HELLO

Sorry we didn't have Preparation Day on Monday like usual, because today we are going to the Redlands Temple. They moved our P-Day just for this week. Looks like you guys have been pretty busy and having fun at sooo many different places! We are still in a car for now, so I still get to wear my jacket when it does get cold but I've been doing very well regardless when it does get a little chilly. We were able to teach a couple lessons and actually get two investigators in this past week alone. Shows how much hard work and dedication can bring up great results when you are trying to put your best foot forward. Sounds like fun though that you guys are gonna have the missionaries over for dinner! For Thanksgiving I don't know what we are doing yet, but when I figure out the details I can let you know as soon as possible sometime in the future.

Me and Elder Olson have been trying to work with everything that we've been given and sometimes it results in just walking around all day when appointments fall through. I think being in a companionship helps out SOOO MUCH when it comes to work but also psychologically. We can help each other up no matter the circumstance and its super awesome to have someone right beside you. And its even a greater thought knowing that somebody above is looking out for us as well. Our two new investigators though are Arleen, who is in her 50s and said she was "feeling something different" when we came around and she is super awesome! And Isaiah who is 12 years old that he wanted to learn more about God.

This email is gonna have to be short, sadly, because I have even less time than last week. But hopefully I'll be able to prepare myself in the future for emails like this and just knock out all the emails I need to send out. But if you have any questions about something email me quick in the short time that I have!

Anyways I love you all and I keep you in my prayers!!

Hi Momma!

Yeah I am in a new area, and in a new apartment which is a lot nicer than the older one I stayed in, just has a lot more room (I forgot to take pictures which I promise to do that). It's just me and Elder de La Torre in this apartment. From what I can tell you Elder de La Torre is from Las Vegas, Nevada which is super close to our mission and it turns out he is actually a "trial missionary" and he might be staying in this mission or be called to somewhere else. His mom is a member and his father is currently investigating in the church so it's pretty cool. He loves music and played in a mariachi band for a little while and did orchestra so he is pretty awesome, and he speaks fluent spanish which helps when we run into a lot of spanish speaking people here in Ontario.  Yeah it is kind of crazy how fast time has flown by honestly, I feel like I've been here for awhile even though I haven't and even though the end is far away it seems to be coming up kind of qu...

A New Perspective Hence the title, I got new glasses since my old perscriptions were causing a bit of strain, but we are feeling better now and kicking into overdrive! Don't worry there will be a photo at the very end with the new glasses, don't get too excited yet you still have to drag through this email. But lets move on shall we. This past week... I'll be completely honest it has been a struggle here. Not going to lie, my hardest area yet since being in the mission field. My companion and I go straight to the mission office to make sure everything in the mission moves forward and everyone's jobs are easier... Then we go into our teaching area and try and find people. In my entire time here, its been 4 months now we have found only a couple people that would let us teach them. And they all dont want to meet anymore. Its been hard, but thats where faith comes in I guess. It tests you, your work ethic, your testimony, and just the faith to find one person who ...

Hello Mom and Dad!!

Glad to hear everyone is doing really well! What is actually funny is since I was still a little sick I called the mission nurse and she asked me who she just saw, and mentioned Mom dropping by with Sister Kerby's mom dropping off gifts so that caught me off guard. But that is super awesome that you took the time and love to give gifts to everyone! Time can fly by pretty quickly sometimes and other days it just seems to drag on for awhile but all together I've been out for more than 4 months now... Time really has just flew. And YES we do get to talk on Christmas using Skype, I recently got an email from my Mission President with information on rules and regulations. We get about 30-40 minutes at the maximum and I believe we'll be able to text your number with the member's phone or call ahead as we prepare to Skype (the Hannett Family offered their home for Skyping for us). But for everything pertaining to that on Christmas Day even though its supposed to be our Prepara...
