Week of finding

 Hey everyone! This week was a crazy week as always and we worked really hard. Sorry about last week's email, I had no time and I accidentally deleted a lot of people but this is it!! Lots of teaching and finding this week. We ending up finding 15 people this week which was crazy. Our goal for the month was 13 and most here have a goal around 10. Super fun finding and teaching. Ramon that has a date is in Mexico and Angel and isabella they don't have a date yet because their mom won't let them right now. Kind of frustrating but we are working on it. We are teaching a lot of people and we have some other real potential. Someone named Gabriel is super interested and is taking like everything we say as truth and we found a 19 year old who hasnt heard about christ. Super excited and those are just a few. 


We went back to Pedro's house today and I won't go into detail but let's just say we won't be passing by again for safety reasons. We met someone who claimed to have seen Lazarus, the one that Jesus raised from the dead. Said he appeared to him and now he worships a statue of him and puts money on him to heal people. I guess it really works so that's awesome 😅😅. Super funny. We also were teaching a member this week who is from Mexico and he said that an angel appeared to him and then after he found a book and he memorized it. Idk what it is but he wrote it in his own book and can quote it whenever he wants. He is really cool though actually. Super sweet old man. 

We got a door slammed in our face so hard it shook the building this week too. I guess they weren't interested. We have new restrictions because of covid but it's tough to follow em exactly because we are really busy if that makes sense. Hopefully everyone is staying safe out there I heard there is another huge spike. I was able to give another blessing the last week as well which was awesome except it was in english and I was really sad because I wanted to try it in Spanish. It's ok thought I have already given one in Spanish but still. Darn it. Everything is going good though!! 

This week I started to read the new testament. Jesus christs life is pretty amazing and I was actually reading when Lazarus dies. Jesus comes and weeps with Mary and that is really cool. But after, he asks if she has belief in him. She says yes and Jesus asks her to move the stone to where Lazarus is buried. She doubts and Jesus repeats himself she had to move the stone. Only after was Jesus able to perform the miracle. Is there something that Jesus is telling us? What is our stone?? Super cool thought and I shared it with my companion and he ended up sharing it with the zone haha. Super cool. 

I think that's all and I love you all and hope you have a great week!! Thank you!!

  Hey!  Hows it going???  This week was a good week, as always. This week was actually really interesting to say the least haha. Had its ups and downs and some weird intereactions. BUT... We got transfers news!! I was informed that I will be Staying!! I will be getting a new companion as well named Elder Nunley! Funny thing is that Elder Nunley was companions with Elder Nelson, (who I trained), in the Mtc! Elder Nunley was also trained by Elder Larsen who was in the trio with me in my first companionship!! Elder Larsen is for real the best so I am excited to get his trainee. We have transfers  this tuesday  so I will let you know next week what is up. I was also asked to be the Spanish Elder Training Leader. I will miss Elder Krenkel for sure. We really enjoyed the area together. Elder Krenkel is actually going to Camarillo where I just was! This area is really just chosen of the Lord and when you are out and about, you see it. Everyone is still progressing real...

  Hey everyone!!! Excuse my punctuation and grammar this email because I am typing on my phone and it doesn't function sometimes soooooo haha. This week, super busy once again because you know me and my companion!!! Super good week packed of work. Ill start with some of our friends. Angel and Isabella they went to their dads house in san diego so we could not put them on date but we still are close. We took a hit this week because lots of people are leaving for christmas. Ramon is leaving the 5th as you know and not coming back for a month which sucks but it's ok. Transfers are really really close too. This is the last week of the transfer. Yea crazy I know.

  Hey!  Hows it going?? This week was a good week, as always We got a lot done and a lot happened this week again. I will jump into it and talk about Gabriela. She finally got out of Quarantine, like I think I mentioned last time, and we called and set up a visit! The next day we got fellowship figured out for her and did our best to work through the rule of 3 and driving and availability. We were going to give her a church tour, even though it would have been a little weird because we meet in the tiny room in the back ahah. We set everything up... and she got hospitalized again. She had problems with her stomach and she got hospitalized. I don't know what is going on.  Miracle came out of that... kind of. A member was able to bring their family some food again so that was awesome. We also got a call from the mission office saying that Elder Nelly had a package he needed to get from the mission office because it was his birthday!! So since the visit fell we were able...
