February 25, 2019
This week was Sister Durfee's last week as a missionary. So we worked extra hard teaching people and inviting people to Church. Bill and his niece Kathy came to Church. He was early enough that when we got there he opened the door for us. He really enjoyed it, it is just hard for him to get to Church because of how old he is. Sister Durfee sang a version of Oh my Father at Church and I accompanied her. It was fun to do with her because she is a really good singer.

My new companion will be Sister Rigby, she is from Lehi, Utah and has two transfers left so I might be her last companion as well.
We had a day this week with four lessons and we were running around trying to get to all of them. We had a member that helped us to.
We had a few mini exchanges with a Sister whose companion went home. We went on a college campus with her and it felt weird, but was fun. Love, Sister Vernon

Us with Sister Vockel at Mira Coasta College, we went to the Oceanside pier this morning and then took a lot of pictures,

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 ...
