Elder Bronson Scott Puzey

On Wednesday I was privileged to be back down in the valley to take another missionary to a doctors appointment. We had an extra 20 minutes before his appointment and the fancy car dealership was on the way so of course we had to stop in and say hi to my favorite people on planet earth. I'll let the pictures speak for themselves. Tender mercies!! Thursday we had a mission leadership conference. It was my very last one so I was given the opportunity to give my departing testimony. Really didn't have any idea what to say so I related it to the last movie I watched with my family before leaving, Transformers. I talked about the quote from Sam's great-great-grandfather, " No sacrifice, no victory! " hahaha. Everyone enjoyed it (I think?).  On Saturday I was able to go down to one of my favorite places in the mission, Chino Hills. Someone I had taught right before I left was getting baptized. I got back together with Elder Worsham since he was the one that was

Well this week was pretty fun! On Wednesday I was on exchanges with Elder Yumisaca who is from Honduras. His accent is hilarious and he's just a very fun guy to be around. Well during our exchange we got to teach these two sisters. Very humble circumstances. There was no furniture in the living room and just a tv so we sat on the fireplace mantle. After a few minutes I felt like I had really known these two girls before. So I started going through the past 23 months to see if I could figure it out. Then their mom came out and I totally recognized her and remember that they had lived with Diane way back when I was in my first area in Adelanto!! I remembered that when Diane got baptized they all came and that's when I met them first. Sooo cool!! Then on Thursday I was on a mini exchange with Elder Kunzler who is actually my grandson because Elder Worsham trained him. I was there for a few hours because his companion went down to the valley with my companion for a doctors

Well it's only been a few days since I last emailed and not too much happened. There was a baptism in another ward on Saturday so we invited Yadira and her family and they came! We invited them to church the next day and they couldn't make it to our service but they went to the ward that meets at 9 so thats good! Other than that I got just under a month left out here. Hopefully it is fufulling and we can finish off on a strong note out here. Love you all! Love,  Elder Puzey 

On Thursday we had our monthly MLC meeting. We left pretty early and we drove down Elder Nordgren and Elder Martin from the Victorville area. We got down in really good time so we took a detour to an exotic car dealership that's in the valley. As soon as I walked in I said that I was in the celestial kingdom. We spent nearly an hour walking around looking at the cars, taking pictures and drooling. It was one of the best hours of my mission. During that meeting we had about 20 missionaries in the mission home with the mission president and wife. We were talking and Sister Taylor saw some Jehovah's Witnesses walking to the front door and said that they were in for a surprise. Right before they knocked the missionaries closest to the door joked about having them come in to join us. During lunch they gave us some frisbees to throw around which was fun. On Saturday I was on exchanges with Elder Palacios. We were driving around and saw a sign on the corner of the road adverti

Transfers today so don't have much time again. I'll go over some of the highlights. We did a lot of service again and most of it has been for people not of our faith or part member families which is awesome! Also bringing back a nice missionary tan On Saturday we watched conference with half of the Mendoza family for the afternoon session. Luckily the kids were mostly in the back so they weren't too distracted.  Back in the first area almost two whole years ago the Samoans used to take us to this place called W Spoon which is an all you can eat seafood, Chinese and hibachi grill buffet. Ever since the start of this last transfer I've been hyping it up to my roommates. Last night we finally sent it. Elder Nordgren and some other missionaries from the Victorville zone also showed up so it was a big party. I don't think I've ever eaten more in my whole life. After letting my first three rounds settle for a half hour I went back for another couple of pla

We had a pretty busy week this week. Because of the recent rain there are a ton of weeds in everyone's yards so we have become Hesperia's number one landscaping crew.  So on Wednesday we had a pretty exciting 15 minutes. Story time: We decided to try someone that had been taught in the past. We get to the house and start walking towards the front door. We spot a kid that's looking at us through the side chain link fence and is quickly accompanied by a German Sheppard. The kid lets himself out before the dog can get out and points us to the front door and tells us "inside". The child then decides to try and get back into the fence at which point the German Sheppard and a Husky bolt past him. My companion is out of there and already at the truck while I just stare at the multi-colored Husky eyes coming in hot to obliterate me. I close my eyes and accept my fate and when I look down I see the dogs smell my feet before they start booking it down the road. T
