Hey everyone!
This was a pretty amazing week. My trainee is way solid and he's a really cool guy. He's not very green either which is a major plus. We had a way good week this week too- we picked up three new investigators who are both really promising at this point- in fact, one of them called us and said she wanted to be baptized. We told her how she needed to come to church and take the lessons, and she was more than happy to. We'll see what happens!
Other than that, I found out that everyone in the zone had no one for dinner on Saturday (stake conference) and I organized a zone dinner in Benicia at a place called "Little Thai" to celebrate Elder Chaichana's heritage. (a Thai [legit Thai- accent and everything elder in our zone.]) He's hilarious and he's in the other Benicia ward. He was in my Fairfield zone too. He loved it and talked to all of the workers in Thai. The food was AMAZING. It was a way fun night- we had a really good time. I'm thinking about moving to Thailand.
Stake Conference was a broadcast with Elder Ballard and Elder Uchtdorf. It was EXCELLENT. There was a big focus on building stronger stakes- and they talked about how we don't need to move to find Zion- Californians Zion is in California (lots of people are moving to Utah to be out of here before California is destroyed). It was really good though and very inspiring. They directed a lot towards the missionaries here too.
Life's amazing. It's been a busy week but it's been spectacular. Missionary work is the bomb and the gospel's true.
Have a good week and send me lots of mail!
Cordially,
Elder B
