La Lluvia de Ventura

 Hey! Hows it goin?? 

This week was a good week, as always. 

This week was my first week in Ventura and it is weird being here in some aspects. I started my mission not to far from ventura in the same Zone so I used to do all my shopping and things ventura because I was in a small Town. When I got here, I did what I usually do and I wiped the apartament clean of trash ahah. There was so much trash and random things but then we found a huge Christmas tree!! Super fun and the apartment is super nice so it is going to be good. The área is amazing, set up visits with the Bishop and relief society president and Elders Quorum President and got lots of good info! There is a place called the Avenue which is full of so many people it is crazy. I would say one of the best áreas in the mission. 

My comp is Elder Williams and he is in his Second transfer and is from South jordán! He is super cool and fun and we get along great. I got here and they combine 2 áreas so we cover a huge área again which is crazy. There is so much potential here it is amazing. There is definitely lots of cleaning up to do in the area here so lots of filtering of friends already being taught and going over some básic principles of the gospel. We have some amazing friends, and some part Member families who are really cool and I see so much potential. 

We have been extremely Blessed with food from Members and free taco truck food and also our friends and it has been amazing to me. I got to try shark and sword fish. The lord has done a lot of preparing and I am praying that I can be an instrument in his hand. I have felt his spirit guíde me to people who are ready and we have ran into some interesting people who were being taught and had some interesting conversations. Karla is one of our friends who is super awesome and comes to church and is super awesome, Angel and Jaime are super cool and they have 2 daughters and love what we teach and are now praying as a family which is so cool! Please Pray for them! Also Elder Holland is coming to only my area this friday so thats cool. Hopefully I get to go to his devotional!
We got to give a blessing to a member in the hospital yesterday as well for some really tough trials she is going through. Im grateful for the priesthood.

  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...
