This week was wondrous!! There were SO many Christmas miracles. It was a wonderful week; full of rejoicing, gladness, and peace. It is my hope that it was the same for everybody else!     Our week commenced with more transfer planning. Transfers are in!! I'll be staying here for another transfer. I'm so glad because there is a lot of work to be done! We're teaching some pretty promising people at the moment. Monday evening we met with Gordy and taught him the restoration. He was quiet and listened intently. He asked some great questions. We again extended the baptismal invitation. His answer was perfect! "I'll read the book first". It was such an incredible lesson. We'll be seeing him this week!     We got a text yesterday from our investigator, Justin! He's a senior in high school. He said, "hey I read the chapter that you told me to read, can we meet soon?". Ummmm YES!! We're seeing him this evening.      We had our Mission Christmas Pa...

I love this time of year so much!!! There is so much rejoicing and gladness. I couldn't be happier!!     This week was incredible!! We've been ridiculously busy. It's been a blast. On Tuesday we went on exchanges with the Menlo Park ZL's up in Palo Alto. Elder Tucker came down to Almaden with me while Elder Cusworth went up there. We had a BOMB day!! We taught 4 lessons which is super good for our area.      Exchanges bring miracles!! During exchanges we taught our new investigator, Justin Sun. We ended up teaching him, his best friend, and his sister!! Three non-member teenagers in one lesson! I love when that happens. One of our laurels who is friends with Justin was also present. We all sat around a table and talked about the nature of God. They consider themselves agnostic or atheist so we taught the basics. The spirit was strong. They opened up a lot and shared experiencias. Justin said he is willing to read the bible and Book of Mormon and would like to me...

What's going on everybody! I hope you're all enjoying this wonderful season of gratitude and joy!     This week has been pretty nuts. We had Zone Conferences Monday-Friday. Elder Cusworth and I traveled the mission with President Mella visiting all the zones in the mission. It was so much fun! I loved getting to see all the missionaries and learning from them all. I love them so much! This mission has some pretty fantastic missionaries. We had our Ward Christmas party on Saturday! It was an awesome turn out. There were tons of non members that we talked to and got to meet. After the party we went to contact a media referral that we received the day prior. He's a senior in high school and considers himself agnostic but he wants to learn! So we're super stoked to teach him! We're going by tomorrow.     On Saturday I had the privilege of giving a Spanish baptismal interview! It made my whole day to talk to one of my Latino brothers in the language of the heavens. I mi...

What's happenin' friends and family!!      We had a superb week! We had a lot of time to do work in our own area so that's always great! We had splits Thursday evening. I had the honor of having President Mella come along with me to a lesson while Elder Cusworth went with a member of the bishopric. We had a lot of success! I learn so much from my mission president, I love spending time with him. We helped him and Sister Mella put up Christmas lights around their house this morning and then they took us out to lunch. President always calls us "his boys". It's such a wonderful privilege to be able to be a part of his family for a bit.      We didn't get in contact with Bill this week:/ but we will keep trying! We will try our best to meet up with him this week as long as Taylore! She is still super interested and wants to come to church but she's always super busy with work and dance. Pray for them!! They will get baptized! I know it!     The missio...
