Week 74: Hey y'all


This past week was really good!

We had Christmas and it was awesome! Of course we ate a lot of food 🤣 .

The rest of the week was good, we had a training visit and I went with Elder Bengtzen and it was a good day! 

While walking down the street we saw a guy raking his leaves and when we asked if we could help he said we could come back next week to help him paint so we have more service!!

We have been running low on miles so this week has been kind of a slower one haha and I don't have a whole lot to say. 

Merry Christmas again and I hope you all have a happy new year!!!

Week 72: Hey y'all!


This last week was awesome!! We had our Christmas conference! We got to play a lot of fun games and we heard from Karl Anderson. He does tours at the Kirtland temple and he is a spiritual giant!! He wrote a book called "The Savior in Kirtland".   

More exciting news!! We got district activities back!!!! So we have our first one today and we will be watching the fighting preacher, it is a really good movie!! Y'all should watch it!!!!

Yesterday we made some gingerbread houses with a family in the branch.... A lot of my pieces were broken so I couldn't really make my house so I made a church haha..... Please don't judge me.. 

Anyway the work here has slowed because of winter, but we have really found some quality people!!
Ruud Castillo is still awesome and progressing really well!!

Week 71: Hey y'all


So this last week we did a lot of service again!

We helped out a guy we are teaching who owns a military store, he is remodeling the back room that used to belong to a construction company.  So we helped him take down a model wall, they built it like an actual wall, so it was a lot of fun.

And for our service he let us take some MREs that were really good!!

The rest of our week was mostly finding and not really a lot to report on.. 

So ya haha I guess I'll talk to you all next week.
