15 March, 2016 - Another Late E-mail

Dear Family and Friends,

Again, another late E-mail. So sorry for that things popped up in the office. Anywho...

Tuesday we had our monthly ZDM meeting. It was really good stuff. We were also able to pick up a new investigator named Sylvia and seems solid. Her husband, David, has no interest but will let her investigate. I hope that he will come around. We also met a less-active who is critically overweight and is going through a weight loss program so that's good.

Wednesday I was on exchanges with Elder Merriman. He is from Syracuse, Utah and he goes home in June. While on exchanges, we took a trip to Corona to drop off a bike, picked up 2 investigators, Maria and her 12 yr old son Angel. So for the past 2 weeks, out of the 4 investigators we found, I found 3 of them while on exchanges. Weird.

Thursday we had our temple trip since we didn't make the one we were supposed to go to. We also took Elder Walker since he missed his temple day since he was transferred halfway through. After the trip, we saw the Guyers (Investigators) and the Pacillas (LA). 

Friday we needed to take an emergency trip to Jurupa to turn a 2 man apartment into a 3 man apartment...or should I say 2 woman to 3 woman. We also had our home-share inspection. We failed because Elder Stabler's desk was a mess! I was good. Oh, also there were some homeless people having a physical "Arguement" in the Institute parking lot. While Elder Stabler and Elder Phipps (Marine) sorted it out, I took Elder Walker to work in both of our areas with no luck. Fun stuff.

Saturday we had a blitz in the Zone Leader's area. I have found two potentials for them and one for Spanish. Kinda cool. Afterward, we went on a mini exchange with Elder Merriman to pick up a car in Menifee since Elder Stabler can't drive... that means that we had to drive separately on the way home. Even though we saw each other on the way home, it was still weird to be alone in a car. Then we tried to see Yvonne and Sylvia before dinner where we had to go to the Adult Saturday Night Session of Stake Conference. It was good.

Sunday was Stake Conference. Afterward, we were actually on an assignment from President Mullen to download videos to our phones so that we can show them to people on the streets. Have you seen the video yet? It has Ziba David from NCIS in it. It's kinda cool. Nothing much happened afterward.

Monday was P-Day. We had a special meeting for one companionship in each zone with the Mullen's to learn and receive insights on how to further progress our areas. We also did some yard service for the Armstrong's...that's up in my alley! They had a lot to do and very little time to do it. It was emergency service.

Today we had DDM, did an errand for the Cook's (The Puskas' replacements😢) Now we are E-mailing and plan on trying to visit some people.

Well, that's my week. We are on Week 6 of this unusual 7 week transfer and it is sneaking up quickly. Until next time.

Well, pizza is a easy meal to get so... Riverside has one stake but there is two zones. In my zone, Mt. Rubidoux, There is University Heights (6), Riverside YSA (2), Mt Rubidoux (2), Canyon Crest (2), and 2 of the Deaf Branch and Arlington Heights. The other Zone, Riverside, has the other 2 Deaf and Arlington Heights, Arlington (4), Woodcrest (2), Orangecrest (2) and the Spanish Ward (5-Trio of sisters and a set of elders).Complicated.
