September 10, 2018 Sister Magumba is getting Transferred

We got our transfer text on Saturday. Sister Mabunga will be going to Vista and I will stay in Murrieta with Sister Miles. I know that Sister Miles has been out for about 4 1/2 Months and that she has been in Carlsbad YSA before and this will be her second area.

We had a good lesson with Daniel and Gillian at one of the Bishopric's home. They called Gillian to be in nursery while we were there. This will be her first calling as an adult and she seems excited. We told them that Daniel likes children and would like to go to nursery, and they must have taken that comment seriously. Daniel still needs to recognize a witness about the truthfulness of the Church, but he is reading his scriptures and praying. So his witness will come.
The Bishop and our Ward Mission leader found someone for us to teach. The Raymonds are a Family that have not been coming to Church and they want their 11 year old son to take the lessons and want to come back to Church. They just need to actually do it. The Bishop went with us to have a lesson with them. We had a good lesson and the entire family was there and participated which was awesome.

We got a random phone call the other day from a lady named Kelly. She said she is 91 years old and that she needed help moving furniture. She also lives in Carlsbad. We told her that the missionaries in Carlsbad could help her. The missionaries that helped her called us later and said that she is very elect and they have started teaching her.
Their is a lady that just moved in the ward and is also a recent convert. She has only been attending Sacrament Meeting, because she did not know where Sunday School met. We were able to sit with her on Sunday and helped her get to Sunday School and Relief Society and I think she made some new friends along the way.

Love,
Sister Vernon

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 ...
