Day 21 - We went to this place in Ventura with a cross statue, stood on a ledge, and jumped and said "I commit" to being a missionary....fun stuff. Met my new companion, Sister Dyer she's the bomb!
I lucked out! We get along so well! We're in Atascadero, a small town in Cali that looks the exact opposite of how Cali should look. Nights are sketchy, but I love it! The members are the best! But still I love my home ward #quailcrossing. Oh, and its pretty cold at night! We went to A's, she is getting baptized on Saturday, love her already!
Day 22 - We worked out with the Elders...They're strange... Then we went and did service for a women who's a potential investigator, she has the coolest yard. She sculpts everything she decorates with. I'll take pics next time. We went shopping, then to the relief society, they taught how to make rolls. (my moms are still the best)
Day 23 - This is a new strange life, but I can't get enough of it! (probably good cuz #17moremonthsleft) IT POURED TODAY! We got soaked, so we dried our shirts with a car heater. It was like 58* Which wasn't bad for Utah weather, but not Cali. We ran into someone who we have higher hopes for. He could be my first real investigator! We got 7-11 hot chocolate today cuz #1 it rained, #2 Sister Dye's 9 months.
Day 24 Not much today, got a few door slam but thats the life. (sometimes agency sucks) We taught an investigator. He's read the bible, B of M, D & C, Pearl of Great Price, our search for happiness, and is now reading Jesus the Christ, Phew, Thanks a lot!
Day 25 - Our investigator got baptized! Yes I am aware I'm only on week 1. Her non-member parents and husband both came! WIN! We saw a less active member and she was glad to see us. The we ran into JW and we talked to him about the plan of Salvation. Then we had a ward Trunk-or-Treat and we all switched name tags for our costumes. Also a non-member and investigator came, YAY!
Day 26 - We had church & 2 dinners! Yes our ward rocks. We taught 2 lessons, 1 on the plan and one on CPR Church, Pray, Read.
Day 27 - Halloween. Happy Halloween! today was also P-day. We woke up and did laundry, worked out, cleaned the apartment, studied and cleaned the car all before 10 am. New record! We went to the store and bought a flash drive to store mormon messages, pics and whatever else. Exciting, I know.
We only get 1 hour to email so it was tough to reply to everyone. We then played basketball with the Elders. I schooled them. Then at 3 we had to work (cuz p-day ended early because of halloween) We knocked doors. #party at 6:00 we had dinner and played dominos. Then we had to be back by 7:00 because of halloween. We put candy out because we can't open our door, and because we don't want junk food. OH and no one would talk to us today (BOO) and a cat followed us around for 45 minutes ...so I knelt on the grass and taught the cat about Jesus Christ & his gospel, book of mormon. Funny thing...he sat down and paid attention! He kept putting his paw on the pic of Jesus! This cat is the ideal investigator.
Love you and miss you all!
