Week # 27 - Fontana (Sierra Ward), San Bernardino, CA Mission

Hey everyone!  Well, this week has been a great week! First of all we had Zone Conference which was tons of fun. It was long, but we were able to learn a little bit more about the new handbook and teaching about baptism. I also learned how to teach about baptism and the Gift of the Holy Ghost using Matthew 3:13-17. Those verses are very simple, but I never realized how many powerful truths they contain. The most awesome thing that happened this week was that one of the people we are teaching accepted a baptismal date and came to church this Sunday. We are so excited for him and happy to have someone on date. We are looking forward to working with him! Take care everyone and merry Christmas! 1. Our Zone Activity  2 & 3 photos in the apartment

Week #25 - San Bernardino (Rancho Ward), San Bernardino, CA, Mission

Well, this week has been busy. I did my second baptismal interview as a district leader. It went smoothly thankfully. It was pretty cool too because the person I interviewed told me that he was very grateful to me and that I had been an important part in his conversion which made very happy. Along with that, we had exchanges so I was with Elder Cressal for a day and we had a good time. I was pretty nervous because last time he wasn't really interested in working hard. However, he surprised me. He was talking with everyone on the street and we had some good conversations. I was really happy to see how much he had changed. Another highlight of the week is that we got to sing in the stake Christmas activity. It was fun and my companion was the angel Gabriel. He had a spotlight that shined on him and I got to turn it on. It blinded him and he almost fell off the ladder he was on! Thankfully, he didn't or else the week would have been even more interesting. Besides that, we ...

Hey Everyone! I hope everyone had a good Thanksgiving! I got plenty of food and cold weather. The most interesting thing that happened this week was that during the day of Thanksgiving it rained, the temperatures plunged, and the winds picked up. It snowed up a lot in the mountains too. From what I've been told, this is the earliest it snowed in a while. Despite the rain and the cold, we persevered and found some new people that were interested in our message. We found one person that was very interested in our message and she liked the idea of finding the truth through prayer. We are so excited to teach her this week! Elder Green
