Week 72: Two for One


Well on Tuesday we went to Rancho Cucamonga to get some flu shots. While we were there the office elders were there and both of the office elders are two of my former companions, Elder Nordgren and Elder Bryner. They were busy doing office elder stuff and they invited me to go up into the attic to help restart the router so that was fun. 

We were able to teach a new person on Thursday. His name is Joe and he's pretty familiar with some of our basic beliefs. To be honest he's just a retired guy and doesn't seem super prepared but having someone to teach is better than nothing. 

Well to rebound from last week we have another car story:
We were driving to dinner and we had a few spare minutes so we decided to try to stop by a couple of people that had shown interest in the past. So we drive up to one, knock on the door, no one's home. So we drive up to the next person and as we're doing so I spot a black McLaren lurking in someone's open garage. So we try the person and then on the way back down we "accidentally" make a wrong turn onto the street with the McLaren and when we did the guy had just gotten home from work in his black Lamborghini Huracan.. Sadly we couldn't take any pictures cause it'd be weird to take a picture of someone's garage but you can take my word for it. Some good tender mercies this week.

It's looking pretty hot today but apparent'y there's some rain coming from the south so we might get to see some of that the next couple days! Yay for rain!

The other day we were tracting and we went through a gate to get to this one door and as soon as we knocked a dog came flying around the corner and almost destroyed Elder Worsham but it slipped on a toy Batmobile which caused it to be scared at us. It sat there barking at us while we knocked a couple more times and then we slowly moved towards the gate while it kept lunging at us. We made it out safe though!

Not too much this week. I hope everyone takes it easy and preps for conference coming up this weekend!

Love,
Elder Puzey


Nourish and strengthen us...

Week 10: Stay Safe

Image
Nothing too exciting has happened this week. The other day we went over to Tosin's house to try to fix his little refrigerator. One of our investigators taught us a little about refrigeration because he is taking an HVAC class, so we used our new knowledge to help out our best. Afterwards we went outside and saw a little memorial on the street and he told us that a few days ago there was a man working on a car to make a little bit of money for his family. He had to lift up the car but didn't have anything but a little bottle-neck jack and no jack stands. Sadly the car fell onto him and he didn't have any way of getting out or getting help. It was a strong reminder to me of how fast life can change or end. That's why it's so important that we always live a life in such a way that we are prepared to enter into the rest of God and not enter into an eternal regret. One of the ways that we can always be ready is relying on the Atonement of Jesus Christ. Tosin has been an

Week 35: Missionary work and mechanic work

Image
First off I want to apologize because I took the equivalent of 0/342569243 pictures this week. I'll improve for next week.  This week was an upgrade from last week, not too much tracting was done and we had some good lessons. We were blessed with a couple of new investigators. One is named Dave and he's super funny. When we first ran into him he told us to "stay groovy" as we said goodbye to him. After our first lesson with him we think that he had a lot better understanding than most when we tell people that we believe that we're the same church that Christ established and that we're the only true church on the earth. He told us that what we were suggesting was quite a lot to take in and that it would take him some more lessons and reading and praying for him to know for himself if what we were saying was true.  This week we were also blessed with the opportunity to give some service. On Monday (not yesterday but the week previous) we were able

Week 85: That week between Christmas and New Years when you don't know what day it is

Image
Well probably lots to update on since I didn't really feel like writing much last week. Recap of last week in pictures: 1. We got arrested! Jk some guy got arrested outside and so the doors were locked and we had to bang on them to get in.  2. Christmas eve!  3. Trip to the mall!  This week was pretty good. Can't beat being able to FaceTime the family and talk. On Thursday we did our usual weekly service at the community farm and some of the other elders in the zone have been joining and we've started a tradition of going to eat lunch afterwards so all the Christmas gift cards have come in clutch. On Friday we did some service for Larry. So Larry has an adopted grandson, a granddaughter and a grandson-in-law that live with him. He's getting pretty old so it's hard for him to clean and stuff like that. So we volunteered to help clean up the backyard in preparation for their new years party/BBQ. As we clean up the back porch and the lawn we got to
