ELLAINA’S LETTER
We got to go to the temple this week. The member that drove us had not gone in a while and I think she had a good experience going with us. The temple is awesome and it is great to feel the Spirit.

We went as a district to the transit station in Escondido to hand out water and talk to people. I was a little skeptical about it before, but it went really good. We ended up handing out a lot of Book of Mormons and having really good conversations with some people. One lady had an experience before and said that we were sent from God to talk to her.

We helped a family move that breeds dogs and had like 8 dogs. It was a hard move because they used big boxes for everything and they were really heavy.

We helped at a museum about the trains in Escondido. Apparently Escondido was originally called Rancho Rincon de Diablo (corner of the devil) I do not know if I spelled it right.

We were teaching two little girls who recently got baptized. When Sister Fish sat down there was an interesting noise. They had put a whoopee cushion under her chair.
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 ...
