Final Zone Conference

Hello everyone!


We had Zone Conference this week, my last one! I gave my "departing testimony" and it felt pretty surreal. We were carpooling with 8 missionaries in a van, which got a flat tire on the way to San Diego. The sisters stopped and we ended up using their car to go back to El Centro, get more cars, then come back because we didn't have a spare tire. Half of the zone walked in late to Zone conference - it was definitely a memorable last one!


Our car had to go in for repairs on Friday.  We were expecting it to only take a few hours, but they needed to order a part so the car didn't end up being ready till Monday evening. So we walked, a lot! Had some cool encounters and also one of the strangest experiences on my mission while walking from place to place in Calexico. 


Andale pues!

El Profeta

Hey everyone,


Calexico has been really nice lately, lots of pretty sunrises and sunsets. Today was super windy, and it's going to start getting pretty hot soon. We watched the Sunday sessions of General Conference with the Rolfes, an awesome family in our ward. On Saturday we watched the morning session at the El Centro Building and I saw Hermano Grijalva there, he was the branch mission leader in my first area! I wasn't sure he'd remember me but he did! Awesome guy. There were lots of great talks in conference. President Nelson's talk was especially relevant to today.


First week already gone! Crazy to think I'll only have a few more.


I love my mission! This is the Lord's work!
