December 28,2015

Sup, homies. 
This week was a throw away pretty much. Everyone we talked to rescheduled for this week, so we're going to get it done. I got sick on Christmas Eve and I'm still trying to kick it. I can't inhale deep without trying to hack my lungs up, so that could be a problem on bike. I'm talking to the mission nurse and things like that to get some type of solution worked out. Whatevs. It's only six weeks. It's funny, before my mission when someone said that I would be in a rough situation for six weeks I would dread it. Now I can do that crap standing on my head. It'll fly by and I'll be walking off that plane before we even realize it.

Words of Wisdom

December 21,2015

This week was really good. We picked up 4 new investigators. In Moreno Valley it's easy to pick people up, it's hard to get them to church and keep appointments. That's just the way missionary work is. You just go with it and continue to find the person who is going to progress. Our current stat for investigators who get baptized is 16:1. You have to pick up 16 investigators to baptize 1. You need to talk to about 18 people a day to find a new investigator. That's a lot of people. And our mission is one of the lower ones. In Arkansas, the ratio is like 75:1. That would suckkkk. Anyway, we have Christmas this week. It'll be an interesting week. Not a lot of people are going to be home, so we'll have to work harder.

This week was really good. We picked up 5 new investigators by showing them the "A Savior Is Born Video" and they're all really cool people. The trio that I am in is ending. Elder Dunn's new comp is here and it's just Elder Truman and I. It's going to be good to be able to just work in our area from here on out. Being in a trio is hard because it's hard to talk to people without feeling like you're mobbing up on them, you have to balance the two areas and having people ask you why your numbers are doing bad. Anyway, we're getting there.

What a week!

Interesting week, huh? I was sitting in my apartment at about 3 in the afternoon when one of my zone leaders called and said that there was a shooting in San Bernardino  and 12 people were killed with others wounded. It turns out that 14 people were killed over all. We were told that it should not affect our proselyting efforts, but the Elder that I was on exchanges with said that he didn't want to. Understandable, but it didn't feel like something that should have held us back. Whatevs. An Elder who was serving on the other half of the ward went home early for depression, so I'm currently in a trio. It's fun, but more difficult because we feel like a mob running up on people. It's only for a week, so it's all good.

This is how far away from where the attack was.
