New Mission President

This week was an interesting one.

We celebrated Elder Millano's Birthday. We said goodbye the The Hobbs. It was hard to see them go. We said hello to the Taylor's. We did some errands. We help President Taylor with transfers. We helped President Taylor figure out how to Mission President (really not that hard, but still fun). We introduced the entire mission to President and Sister Taylor. We celebrated Canada Day(Aho Kanata), ok well I did. We figured out the logistical process of transfers.  We took some old missionaries to the airport and picked some new missionaries up from the airport. We celebrated America Day oh sorry Fourth of July. I can never remember why they blow stuff up all night here...like why the 4th?.. why not the 14th? Why July? Why not September? I wish they would name their holidays about what is going on that day. hahahaha.

President and Sister Taylor are super cool. They are on top of everything we throw at them. It has been super cool to see them grow, even in the few short moments that they have been here. They have definitely been prepared for this. Nothing else crazy last week.

This week we start our exchange craziness all over again. It will be good to get out an work with the Zone Leaders again.

Tomorrow is the Day!

So not much I can say I only have a few minutes. But this week we finished our exchanges. I got to go back to Hesperia again. I love it up there... even if it is 116 F out side.

Tomorrow President and Sister Hobbs fly out and President and sister Taylor fly in. We are excited! Tomorrow is also Elder Millano's birthday so he keeps singing " for the first day of my birthday the mission president gave to me 1- - - - - - - -1 Mission to run!" ahahah  

We are super excited. Mom I think I told you this, but to every one else... Canada day is coming up, which means PARTY TIME! So for Canada Day I get to have a huge party with half of the mission. It is disguised as a "Meet the Taylors" thingy... but... lets be real... it is Canada Day! PARTY TIME!!!! hahah I mean " Yes good to see you" "Oh how is such and such area?" "oh really?! wow that is just wonderful!" "Keep the faith elder!"

Hope you are all well and fine. Enjoy your mild and gorgeous weather!

No rest.....weary or not!

So I seem to see a trend in my life.... busy... then Monday.... then busy until Monday again... It was a great week though.

Tuesday we didn't have the usual district meeting because we have zone conference this week as well (I'll get to that in a sec). So we exchanged with the zone leader in Victorville. I was with an Elder Wilhelm. We had a wonderful day talking with everyone we possibly could and handing out as much paper as people would take from us hahah.

Wednesday we exchanged again ( so I didn't see my companion for like 49 hours or something ridiculous.) this time I was in Ontario with an Elder Badoni. We also had a really good day.  He serves in a YSA Ward so that meant we got to drive all over for awhile. But still a really good day.

Then on Thursday we had  Zone conference. It was President and Sister Hobbs' last one. SO it was pretty emotional for them. The Spirit was so strong  and it was so good to hear from them one last time. We also got to teach Nio.

Friday was a more relaxed day, but definitely not a day of resting, we worked on things for President Taylor a lot and also weekly planned.

Saturday we exchanged again. I was again in Rancho. This time with Elder Spaulding. I served in Hesperia with him and we get to go home together. He is an Elder I will be looking up when I get home. He is awesome. Sadly we didn't get to teach anyone.

Even Sunday was as peaceful as it usually is. There was an Elder who needed to go home 2 weeks early for school ( summer school I guess). So we had to go split up a trio and then meet the departing Elder and his companion and switch people around so that everyone has a companion, so after church we just drove around the entire mission because we could really hahahah not really though we had very serious business to go about! hahah

Love you all and Happy Fathers day to all the Father and Uncles and Grandpa's out there!

Ofa Atu!
