Face masks and a Baptism!

June 5-12

Monday: Today was super fun!  We did your average p-day activities such as laundry, shopping, putting gas in the car, etc. Then for our district activity we went to the church and played more sports.  (If you can't tell the elders are always in charge😊) Then 2 elders came up to us and asked where the facemarks were.   (we suggested that everyone did a facemark as a joke, but yes, we still brought them in case)  We told them we weren't serious about them, but they insisted SO we they all (6) played down in a row and we put face masks on them. THEY LOVED IT! lol.  We died laughing!  We didn't even of one, we had to take pics!

Tuesday:  We had lunch with a member at the Habit, that's everyones favorite place to take us, haha.  Then we had a lesson with a less active member and showed her "The Music of the Gospel" mormon message.  Nothing else happened. 

Wednesday:  Today we tried to track some people down, then we had a lesson with a returning member, his name is Chris, he's super awesome.  It was so cool, he came back to church this Sunday! We shared the story called "The Gift Uneaten" Its a really cool story about the Atonement of Jesus Christ #lookitup

Thursday:  Again, nothing too crazy.  We just planned for our upcoming week and tried to of find people to teach.  

Friday:  We had a district meeting and it was the Clarks (SR couple) last time because they're going home on Tuesday.  So they took everyone to lunch at a place called Freeboards, then we had a discussion on the talk "Certain Women" from general conference.  After, we were waling around Isla Vista and handed out a few copies of the Book of Mormon.  Then we talk to a homeless man and bought him a subway sandwich and talked with him for about an hour.  Then off to find more souls to teach.  

Saturday:  NICK GOT BAPTISED! And we got permission to go!  So we spent the day in Westlake/Thousand Oaks, with all my favorite people!  Nick was seriously glowing.  He was SO surprised that I was there that he cried.  It was super cute.  The Golden Chicken Nugget is official baked.  He fits right into the ward and LOVES the gospel so much.  

Sunday:  Today was so good too!  We had an amazing lesson with our investigator J Michael, and....set him with a baptismal date of September 24, 2017.  (he picked the date)  We covered SO MUCH it was cool!  God truly is preparing people each and every day! I am so grateful that I get to be a missionary and help God in this work!
