8.21.17 week 33

crazy week. so i finished the book of mormon in 1 transfer! i made that a goal and i am so happy i was able to have that experience. i already starting reading if for the 3rd time on my mission!

so im training, again! ill get my new companion straight out of the mtc tomorrow afternoon. im excited to learn new things from her and have a fresh view of the area and the mission. 

there have been a lot of missionary homecomings in the wards around here in the past month. lots of member missionary work going on from them, not so much from the rest of the ward but we are working on it!

i have been working on being charitable. it has been going well. as missioanries we are supoosed to be bold and loving as week teach. most missionaries have trouble being bold but i gotta work on the loving part haha! ive seen a difference this week and im grateful for the lord helping me in this

my first week in glendora has been super successful, all because of our faith!!! when i came into this area, they werent having much success. all because of faith in the lord that he will keep his promises, we set a new baptismal date and found 7 new investigstors! i have a big testimony if we put our trust in the lord, simple have faith, and get out and work, we will have success. by faith we can bring about miracles

but i was sad to say goodbye to my baby :(

this was literally the best week ever lol

first of all, its the fourth of july and my 6 month mark so we went on a hike with some elders in the zone. it was so beautiful and fun to see the land of the free we are blessed to live in. 

earlier this week we hadnt been having as much success finding as we had liked, we were finding 2 maybe 3 new investigators a week. after we set the goal to find at least 1 new investigator a day, that night we found 4!! the following days we have just kept finding until sunday night. it was 8pm and we hadnt found anyone. we were both like, yknow what... we ARE going to find a new investigstor tonight. an hour later, we had 2 new investigators. the lord is defiently on our side and will help us accomplish anything we put our mind to, as long as we have that earnest desire and we "get off the couch" like a great missionary once told me (ky graham). the lord provides a way!! i have had a lot of those testimony strenghtening experiences this week. this whole week we found 9 new investigators, we were told by our district leader that this area (sunland) hasnt seen a big number of new investigstors since last july, when they found 6.

we have a baptism saturday! gabriel and dillon are so hyped. i think we may be more hyped though. i love these kids, they are both 8 and probably know more about the gospel then a lot of people at our church lolz. sister bullock and i went down to glendale today to buy them both new church shirts, they only have 1 each. we hope they like them on saturday!!

i (attempted to) save a baby bird at the church this week

we met the new mission president and his wife yesterday! president and sister wells. its gonna be a great year with them. im excited to get to know them more and we are inviting them to the baptism saturday!

its going to be another amazing week, yall be careful tonight!
