Hey B_CREW!!
I am so excited to share this week with you guys!! it has been a really good week! and i cant wait to tell you what is going on!!!
Monday was so much fun! P-Day is always such a great day to prepare for the week! We stopped by at least 3 of our investigators and they were all home! it was such a good day!
Tuesday was so great!! Zone Conference was one of my favorite days so far on the mission! i got so much revelation that day!! I love being able to get so much inspiration for our investigators!! i went to the zone conference with a few questions and they all got answered, it was great!! I know for sure that the Book of Mormon truly is another testament of Jesus Christ! It was so great to see some familiar faces from Fillmore! Elder Jones and Elder James are doing great! it was nice to see them again. they are the greatest.
Wednesday we went out and got quite a few Declarations! it was such a great time! i love being able to share the gospel to someone that might be looking for it in their own lives! it is so great to go out and find someone that is so prepared for the gospel in their lives! and i love being able to see miracles every day!
Thursday went great we had a little quick lesson with a recent convert named Joel! it went very good! he is doing so good and loves talking with us, and when he does he tells us stories.. a lot of stories! But today we also got a lot of Declarations! me and Elder Griffin had a great day!
Friday was weekly planning! it was a good time talking and planning with Elder Griffin! Things are going good in the area and we are trying to focus on finding some new investigators this week so we will be working pretty Hard!
Saturday we had an exchange with our District Leader, i was on the Exchange with Elder Parrish, he came in with me from the CCM in Mexico City so it was such a good day to work with him. we had a great day, i tried to focus on Diligence during our exchange, and just always enjoying the work of the lord! it was such a great day! Then the branch had a little party for a members birthday so we had dinner at the church and it went great! anyways so about Elder Parrish He is from Brigham City! and we got talking about some stuff over our Exchange and get this! he would go hunting up Mink Creek because his grandpa used to own the land up there. So where we go sledding in that little parking lot, that used to be his grandpas land!! and his grandpa runs the little cemetery in Fair view! where the dirt bike track is!! he said he would always drive through lewiston too so he basically knows where i live!! and his grandparents live in Preston and i told that mine do too! and we might think that they live by each other!! haha Crazy!
Sunday went great too. Maria did not show up to church, we had a rough week with her she was never home during the week so we dont know what happened, we even tryed calling her too, so, all we can do is keep her in our prayers. Our recent convert Joel brought one of his friends to church too so that was a little miracle for the day!
So that is whats up in Santa Barbara!! i got nate a birthday card today so he will be getting that pretty soon!
So some crazy news that i have. when we had our Zone Conference on Tuesday, President Castro spoke to us and said that next month on April 19th a member of the quorum of the 12 Apostles will be visiting our mission!! and today i found out who it is!! Elder Russell M. Nelson!!
I am so excited for him to come! all the missionaries get to meet him!!!! oh yeah!!
