December 31, 2018 Broken Bike

It was great being able to talk to all of you on Christmas. We got to watch the William's kids open presents which was really fun. They were so cute and excited for Christmas.
Starting on Christmas Sister Kovach got sick so we spent a lot of time resting this week, so the week was kind of slow. Sister Kron went out with me twice while her companion stayed with Sister Kovach.


When Sister Kron went out with me and we came back to our apartment it looked like both our companions were sleeping. So we took the crockpot that I was making chicken in and went to eat it in the backyard so not to wake then up. When we got there we texted them that we were in the backyard having dinner and that they could join us. They came out a few minutes later and apparently had not even been sleeping. So we had a nice picnic together outside.
We taught Rachel again, she wants to share what she is learning with her children and her friends which is really exciting. She is nervous to come to Church, so we are trying to set up a Chapel tour with her. Sister Kovach and I decided to would be a good idea to bike to the Church to get ready for our Church tour with Rachel. Sister Kovach still was not feeling the best, but she wanted to go. We got to the Church fine, but when we got their Sister Kovach was worn out. She did not want to bike back, but we did not really have another choice. I asked Sister Kovach if she would go in front of me so we could go her pace, but she wanted me to go first. When I got to a light I looked back and Sister Kovach was nowhere to be seen. I waited a few minutes, because I thought she must have decided to walk up the hill. She still was not there after a few minutes, so I started walking back to her. Then a guy on a bike rides up to me and tells me that Sister Kovach's bike is broken and not rideable. I then walked back to Sister Kovach and the part of the bike that has the chain on it was completely messed up. We ended up calling a member to come get us and left our bikes at a random person's house and got them later with help from other Missionaries. Long story short Sister Kovach does not have a bike right now and says she will not bike to the Bear Valley Building again.

Love, Sister Vernon

July 21, 2019 WHAT I HAVE LEARNED ON MY MISSION

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 ...
