Week 67 : Mi día como misionero español

Image
Hey everyone how was your week?? My week was pretty good and we were able to have some good experiences. On Tuesday we basically were in meetings all day because in the morning we had our weekly district council and then we got to travel back to Rancho for the 4 week meeting. Basically 4 week is a meeting that new missionaries and their trainers go to to make sure that they don't want to kill each other. Luckily we don't.  On Thursday we FINALLY taught a new person in the area. Her name is Kimberly and we tracted into her last week. We showed her a marked Book of Mormon and told her about it and why it's so important. We talked about our basic belief of Christ's true church being brought back to the earth. We offered her a free (unmarked) copy of the Book of Mormon but since mine looked so cool she asked if she could have it so I had to make another marked copy to tract with.  Okay so back to Thursday. We show up at the time we scheduled (actually we

Week 66: Mike and Lemuel

Well this week really ended off nicely but we'll start from the top. We had Zone Conference on Thursday. It was so nice to not have to plan anything and just be able to show up and enjoy all the trainings and such. There was a lot of talk about how this is the Lord's work and our efforts will be sanctified by Him. It helped me a lot to have that reminder and gained some more motivation back.  Later that night we were tracting and we were up on the side of a hill with some real nice homes. So naturally almost everyone said no but one of the last doors we knock on this HUGE giant comes and opens the door. He had long braided hair and his arms were gigantic, you could easily say he was large in stature. We stumble through a door approach and he said he  might  be interested. So we got his phone number and then we asked for his name and his name is Lemuel! He has got to be a direct desendent from the one and only Book of Mormon villan.  The cherry on top for this

Week 65: It's a fire

Image
There are a couple of fires in the southern California region so as we walk we get some ash on our shoulders and in our hair and stuff. Probably slowly giving us bronchitis, good times.  Not a whole lot happened this week. We've continued pounding the pavement and knocking doors.  We were able to meet with David whom the previous elders were working with. He's pretty close to baptism but he has to quit smoking so that's the main struggle right now. Luckily this week is supposed to be a little cooler than last week.  Sorry for the very short update. Not a whole lot popping right now but we're slowly flipping that around.  Love you all! Remember to feed the missionaries in your wards. Love, Elder Puzey It's so hot I started wearing my hat Bocce Ball for FHE Fires are making for cool sunsets

Week 64: Chino Zone

Image
Well the first week of being in Chino is in the books. Let me try to remember if anything crazy happened. I'm still in a YSA ward so we get to whip around in a gray Corolla. Still thinking of a name for her.  On Thursday we met with our family ward's Bishop and we compiled a list of some part member families to try and teach. One of them had been working with the previous elders for a while so we're hoping to continue working with him and see him baptized soon hopefully. Other than that we weren't left with much.  On Saturday the Chinese elders than we live with had a baptism. The person getting baptized is Chinese but they actually go to our family ward so it was a baptism for us as well, kinda haha. The ward has a goal of 7 baptisms this year and they just hit number four so we're looking to come in clutch.  The other day we got a phone call from a contact in our phone named "Tony 'Thailand Chef'". Turns out this old Asian guy gives
