So this was the first week of transfer three, as of this transfer I am the comp that Elder Jennings will ever be with for more than 2 transfers (he only has 2 left after this one. It was a pretty slow week so this may not be super entertaining but here goes.
Monday was basic p-day, we went to Costco and saw a tonne of members there which was cool. Nothing really happened, p-day activities and YSA fhe.
Tuesday we had a lesson cancel on us so we had extra time for dinner with a member who we never get to see, he took us to get vietnamese food and I am pretty sure we left the mission boundaries... whoops. anyway we ended up stuck in traffic and we were 40 minutes late for our lesson with Daisy but she said it was okay, our branch mission leader Eduardo was there and they just talked about baptism and stuff until we got there, btw she changed her date to December 19th which is awesome!
Wednesday we had service and then we went to look up referals on the computers in our apt complex when they closed the office because of the shooting in San Bernadino (its like 30-50 minutes away) and we were told by the ZL's to stay inside unless we have set appointments so we watched Joseph the King of Dreams or whatever its called. Pretty much the worst soundtrack to a movie ever but at least it isnt the District tv show haha.
Thursday we didn't have any appointments really so we tried to contact lost LA's and ended up trying to help some random dude with his car, long story short he is crazy, I honestly dont even know how I would put it into words but he pretty much explained LDS missionary work to us and then asked us if we were JW's soooooo, yea.
Friday was weekly planning so its always a drag, but we got to teach a LA who is really struggling with understanding doctrine, its gonna be a struggle to help them out. Their first language is spanish but they cant read spanish, and their second language is english and they can barely read english, so we are really trying to teach simply. Its a great learning opportunity for us though, I guess.
Saturday was pretty basic apart from the fact that we had brekkie with Santa! but yea there was a ward party in the morning and we went because #freefood also there was a lot of LA's that we were able to see which was nice.
Sunday was another basic YSA awkward testimony Sunday, I don't even want to talk about it haha. But we were able to watch the Christmas devotional and then we had dinner at the Chase's house with the whole branch which was cool.
That's pretty much my week.
Give my love to the Bishops.
Love you guys!
Elder Ockey
