Service

This was another crazy but good.  We did some service and helped two families move and helped someone with their yard.  That is basically what happened last week since Wednesday, not a whole lot more then that but us running around trying to help people. 

 

I like this area there is more service and I'm able to do.  It is a pretty big area as well and there are more people to teach

The video for this week with easter coming up this is the video that I feel that I should show you guys.

Elder Bednar

Today is my P-Day because today we went to the temple .  This past week Elder Bednar came to our mission and taught only us missionary's.  It was pretty amazing.  It was a working meeting were he asked us questions and went back and forth it was great.  I got to shake his hand personal.   We went to the temple today and it was pretty great. 

I am also learning to cook here is one of the items I cooked this week.  Turned out pretty good a little greasy. 

I'm going to try to put a Mormon message on my blog every week so here is this weeks.

Service

This week we did some service.  We helped out a member and cleaned up his yard.  Besides that we haven't done much but we have been doing good here and having some great times.We are doing a lot of fun things to help out one of our investigators.  We are helping him build a building on his property for his son to live in. .

Hesperia

I am now in Hesperia in the high dessert and its getting nice and warm already.  We have a car but we are also using our bikes more.   I may have had a few flats already.  It is so much fun up here in the desert.   I was wondering if you found my biking bag that had all my tools for my bike because for some reason right now my front brake is not working but I don't have the tools to fix it but I know how to fix it I just need my tool and my hand pump would be nice.

Everything is going great and I like my new area. 

Guns

This past week we where doing service for a family moving furniture.  They are a super cool family and they had us move there gun safe and the guns.  They had a really nice jaguar so we decided to take a picture by the car with the shotguns and no we didn't shoot them.  ha ha ha mom don't get mad at me. 

I'm now in a new area.   I'm in the high desert in the Hesperia zone.  I think its super cool area and I'm with Elder Sprigg's.  I'm serving around my trainer Elder Spaulding because he is our zone leader so super cool and super excited to get out and work in this area.

Love everyone

Moving

Hi everyone

 

 We are moving apartments to a new apartment that the missionary's have never stepped foot in before.  I cant wait!  The apartment that we have been living in has cockroaches.  When we clean and spray they go to the downstairs apartment and then they find there way back to our place.  Excited to move on Thursday.  We are hard at work cleaning up the place.  

 

We also met two new investigators and they are a really cool family.  I really don't  have pictures because I don't know what to take pictures of because well there is nothing going on.   I don't have a cute animal to take a picture of like Fenway.  :) 

 

Love you all keeping staying strong and read if you can mosiah 2-5 those are chapters and as well if you read about 3 pages a day you will finish the Book of Mormon in about 6 months so I invite you all to do that and try to catch up to mosiah 6, if you do that you will be reading write along with the whole entire Rancho Cucamonga mission.

 

Love you all and have a nice week.

Transfer

This week was good we picked up a former investigator but nothing else really happened this week.  We are now entering into week 5 of my 5th transfer so that is cool.  I might have forgotten to tell you that a few months ago they announce that transfer are going to be 7 week.  That would extending my mission an extra week. 

Mom don't freak out because I was going to come home actually 2 weeks before I hit my 2 year mark because of how transfers end up that way but now it will be 1 week before, so that means I get that much closer to serving the whole two years.  Who knows I might extend my mission so I server over two years and that would be awesome.

Love you guys have a nice week and I would invite you all to be praying for missionary  opportunities and prepare your self to receive these opportunities.   Because as members we need to find people to help with missionary's work as well you are the support system for your friend that will investigate the church. 

Love you all

Elder Thompson
