December 17, 2018 -LOTS OF COOKIES!

My Companion needed to go to the Doctor so we got to borrow another set of Sister's car and drove to La Jolla to go to the Doctor. It took most of the day and it was an adventure. We got to see the ocean too which was cool.

We helped make cookies for the Relief Society cookie exchange. It was fun and we met some new people and the cookies were tasty too. 

We got a phone call from Tim who we met at the ward Christmas party last week. He wanted to take us to dinner. We had a nice dinner with him and Sister Townsend who is his friend that brought him to the Christmas party. However he said he is happy were he is and does not want to take the lessons. It sounds like he recognizes that there is something good about the people in the Church, but does not want to change his life. 

We had all the missionaries in the district come and work in our area for an evening. We had a lot of success from that and found a new person to teach named Petra.

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 ...
