BUT I got a call on Tuesday from President and he told me I will be getting Emergency Transferred out to a new English area!! When he told me this he told me I would be going Thursday, so as I am writing this email I have already been in the new area for about 4 days. Anyways one of the Spanish Elders went home early this transfer, so that opened up a spot for President to put a new Elder in there who hasn't gone Spanish yet. So he put an English Elder into the Spanish  area and he needed someone to replace him in English, so that would be me! I'm sad to leave Ocotillo because I love everyone there and they were super cool. My last night I was there we actually put Daray on date for baptism!! We put him on date for the 30th of January. I'm super pumped fo...

 Monday January 18, 2021 Hello everyone!! I hope your week is going great! My week has been fabulous. The Vargas family that randomly came to Church last week are doing great! We had 2 lessons with them this week and they are so eager to learn! They read the Book of Mormon a lot and are so prepared. They have a few Word of Wisdom problems but I don't think they will have any trouble with that. They also have told us that they are planning on getting married, but they want it to be a memorable event so they want to plan well. They are so ready to partake in this gospel and it's actually crazy. They basically are members already. They are the nicest and most sincere people you will ever meet.  Another miracle happened this week!! Another non member just walked into Church!! It's actually crazy the miracles and blessings God is giving us here. So yesterday we had dinner with a family, and the non member that walked into church was there!! He is the Boyfriend of the daughter. W...

A God of Miracles!!

 Monday January 11, 2021 Hey everyone how's it goin! Things over here are going super good. Transfers are tomorrow! Me, Elder Hawes, and Elder Pulsipher are staying together for another 6 weeks! It will be super fun. Elder Leakehe is going home tomorrow. RIP to my trainer he is now in the land of infinite P-days.  With the people we are teaching we have a few more names. We are still teaching Daray and Deanna and Angela. All three of them are looking good we just need to teach them a little bit more. We are teaching a few others that look promising but getting in contact with them is the struggle as of right now.  MIRACLE TIMMEEE.  So yesterday was Sunday and we were at Church. We were greeting everyone while they come in and doing our usual thing. One family comes in that we don't recognize but they looked super nice so we assumed they were members and just visiting. Anyways we had a great service and the spirit was super strong. Then after the meeting we are t...

Happy 2021!!

 Monday January 4, 2021 Hey everybody what's up! How was everyone's new years? Hopefully you all shot a bunch of fireworks and did some cool stuff. We had to be in by 9 on new years eve so we didn't do much.  Sarah is doing great and we are getting her some friends in the Ward so that is good! We are still working with her son Daray and he should be getting baptized pretty soon. Everyone we are teaching or trying to teach is getting covid hahah. So it's kind of hard but it's ok we are finding ways to teach. We are working a lot with less actives because that's the push from our mission president. We are working with some others named Deanna and her daughter Angela. They are pretty much ready for baptism we just need to set a date. Then we are working with a few other people but they're going a little slower so you'll hear of more people soon probably. On Friday our President allowed us to go on a hike with our Zone. So we did a hike from 10-2 at a hike c...
