Hello everyone sorry for the lack of an email last week it was a hectic pday! But I have so many updates I am now in the heart of Oakland and am now a district leader! Being a district leader is kind of hard so far haha leading district councils are stressful and I literally just have so much love for every single missionary in my district I just want all of them to be successful and want them to feel the joy of missionary work. Ofc leaving my first area in Richmond and leaving the hilltop ward wasn't easy I truly built a strong relationship with all of my friends and members there so it was hard But it's all part of the mission experience sadly.  But this new area is amazing! Amazing in the way that there's alot of missionary work to do not amazingly safe or pretty to look at in some parts but it's amazing! And this ward here is absolutely amazing so many loving members and its so diverse it's crazy. The Utah folk would probably drop their jaws but I surely love it...

How lucky am I to have a part!  Spiritual thought today is from Mathew 5. I love the sermon on the mount and I love how simply christ teaches us and how he expects alot from us. Being perfect? Nah you got the wrong guy. But it's possible through him. We can achieve it one day and we can live with our father in heaven. So do what the prophet says and get your family and think Celestial!! I love you all so ...

Hey everyone! I hope you're all having a great morning and great start to the week!  This week in the field has been amazing everything has just flown by. This week was pretty eventful lots of hard work and lots of blessings starting to show! First something that's been amazing is the big family that we've started teaching have been amazing! They're starting to add the book of Mormon onto their scripture study that they already have as a family every night! And 2 of the older teenagers have expressed a desire to be baptized so we were able to invite them to be baptized and they accepted! Their date is January 1st because they said they want to start the new year right! We are so amazed by their faith already!  So besides that amazing family we've also gotten in touch with an old referral we got from missionaries in Oakland and needless to say the referrals from these specific missionaries are known for not being real or the people having 0 interest or just wanting t...
