May 7, 2018 
We spent a lot of time trying to find people to teach this week. We made a goal to finish tracting one of the longest streets in our area by the end of the transfer. We thought we were not going to finish it but we did. We gave out 6 Book of Mormons this week, which is more than we have done before, but we did not find any new investigators.

We went to the Mormon Battalion this week. Everyone who finished being trained and all the trainers got to go. It is outside of our mission, but not too far away. We all went to a Mexican Buffet before going. It was yummy, but I ate too much.  It was fun to learn more of the history of the Mormon Battalion and all the service they did in California. The told us that we could invite our investigators to go to the Mormon Battalion, so we grabbed some fliers and invited Josie's family to go. It sounds like they might go. 

The big news for this week is that we got transfer calls. Sister Walters is going to San Marcos which is in a ward right next to our ward, but in a different stake. I will be getting a different companion Sister Henrie. I will tell you more about her once I meet her. Also both the Elders in the ward were transferred out without replacements. So we are no longer ward sharing and will cover the entire ward. This will make us more busy. The Elders Quorem President gave us a pretty big list of people he wants us to visit on the other side of the ward, which we will start working on once the Elders leave.

July 21, 2019- COMPLETING MISSION-WHAT I HAVE LEARNED! Next week I will complete my 18 month mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. As a full time representative of the Lord I have learned and gained a lot of new experiences. This post is a list of 18 things that I have learned during the past 18 months. 1. Jesus Christ is a real person with a real personality just like any of us. I knew and accepted Jesus Christ as my Savior before my mission. I have come to learn that yes he is perfect, but he is also understanding, compassionate, joyful, patient, and human. I understand, know and love Him better.  3 Nephi 27:27 "Therefore, what manner of men ought ye to be? Verily I say unto you, even as I am." 3 Nephi 27:27 John 11:36 "Jesus wept" 2. Repentance. I have learned how to more fully access the healing power of the Atonement of Jesus Christ.  "Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him str...

New companion and area

May 27, 2019 ELLAINA Last Monday we sent Sister Rigby home and said goodbye to the Calavera ward. I then packed and got ready to come to Morgan Hill. A member drove me up to the new area. I was expecting my companion to already be here, but no one could be her companion in the time that she waited in Temecula so she was still in her old area. The member that drove me stayed until she got here. We did not really know what to do the first day because the area book on our phones did not update to the new area until the second day. So we mostly cleaned the apartment and talked. We then got the area book and have been able to work and figure out were our area is. It is one really big hill that is hard to bike up, but is fun to bike down. So it is easier on the way home.  We are starting to figure out were everything is and who we are working with. It was pretty confusing at first. We went to mutual and meet the ward mission leader and some people in the ward. It is a pretty big ward ...
