  Hello everybody of the Earth. This week was WILD so buckle up! Monday: We started at a Dr appointment for sister fessler, so we had to drive to Berkeley ๐Ÿคฎ After, we had a potluck with the zone at the Institute building and we played board games, pool, ping pong and FOOSEBALL!!! I will say that their fooseball table is messed up and swapped around so all my MTC fooseball skill went out the window... When we ended our day, we did an exchange!!! Tuesday: I ended up going with Sister Elledge to the Walnut Creek/Lafayette area! We did a service at a homeless clothing closet! We helped people pick out and take what clothes they needed! We had a super awesome lesson with one of their friends and me and Sister Elledge had a really good conversation about being a good missionary but still slowing down and taking it easy! Wednesday: DISTRICT COUNCIL!!๐Ÿฅณ๐Ÿฅณ I love my district. We all get along so we'll and they are so understanding and uplifting! We all went and got In n Out after and a Bis...

  Hey y'all! Sorry for not sending an email last week! Lowkey was just to lazy... well here's my weekly rundown! Oh first a important moment recap from last last week! So pretty much my heart rate has been a little high again so pray for me and some guy proposed to me๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿผ Monday: For P-Day we drove up Mt Diablo (yes dad I drove up a mountain)! The visitor center was closed due to power outages but we still got to be up there which was fun! We went to this really yummy chicken place but it was NOT worth the price in my opinion. For the YSA family home evening we played chair soccer AND QUENTIN PULLED UP!! This is his 2nd FHE!! Tuesday: We did some service for Sister Okawa! Then we had a pretty good lesson with Troy!  Important notes about Troy: he's been taught for 4 years. He was on baptismal date but he felt things were getting in the way. He has a mental limitation that makes it hard for him to comprehend some things sometimes. Were hoping to start building those habits...

  Hello everyone!! This week has been SO GOOD! Here's a quick Lil weekly update; Monday: Super easy simple pday. We had a CRAZY phone call with this lady. She assured us that she wasn't fine as the acronym F.I.N.E (fowled up, insecure, neurotic, emotional) but that she was fine in Christ... so that was odd. We went to the driving range with the YSA for FHE! I can say that I now know how to hold a golf club and how to get a good swing! Tuesday: Yall already know TACO TUESDAY ๐ŸŒฎ ๐Ÿ˜‹  so so good! We had our refuge service which was awesome! We parked super close to the Northgate sisters' car to be loving.  Wednesday: We had District Council and our loving Elders brought us Starbucks Cake Pops!!! Me and Sister Fessler mentioned it to them as a joke and they fr brought them! We also had a yard service with the Elders later in the day and we discovered that Elder Nash has DESTROYED service shoes. We had a couple sweet members take us to Kinders! Sooooo good! I got a half rack of...
