California Week Five - Check!

Well here I am again!! I'm running out of clever openings... Sorry!
1. Today is a letter writing day. Those of you who mailed letters...
you should be getting one sometime this week!
2. We got these new pass along cards that are for mormon.org. We even
get time to go and check the website out and so we can go to members
homes and help them create an account. All of you should check it out!
It is REALLY awesome!! Also, the website, boncom.com it has videos, tv
commercials and whatnot... pretty cool how creative the ads have
gotten and modern. People actually might check the website out now :]
3. We checked out a new part of our area to knock and it was HORSE
TOWN!! It smelled like a ranch and horses were EVERYWHERE!! IT was
kinda cool though..
4. That CD I told you about that time... the trek one. Anyway there is
a song on there that is really good, number 6 haahha it says in part
of it, "For every drop of pain that fell in my name, I'm forever
thankful." SO TRUE! The Atonement is such an amazing gift that we need
to take advantage of.
5. We got to do service for the Stapels! We cleaned their fridge...
it was nasty but it was great that we could help! They took us out to
lunch too so it was worth it :] We talked to Chuck about ever getting
baptize and he still just not into it but we shall see... He added mom
on FB hahaha
6. We got to have an FHE with a Less Active lady Iris and her 10 year
old son Daniel who is not baptized. He is SO great! And wants to come
to church but they have some things going on in the family that they
say are holding them back but we are working on it! We are going to
continue teaching them and hopefully they will make it to church :]
7. We went to the Salazar families for dinner and a lesson... well the
food was NASTY!!! But we were thankful for the meal and we got a
little bit more out of them of what they want from us coming to their
home... we will see how it works out...
8. Meet with the 81 year old Carrie...we might drop her... she don't
have a desire to learn anything but we will see we gave her a chapter
to read so we shall see if she reads and prays about it...
9. We companion got a "Sunburn" kinds of lyons from the store. She
puts them on and looks black hahaha
10. We got to go to a baptism for a man the elders have been teaching
in our area! He is AMAZING!! His name is Ricardo. He has read the book
of Mormon and the gospel principles book and it was so sweet hearing
from him and seeing his family their (not members but his wife is
starting o take the lessons) and so intent on what he was saying and
actually listening. We had 12 missionaries their all with
investigators... OH I JUST LOVE MISSIONARY WORK!!
11. Pictures will be coming soon... my SD card is being sent home so
you can check out the blog!
12. We went to a place to visit a less active man and we saw a
"visitors parking only" sign but it read, "Vistictors Parking Only"
hhahahah I took a picture
13. I LOVE being a missionary and bring the Gospel to people when they
opening their doors...

LOVE YOU ALL!!!
