Sushi Obsessed

Heyo!

My week was pretty good! We were fed a lot more this week and meals are picking up again so that’s awesome. Aaron is correct! But he got his good dressing skills from yours truly. The Jon. Mine are just a blessing I suppose lol. Crazy that we have another nephew. Maria Gil is doing good. She came to church this past Sunday so that was awesome. She should be baptized here in the next few weeks. I should be staying one to two transfers more here. Probably one more with Elder Stringfellow. Exciting to hear the house coming along. Have any photo updates? 

Monday was good we did the usual. That night we got sushi... again. We are obsessed with this place. 

Tuesday was a good one! We had a good lesson with Maria Gil and tried tons of people. We biked a lot. That night we played soccer a lot. I had some goals. Super fun! They are all really good too. We worked out really hard in the morning too so we were tired all day haha. 

I don’t really remember Wednesday. I know we went and tried Lupe in the morning but she wasn’t home. We biked a lot too. 

Thursday morning we went over to President Rascon’s house to study with him. He lives just five minutes down the road. Really close. His house is huge! And super nice! Biggest refrigerator I’ve ever seen in my entire life... he’s super cool and so knowledgeable. I want to go back to the mission some day and stay at his house haha. He invited me! After we weekly planned on our apartment complex office. The office manager walked by and turned on the news for a bit and Rascon came on and we said hey we know him! We ended up talking to her about stuff because she asked us and we had a little lesson with her. We had mutual that night and a member brought all his friends to play soccer so we are getting lots of referrals from him. 

Friday we had district meeting which was good. Elder Stringfellow is the district leader and he does a good job. After we went to get sushi.. we know all the workers it’s funny. We always sit at the sushi bar and talk with all of them. Shen is the waiter and he’s from China! Ryan is the sushi master. He’s from China too. Their English is alright and we have fun. Always making jokes! Silly shen! They know all of our names and bow to us sometimes. We feel cool. Friday night we had ward correlation which was good as usual. Hermano Tenorio our ward mission leader looked like Steve jobs. He had his glasses on with his turtle neck and everything. I’ll attach a picture. 

Saturday we biked so much. We ate with a cool part member family and they gave us a ton of food to take home and stock our shelves so I won’t have to grocery shop for a while. 

Sunday we had church and Maria showed up. That was good. Afterwards we went to a part member family and ate some carne asada. Good stuff. We went to a baptism too of some other elders. Also we tried a bunch of people after. Not really any success though. 

This next week we are having interviews with president and a zone conference. Elder Hallstrom is coming. He spoke in general conference. It’ll be cool to hear from him. My week was good and I hope y’all have a good one!

"The man himself. We did early morning studies with President Rascon."
