Week 46

Sup?

I cant think of any more original intros to my emails haha

Monday was pretty dope, we were supposed to be inside by 6 cuz of crazy peeps but we were at bishops till 8:30 #islandtime

the fireworks were super crazy though, people went all out.

Tuesday d-meet was pretty bland, THelander and I dont particularly see eye to eye with our district leader and a lot of people were down the hill to get their greenies. Oh! Greenie in the house, his name is E. Hulterstrom from Provo Utah. He has said a total of 3 words while we are home haha. poor guy.

Thelander and I found an abandoned neighbourhood, which includes a hospital. Obvi we explored a  bit. Dont worry we were on lunch break, people were still invited unto Christ for the rest of the day. I'll attach some pics but they have inapprops graffiti in them so its up to my parents discretion of they include them.

Wednesday was a pretty basic day, we took Wilding and his greenie to walmart because they had just shown up the night before. Then we went out and taught some people!

Thursday was a really good day, started off with service then we were able to see a bunch of people in the afternoon. We taught Joseph again, he went on a rant about drinking water because we are in the desert heat and I flipped it into the Samarian woman at the well and the Gospel and Jesus giving us Living Water. #scripturemaster

We had dinner with the Escobars, they are super cool. We ended up talking about everyone in the ward, in a non-gossip way. It was more of a "how the heck is everyone related?" haha

oh and it was my birthday, lol. Thanks everyone who sent me anything!  Holidays on the mission are just like any other day haha

Friday wasnt super productive, we weekly planned and then were able to see only two people. A lot of peeps went down the hill to a family reunion or to Utah for a funeral. We tried by the Tuataga's and a bunch of the Samoan YSA were there so we talked with them for a bit. John Nunez is a convert of barely a year and has a super strong testimony its legit. He leaves for Missouri for some military thing this week. Gonna miss him :'(

Saturday was the best day of the week. We knew we needed more potentials in Adelanto so as we drove up to a less-actives we saw a bunch of ghetto peeps waving at us. We decided to talk to them and long story short we got two new gators Javon and Keyshawn! Javon is under house-arrest so we can visit him whenever! Hooray!!

We saw a bunch of other peeps in Adelanto before finishing off the day at the Tupai house.

Sunday was a basic church goin day. It went pretty well. We took the sacrament to some medically less-active Samoans. Dinner at Bishops, we talked about the ward family tree (its craaaaaazzzzyyyy). Then we went to the Saveas and they sang happy birthday to me and we ate cake!

This week was a lot of fun fam! Lemme know how yours went!
