August 8th ,2011

Hola from burning California,

 

So its not really burning or super hot it just feels like that when your on your bike riding around. But I would trade that feeling for the world...... I take that back maybe a nice bottle of ice water that would be awesome.

 

So this week we had an amazing miracle happen. It was actually during a dinner which makes it all the better. So on Wednesday we when out to eat with one of our members Brother Seay. Every time we go out to dinner with him we always go to the same place for Chinese food. So as we drive there we pull in and its closed so we get a little sad.(not really but it adds dramatic effect to the story) Brother Seay remembers about another place in town that he hasn't eaten yet that someone told him he has to try so we go to this Mexican/ sea food restaurant and sit down to eat. Our server comes over and of course she is Hispanic so she comes and the first thing she say are "Usteds son Mormones Verdad?" (your the Mormons right?)  And i say " Si " Which means yes and she starts talking to us about how a year ago missionaries were coming by and then they (her and her husband)  moved to a new house and lost contact with the missionaries and so she asked if we could come by after she talked to her husband and so of course we say yes. So long story short we got her number and have been in contact with them, she works quite a bit and is going to call us soon so we can pass by. But it is just amazing how the Lord works, I know that it really can a miracle we found her and I know that Lilly (that's the girl) will have us come over soon. Oh and the food was great too.

 

Its just really amazing to see miracles happen all the time. I want to share more but we have to get going so ill shut if off here and talk about some of the stuff i didn't get to next week. Nothing really big happened this week, other then some conformations and alot of sweat. We have been working to the bone and it makes me feel really good.

 

I love you guys and thank you for all that you do for me. Remember why we are here and where we came from. If we can remember that we CAN NOT fail. We just have to remember and everything will work out. I love you!

Life is amazing !!

AUGUST 2nd, 2011

Hola Everyone,

 

Life is amazing, I cannot believe I'm here again. My new companions name is Elder Christian, he is from Baltimore. He was actually born in England and lived in canada as well before coming to the states so we have a common understanding of the world outside the US. He doesn't have an accent though. It is really fun to train again, it is really motivating me to continue to do my very best. Not going to lie, i am more tired then i have ever been on my entire mission....... And I am loving every second of it. Elder Christian and i just work like crazy all day everyday, its been amazing, we are going to baptize if it kills us. 

 

Its funny how your mind changes on your mission, I look back on how I used to think and the things i used to do and i wonder to myself why i wasted so much of my time doing basically nothing for 19 years.  But, its alright im different now and i have really come to understand repentance alot more on my mission. Its just awesome.

 

So the ward is happy to have me back and so are the old investigators I had when I was here that were still being taught. It has been great to see everyone, ion Sunday as my companion an I were introduced at ward council I was called "the recycled elder" Its funny because its true.

 

Well I have to get going because Prep. day is done in like 5 mins so I am going to wrap up here. The work is moving forward and i am happier then ever. I know this is the work of the lord, I can feel it and I will never be able to deny that I know this is true. I am grateful to proclaim his word. Speaking of which that's what im going to do now, so good bye.

 

I LOVE YOU !!!!!!!!
