One year and a Change!

 Hey!! Hows it goin??


This week was a good week, as always. 


I wanted to start off by saying that this week, I officially hit 1 year of being on a mission. I would never trade this for the world. I left a lot of stuff back home that may not be there when i come back but I know that the lord is with me and loves me and that this is where I need to be. I have grown so much and learned so many amazing things and principles I want to live by forever.


Speaking of principles... the Church has updated its missionary standards for diciples of Jesus Christ and they have gotten rid of many policies and put in place a principle on communication with friends back home. Basically speaking, I can now comunicate more openly with others back home! If you would like specific details reach out to me and I will let you know. Many things have changed and it is pretty crazy. 


This week was a good week! We found a couple new people that I am really excited for. We met a man and he asked us to teach him on the street, so we sat down and taught him! Super cool and he was super nice and I see him progressing a lot so I am excited. The rest of our friends are still being passed off and many are having troubles. Just have to have faith in the Lords plan


The branch is still having a hard time. Many fights and disagreements and bad conflicts. No one showed up to this last sports night and things are taking a toll with the members. For my year mark though we went to a super nice italian place and then hermano pacheco took us out to michuacana!! Super fun!


This week on... WhAt wE cOOKinG??

This week on the list we have...

Soft creamy homemade 3 cheese macaroni and cheese. thats all i need to say

next we have, fish tacos and some homemade chips! Super good like last time


Well I think thats about all I have for today. Thank you for all of your support and love! Hope all is well, if you have any questions, let me know!!


Oh I also caught a fish this morning!

  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. So i might move and get a new companion but i hope i stay with Elder Skinner. We are working really hard and have found some awesome people this week.   We did service for a hoarder today and oh boy was that rough haha. Stuff everywhere and dust and oh my gosh so bad. We tried but she wanted to keep every little thing like...

  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...
