HOLA FROM VENTURA CALIFORNIA!


Well there is a lot that I want to say! Too bad I only have an hour! but here we go... 

I got to the Mission on Monday,  I had dinner at the Mission Presidents house, President Felix, and we had a ton of connections! Monday night I slept at a member's house. Tuesday we had breakfast at the Mission president's house again and then we went off to transfer meeting! So my first Companion's name is Elder Davidson. He is from American Fork Utah and he is awesome! Glad that me and my first comp could be such good friends, it's a lot easier to focus on the work when you get along with your companion! We have 2 other companionship in our district, Elder Sorenson and Elder Barlow, Hermana Winn and Hermana Brown. The whole district is killer and they are all huge examples to me. Sadly almost every lesson we have I always look like a deer in the headlights because I still don't know any spanish, but it'll come, Poco a Poco. We have visited a lot of people and I am still trying to remember all of their names. But I have been kept busy tracting and visiting non-members and less actives. It is really fun to get to know all of these people. Even if i can't understand them most the time. The Spanish I can speak is pretty much limited to bearing my testimony and simple sentences, but I get by. The mission has been really fun though despite my lack of Spanish. I attended a baptism on Saturday, it was the other elders.  I have had amazing food from the members, and I have walked a lot and biked a lot as well! Sadly I forgot my camera, I would share some sweet pictures that I have but I guess that will have to wait till next week. And I am at emails at about 11:30-12:30 because that is our scheduled time at the family history center. AAAAAAAAANNNNDDD yeah... This is my first email out in the field so it might be a little lacking. But if anyone wants to send me a letter send it to this address...
